    Re: British summer time

    Just found via a small splash screen on teletext, all the auto time stamp signals are up the spout in certain areas, this one included. I reckon that makes it around 20 timepieces for me to alter . what am I going to do with this extra hour of life I have just been give. 🙂 The video and the mobile have both failed to update so they must recieve the same signal.

    Re: British summer time

    I’m puzzled now, I thought that the clocks are due to go back tonight/Monday am. I always though they used to be put back on a Sat/Sun . Strange thing is my PC clock is showing 12.52 yet my video that auto updates and teletext on TV are showing 13.52. I have pinged the atomic clock utilty on my PC after resetting time to 13.52 and it reverts to 12.52. Normally you get a warning that the time has been reset for BST or GMT or whatever they call it when you first boot up after the time change but I have had no such message?

    Dave.
    Is this what TDS info calls “The new ATB system” ?

    Not sure about all Zanussi models but I had one last week that I cured by cleaning out the gunge, however checking on TDS on this one model reveals two different kits, one for the “New Structure” & one for the “Evolution” type machines, you can tell which is which by looking in the sump/base.

    Model was a DWS909

    The base does come off , but for safety & legal reasons we cannot go into detailed instructions on dismantling your machine. Make sure you remove the plug before attempting any repair, and put some towels on the floor if you are going to tip it over onto its left side 😉 .

    Re: Hotpoint 9949 Washer/Dryer Fault

    9949 is a Micro Profile machine. Nylon drum etc. If the drum is nice and quite when you rotate it by hand and the overall condition looks good then it should be well worth having it looked at. The FHP motor is a good one generally. I would still bet on a loose contact such as a wiring break. As Bob says motor plug connections are a very common cause. Be very careful if you attempt to have a look more closely at these, all the wires a white, also there is a special tool for refitting the wires back into the plug socket correctly.

    Re: Hotpoint WD72P selector buttons not functioning

    Or the grandchildren fiddling with the buttons, how many times during school holidays do you go to machines with the spin cancelled or the rinse hold selected, only for the customer to say, ” I never use that button” 😥 🙂

    Re: Newish Hotpoint D/W

    Although it is a new machine (6 months) it is still the same basic pile of Indesit pap inside. I suppose if I order both the ferrule and the sump ( quite cheap, now there is a surprise ) it should be obvious how it comes apart. The manuals for the previous model give strip down instructions for everything other than the sump. 😥

    Module configuration, this is for a WD71 but it is the same sequence. Hold down the A,B,& D buttons, press the On button, display will show WM1000, press the A key to scroll through the options when WD1200 or WD1400 is shown press the the Start button, display should show ‘English’, press the start button again and display should show ‘Select Programme. Programming is now complete.

    Not had any circulation pump problems on the Hotpoint version of this, not had many calls to them, only real problems have been door leaks and mouse damage to the seal on the water direction valve seal, the GDA BF50 circ pump is listed on Partfinder as £96.90 ex vat.
