    if u read it, the cop outs there

    If we cannot reasonably arrange a suitable replacement we will pay you a contribution towards the cost of the new equipment. We will normally base this on reasonable usage of the item.

    offer em an indesit, customer says no, offer em £20

    ne reason why they cant do that, cos thats how it looks, therell be some con somewhere, although on the face of it, it looks fantastic

    Re: Hotpoint wont turn on

    i think u misread wot i wrote

    is not the switch that stics, its the pcb that moves and doesnt allow the switch to be activated

    make sure the clear plastic piece behind the two buttons is clipped in, then refit the board ad test it, itll give u ur answer

    hope this helps

    Re: Samsung SR-S20

    well, i think its time someone posted something here that is usefull

    you had to snip the wires to get it out? just unplug it from the other end.. basically, u havent taken it apart correctly

    why remove the fan? why do you get the idea that running some silly , pc based cooling fan , with wires running through the machine, through the doorseal, and to a seperate plug socket, running all the time is going to cure the problem?

    the facts?

    youve gota fault, its a simple fault, it might be an idea if you spent some time READING these forums, the cure for your problem has been well documented

    i gotta point things out here

    as someone has rightly pointed out, the fan is designed to stop during defrost, so as not to blow the warm air around whilst the defrost heater is on, stopping things like BACTERIA from multiplying in ur food, generatin slamonella and lysteria

    then, these wires u’ve chopped.. have u insulated them? is it wise perhaps to leave open ended wires dangling near metal evaporators in a moisture intensive environment?

    you taped the pc fan into the recess? that”ll not last, it cant, its just silly

    i’ll say this ONCE more youve got a faulty termal fuse, thats all… ask the question, or read other threads

    im truly glad the majority of people in here take on board what we advise , im saddened that people find it necessary to disregard advice, and then post poor advice, i mean, really, a pc fan with trailing wires..

    AND u say ur happy to defrost it once evry 6 months ? the average fridge freezer defrosts AT LEAST once every 24hrs,as and when the DEFROST SENSOR/THERMAL FUSE dictates it (the penny dropped yet)

    im not havin a go, only the posts youve made are both unneccesary and possibly dangerous

    i really hope this posts helps people understand thats self modification isnt always a good option.. if the manufacturers dont have a modification, it doesnt mean that joe public should, somethings failed, and needs replacing, thats all!

    Samsung wouldnt touch your fridge freezer now , under any circumstance, because of your self modification…theyre very strict about using genuine parts , regardless of guarantee status – and any self respecting engineer will probaby want to stay away as well

    Re: Stacking a Bosch Maxx WLF2450 and a Classixx WTA3003

    did i read that?
    why not use selotape, or blue tac? ,maybe a bit of no nails between them both?

    honestly, if the washer is gonna spin at 12-1400 rpm with a 6kg load, duct tape isnt gonna be enuf to stop that dryer being thrown off the top now is there?

    if duct tape was enuf, rhen no1 would sell stacking kits would they?

    at very least, id make a metal bracket, and screw the machines together, and thats the safety aspect of it, which, as we say in here all the time is most important?
