Re: LG WM1485FHD drum leak
the stability kit was a bit of a joke to be honest, a series of different coloured clips to secure the front panel/lid better
the only other one involved a different shaped weight, but im sure youd have noticed that previously to be fair
Re: How long should bearings last?
as opposed to quality merloni stuff?
honestly, u admit u flog it, then slag it off
lg stuff is some of the best stuff around
the unfortunate part is that people want cheap and because of nasty imports(ie merloni) thats what people are getting
lg machines started off quite expensive, and were found to be sturdy and reliable, but they had to do something, basically because the machines werent selling, hence introducing cheaper components leading to cheaper retail prices
be fair to the manufacturer, look at the bigger picture…. u ever wondered why miele are the price they are? or why a lot of the independents gathered together and came up with the ise? (admittedly ive never come across ise yet, but ive heard theyre built on experience, not price, and that they are reliable)
go and buy an indesit, or a hotpoint…. and while your down the shop, we’ll open a thread just for you, cos believe me, youll be singing lg’s praises when you watch one of merlonis babies jump all over your kitchen, flood you out and explode!
when will people realise that they are at most times, their own worst enemy, quote – “i paid £150 for that and its only lasted 2 years”
just read the posts about hotpoint, and hopefully u’ll see my point
hope this helps someone, somewhere
Re: Hotpoint WF430 Bearing Kit
am i correct in thinking there were actually 2 sizes of shaft on the wma?
the earlier shaft was 35mm, im sure the later one was only 32mm
im sure someone will correct me, but im sure ive come across this one
Re: Hotpoint Aquarius WD420
f09 is an incompatible eprom fault

Re: Leisure Cookmaster 100 CM10FRC
is the clock dead?
reason im askin – ive seen a few of these, and usually it can be clipped back together, but that only applies if its still lit up
ive also seen em where they go off, and its the thermal fuse from the terminal block to the selector – thats really common
Re: Hotpoint Aquarius WMA37
yuppers yer bearigs have failed
and if theyre that bad, ull probably need a tub back as wellRe: hotpoint FFA70 fridge freezer
unfortunately yes
like i said, if uve put fuse in and it doesnt work, it’ll be the pcb
did u leave it a few hours after the fuse was changed?
Re: hotpoint FFA70 fridge freezer
grr. have u tried a fuse? it might work
if that dosnt work, then it might well have blown the pcb
but id just put a fuse in it and see if it starts up first (minus the light of course)
Re: Beko machine with Invensys timer board
im not sure a hospital would buy an indesit or beko to wash their sheets, would you?
different ball game
take it as it is, people dont need hot fill any more, and thats fact, whether we like it or not its been taken out of our hands, we’ll just have to live with it
Re: Samsung RS21DCNS
good pointr600, itll probably end up needing the thermal fuse too
but, time will tell
sometimes it works , others it doesnt,
thats why were here
Re: Beko machine with Invensys timer board
to be fair, hot fills just arent practical and never where
the scenrio?
a 6o degree wash, taking the water from the tank/drawn from combi
now, cos were soft here, we have both the heating and the water on full, well over the 60 degrees the machine needs
so wot happens?
does it take water thats far too hot, and will surely ruin your clothes?
or does it take just cold and heat it to the right temp, taking away any possibilty of customer error?ive had people throw bags of ruined clothes at me, because, they, as consumers thinks it right to run hot water to their machine well over the wash temp
things have changed…. if you were to put a hot fill on , say one of those QUALITY indesits (and ive seen this, btw) the thermistor would sense his within 4 seconds, lock the machine out and just wouldnt work!
not all machines work badly , the basic principal is fantastic.. reduced energy, water consumption, cleaner clothes, quieter spins
its the manufacturing process that lets them down, cheap nasty badly built components, built badly because the consumer wants CHEAPthe technologies fine, just people wont pay for it, plain and simple
things like miele prove the point – theyre the price they are because miele have set out there stall – well built machines at prices to match
u’ll never convince the public that its their own fault theyre suffering!!
finally… a quote… a well used one.. most of us will have heard it in the field
” i bought this machine for £150 CASH and its broke down , and its only 4 yrs old – i want my money back “
say no more, this isnt a rant, just fact
Re: Samsung RS21DCNS
glad it works
although some of the advice ive given in here has lead to some realy nasty mail, im happy that worked for you
Re: Ariston wash/dryer AWD 12 S
youve obviously never fitted the wire hook band
theres 2 door seals, ones wire and hook, ones a springthe wire and hook idea is a pain in the ass, i usually just fit summink like a zanussi spring, that normally works
