    Re: hotpoint aquarius washer dryer wd46

    id be checking the valve wiring, has anyone changed the valve or had a fiddle round with it?, should be easy to trace the water flow from the pipes to dispenser, where does the water go on the conditioner stage?
    or have they just put the conditioner pot in the wrong place?, it will fill in front left of drawer at start too,
    P.S WD46 is not a valid model number

    not too difficult, but be prepared with plenty of plasters of a good thick pair of gloves!, all done from the back of machine, parts are in shop@, just check the shaft on the drum (especially the brass bush) for wear, if its worn badly then the only solution is a whole new drum, hopefully you have caught it in time

    no, if the old ones come out, its not a problem, as i mentioned, ive fitted many bearing sets without any problems, (so far!!)

    Re: Hotpoint WMA63s

    yep that should be fine for you then, just be sure to tap them in evenly, worth running some emery tape round the sleave/collar 1st to remove any rust, i then give a quick spray with some spray lubricant to help them back in, also be a bit carefull with the seal infront of the inner bearing, will be either metal on 35mm or rubber on 30mm sets, take care that it fits right in tight & flat,

    Think i may be able to offer some help here to Mr T if he is still looking,
    see what you really want is an established business to buy into, with all the right things in place to make it work,
    so
    An established business, comes with a new(ish) van still under warranty, whole van full of stock, (finely tuned over the years to ensure 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}+ 1st visit completion), regular work coming in from a work provider, plus private customers too,
    Also comes with a detached house, (4beds) garden, garage, parking, in an out of town location whilst still central to the work area,

    there you go, dig deep & make me the right offer & all you have to do is drive down here, move into the house, jump in the van & your ready to go!!

    Re: Hotpoint WMA63s

    pmac, just a check first, but if you say the inner drum ‘drops’ does it sound noisy if you turn the drum by hand whilst supporting the inner drum?, as i have seen these supports break on their own, which often gives the knocking noise and would also mean the drum ‘drops’, the other way to check if its bearings or support, is, remove the top,(with the plug out of course) move the inner drum up/down where the play is, if the pulley on the back moves with the play its bearings, however if the pulley does not have the same play, it will be a broken support

    Re: Hotpoint WMA63s

    hi, not the worst to change, personally i do 50/50 bearings/rear half complete, depends how it looks when you strip it down, drum needs to come out, (not hard), then seperate the 2 halves, (easy), only when you get the inner drum out will you know if you need a spider,
    the bearings can be knocked out & replaced, easier way is to fit a new rear half, with bearings already fitted, plus a new seal for between the 2 drum halves,
    All the parts can be obtained from the shop@ here,
    As for being worth repairing, the WMA are a well built machine so i would say its worth doing,
    Any questions you can pm me
    Hope that helps

    I am not an expert.

    My further suggestion as to buying an inexpensive replacement and taking out a warranty cover is again simply MY route – and a valid one.

    hotpnt seems to want to have a pop at me – I’m unsure why. How can he be assured a cheapie really will break down several times a year.

    Im not taking a ‘pop’, but in answer to your question as to how can i be assured of cheapie machines failing, well, many years of experience trying to patch up 2 year old cheap machines that are literally falling apart, as also mentioned by iadom. its not fun trying to fix something that you know is so badly built it will fail again soon
