Re: Hoover HD Vison

the heater gets a slight earth leak, which fools the machine into thinking its still full of water when its not, a new heater is required

Re: Hoover SE147 Washing Machine fault

1 ) unplug the machine
2 ) remove back cover
3 ) disconnect wiring from heating element
4 ) use multi-meter to test element – dead circuit
5 ) slacken pinch nut and remove element
6 ) purchase new element (£23.50 from local supplier)
7 ) fit new element in reverse order to above
8 ) replace back cover
9 ) Plug in machine, test… no error codes

So, Hoover wanted to charge me in the order of £118 for an engineer on a single visit to come and diagnose problem and use “5 yr parts warranty” to replace parts… or sign up to a Direct Debit of £13.50/month to have access to multiple engineer visits…

Simple arithmetic!!! 😛

Not happy that Hoover refused to give me enough info to fix the machine myself 👿 , so Thanks to kwatt for confirming the meaning of the flashing code I had… 8)

im sorry, but your missing the point…

so hoover ,in fact, any company should indeed set up a multi million pound service and technical department so they can just tell people how to fix their machine, for free, using (probably) pattern parts bought from somewhere else?

how do you feel when people devalue your job, or in fact ur need to make money and survive?
however, your fault is pretty simple

take out your multi metter and check out the components that are in use during that part of the cycle

i know ull think im being cynical, but people sometimes need to look at the bigger picture, rather than thinking everything should just be free all the time.. do you work free?

Re: Hoover WMH 147 df timer problem

if you can manage to get the knob off, spray some electrical switch cleaner into the selector switch behind, refit the knob, and spin the knob 2/3 times.. prob solved

Re: Baumatic Now Recruiting Nation wide

well, seems im not good enough for baumatic.. a 3 page cv , emails and some correspondence, seems i wasnt even considered for an interview

given the fact that theyve managed to now employ the worst performing engineer in our district, whos also well into his 50s, its kind of worrying , insulting even

bitter pill to swallow that, now im frightened for the future

comet dont want me, and it seems no1 else does either

thanks baumatic, didnt even give me a chance

Re: comet

what an absolute crock of sh** thrown at us this morning, tossed aside like an empty crisp packet by a bunch af amateurs

90 days consultation, followed by (upto) a 12 weeks notice period, then goodnite vienna

no help, no sympathy, 11 years of graft , back breaking work, and defending ourselves count for nothing

basic redundancy, no ex gratia payments and not even a hand shake from john clare, hes already forgot about us

mark my words, comet wont last 12 months after these money mad asset strippers finish with it, i just hope the public get wind and steer well clear

[helo_75]

Re: comet

ft online quote, about john clare

He intends to outsource Comet’s in-house repair and home delivery operations to cut costs, stating: “These services can be performed more competently by others, whose core competency it is.”

great
