    Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?

    can i just point out once & for all ‘con’ is not foreign for anything on these machines, it is the conductivity sensor, ignore it, it aint a problem 😆

    Re: Advice on Hotpoint RLA21 – leaking

    yep, simon is spot on, its still blocked, the fridge cannot produce too much water for the drain, its just a straight tube out the back, if you poke a long straw or cable tie down you will see it comeout the back above the compressor

    hmmm, thats true to a point, but if the customer says ‘get out a aint paying £200+’ then you’ll find many manufacturers will take the charge instead

    but its all true, at a time when many are encouraged to carry out ‘economical’ repairs,

    Re: Advice on Hotpoint RLA21 – leaking

    hi, is the water coming out from inside? if it is then the small drain is still blocked, piece of wire down it will shift any debris, you should be able to pour a small amount of water down it to check, if its leaking at the back then check the tray ontop of the compressor is still there & not split, worst of all if its wet under the base of the fridge then it could be the insulation failed

    hi, b4 you go too deep, if you were washing bath mats were they the rubber backed type? as it sounds like pump is blocked somewhere as you say it would not empty at all

    Re: hotpoint wd420p frozen in time!

    well it could be a number of things then, these machines are software driven, a fault like as simple as a motor wire broken can cause havoc, but could also be the whole motor failed, a heater problem or the main control board faulty, even a fault with the dryer system can affect the wash programme, i guess you have to weigh up the costs/value, if you choose to call hotpoint it will cost you a fixed £90 regardless of whats needed so may be your best option if you dont want to have to go buy a new machine

    Re: I just had to say…

    yup, i really think the job has changed in last 5-8 years, used to have ur regulars, 2-3 times a year, pleased to see you, xmas cards & tips, now can go days at a time without seeing a reg customer, as for the OAP i’d haave follwed him home discreetly & repaid in kind one evening!, but that just twisted old me (but its that customers that drove me to it, honest!!)

    hi, when you select the prog are you choosing the extra rinse? and are the lights on solid or flashing?

    more like ‘i called a guy out he said there was something in the drum and it would cost £35 to do, so i took advantage of the free estimate & had a go myself’
