i pulled a condom out of a washer last year… the bloke was shocked
hed been away for the weekend, the kids didnt live at home anymore, and he’d had the snip!!
ive been back to the machine since… they werent together anymore as a result…..
next time ill say nothing me thinks
if the filter doesnt come out easily, theres something in there blocking it
unplug the machine, tip it back, remove the screws securing the pump, take off said pump, remove back pumpbase, refit, refit pump, presto.. easy really
just remember u need to unplug it for sure, and have lots of towels
well of course u could have had worse luck… the machines could have been indesits!!!
keep smiling, things can only gety better!!!!
Re: HOTPOINT TC71P – stinks
there’ll be fluff stuck somewhere
i mean, have u tried clenaing the condenser?most people do, i just gotta ask
also clean the chamber where the condenser fits
also, when u pull out the fluff filter, which im sure youve cleaned, look down the hole, clean that out as well, as well as inside the door panelthe only other place (and u NEED TO UNPLUG) is the rear heater panel, its on the back (obviously) and sometimes, moist fluff will stick in there, try removiing it and give it a wash, just remember to make sure its dry when u refit it
Re: HOTPOINT TC71P – stinks
😀 oh joy.. i had one of these not to long ago , in a farmhouse, ‘up lakes’
horrid smell, really nasty
turned out a little field mouse had made its bed for the night under the fan in the back…
customer said they heard a crunching noise , just before the room filled with smoke and the smell appeared
oh the joy of scraping that little mouse off the heater… and the fan.. and the drum.. and the back panel
must have been quick for the poor thing
:rolls: :rolls:
tut tut tut
was the red light flashing?
had a few of these hobs, customer was wiping it over and managed to activate the child lock
simple cure is to press the on/off button for 5 seconds, and it will come back on
well, all the 1703273 is change the front wheels to plastic support pads
it may have already been doneyoud probably be better just fitting the belt and a new jockey wheel if its been done
incidentally, its the door lock that does that
check if theres a hole in the door seal
shame, but its very expensive to repair
hth
from what i can see, an rf 61 has 2 THERMOSTATS
freezer – 261092
fridge – 2600413not really surprised u cant find any thermistors, to be honest
well, according to gias website,(and theres an actual pic!) its shows it as the pcb, with 3 leds and other things, with a slim white plastic piece attatched to it, which then screws on to the bezel.. is that it?
if it is, the part number is 41010331
id ask hoover first… but its quite new that, cant be over 12 mths old?
well, first of all, id be checking the front vent
take off the kick strip on the bottom, it might well be clogged up with muck..
the trasum’s getting hot, thats possibly why the machine isnt cooling properly… there is a cooling fan which could well have failed, its external, and is seen when removing the lower back panel.
plug out if your gonna check it plz
