Re: Hotpoint oven UY46K Main oven door hinges
The commercial code should be on the rating plate on the front but the Hotpoint ones often fade or peel off.
The commercial code for the UY46K is 031634
for the UY46KMk2 it is 053613
for the UY46K Mk2(T) it is 045313Those codes will be part of a slightly longer 11 digit number often with several zeros at the end. The commercial code is usually the 3rd to 8th number of the larger number.
Re: Hotpoint oven UT46K Main oven door hinges
Is it a UT46K or a UY46K?
Bad news if it is a UY46K, there are three versions of UY46K, the commercial code is needed to ID correctly.
Unless you can find out if it is a UY46K, a UY46K Mk2 or a UY46K Mk2(T)
The last two have a different hinge to the UY46K. 🙁
Re: Hotpoint LST 216 A UK – No fill
To test the fill valve you need to get to the other end of the hose and trace the two wires from the valve that are connected to the main pcb in the base. If the fill valve tests OK and all the wiring and connections are sound then it could well be the module that is faulty. 🙁
Re: Hotpoint LST 216 A UK – No fill
The very limited info we get is as follows.
2 + 3 Time out filling. Customer’s tap, Inlet valve, connections, timer, water
turbine.The fill valve is incorporated into the fill hose aquastop at the tap end, not a common failure.
Fill valve resistance should be approx. 4k ohms. Can be tested from its connections on the main pcb, those connections also need checking.
Re: Hotpoint LST 216 A UK – No fill
Air break turbine is built into the fill chamber, part No: C00256546, quite an easy part to change.
Re: Hotpoint Wf860
Especially as it has a 3 phase motor, good luck with changing the brushes.
The fact the ‘used’ pcb came from the same model does not mean it will work, there are at least two or three different ones used on the same model which are not interchangeable. Using serial number and commercial code is the only way to be certain.
Also different motors with different wiring connections used as well.The motor wiring connections on these machines are very weak and are an area known to cause problems.
In truth I think you where a little kind to yourself, “Silly me” is not the term I would have used. 😉
I know they say that when you are in a hole stop digging but you have long since gone past that point. 🙁

‘Most other parts’ what other parts?
Was the main power pcb new, was it correctly programmed for your machine?
If you have done as much as you say then it would be almost impossible for anyone to guess exactly where the problem now lies. 🙁
Re: Howdens Hja8701 Washer dryer
Certain Hotpoint machines have used a ‘thermal spin’ cycle for years. 😉
Re: heating element resistance values
The length is every bit as important, looking at the pictures I would expect the width of the seal end to be the same.
The one I have measures approx. 75mm across the metal plate.
Re: heating element resistance values
That is the same belt as the ones you have linked to, the belt size is usually quite clear on the outside of the old belt.
I have found one of those Hoover elements in my stock and have attached a picture that may help.

Re: heating element resistance values
That element looks remarkably like an old Hoover element,
Re: heating element resistance values
No idea about that machine?
The belt should have its size stamped on it so any belt of the correct size would be fine.
Re: heating element resistance values
I would say 99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain a new heater would fix it Evren. Resistance doesn’t matter, it’s the insulation reading that is important.
Re: Restraining Strap Attached Between Shocker and Drum?
To the best of my knowledge the Electra, sold exclusively by the Electricity Boards was made at various times by Zanussi, Philips/Whirlpool, Creda, Hotpoint and possibly others but the Hotpoint one is the only one with the motor on top of the drum. 8)
Re: Restraining Strap Attached Between Shocker and Drum?
If the motor is on top of the drum it is a Hotpoint machine, the full suspension kit for that is HERE
I have just checked a few of the older Creda/Electra models on the parts software and they are all listed with around 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of all parts obsolete. 🙁
