Any tips on fitting the door seal or is that straight-forward?

Fairly, drain hole to the bottom, 😉

Re: Identifying Date Codes and Serial Numbers

Recent Hotpoint Dishwashers have started to use the Indesit format,

Serial No. 9 10 02 0895 for example is

First digit = year of manufacture – 1999
Second two digits = month of manufacture – October
Third two digits = Day of manufacture- 2nd October
Fourth remaining digits = Build number that day – 895

The ‘Code’ number on the rating plate identifies the factory etc , vital for correct parts ID.

Hotpoint two digit date codes from December 2003 to July 2006 start at 24 for December 2003 through to 55 for July 2006. Generally Hotpoint date codes only went up to 96 then started again. Many years ago some machines did go past 96, but I have not seen any for a long time. You can work back from DC24-Dec 2003, to get any earlier months.

They are normally the first two numbers of the serial number. Many years ago they used to be the last two numbers, often in bold or slightly apart from first five or six digits.

Re: Hotpoint 9536 Washing Machine Door Seal Replacement

Are you sure about that model number? is it 9524/5/6 or 9538/9 . You are thinking along the right lines re the front panel. 😉 the only clue I can give you is that there are screws behind the soap drawer and the timer knob. For legal reasons we cannot give you ‘specific’ details, other than to tell you to make sure you remove the plug first.

Re: Hotpoint WMA61

If the motor is tight I normally put the mounting bolts back in a couple of turns then tap on the bolt heads, never failed to shift one, and I always remove the facia and the top panel completely, for the few screws involved it makes the drum removal so much easier.

By eck, old dog, new tricks…done that for years, dip the end of the hose in a cup of very hot water to soften and it will replace most basic dispenser inlet hoses, and you will get 3 to five hoses for the 75p cost of a single fill hose.

Re: Hotpoint WMA61

My own machine is a WMA63, did a drum last year on it, I just like to remove all the delicate bits out of the way, if you know what I mean Matron. 😆

Re: Indesit DI67 fault Pre Wash Cycle indicator Flashing

softus wrote:Hm, yes, I take your point. I accept that I used the wrong word.

The “tipping it over” action has resulted in the machine functioning, apparantly normally.

I would like to trace the leak, and I wonder if you are able to offer any guidance on the correct sequence of dismantling the appliance?

Thanks
Tim

You should make sure that the filters are clear, also if you are using 3 in 1 tablets or even 4 in 1 tablets then it would be advisable to use separate detergent, rinse aid and salt. The 3 in tablets can cause over soaping resulting in water getting into the base. There are many places internally that can leak and for safety reasons we cannot go into step by step instructions, please remember to remove the plug if you intend to investigate further.

Morning NWAR :wave:

Re: Indesit DI67 fault Pre Wash Cycle indicator Flashing

The ‘leaning over’ method is not a solution, if it cures the fault temporarily you still need to find the cause of the water ingress into the base.

Re: Hotpoint WMA61

I normally remove the facia complete with module and put it to one side when doing a drum/bearing change. Just make a note of the connections beforehand.

[iadom]

Re: WMA44 no motor action

Module is behind the facia. If you look in the error codes thread you will find a ‘last error detected’ routine. Also check the wiring harness near the front, it is common for this to chafe through here.
It should be obvious if the brushes have worn down.

Re: Indesit DV62ix Timer wiring

Gareth, Indesit will not even give this info to the trade. There should have been no reason to remove the wiring from the timer to change handle or front console. You must have more faith in your memory than I have in mine. 😉

You may get lucky by trying Repairs@ and find a local engineer who may have worked for Indesit in the past, failing that then I am afraid that you will have to go to Indesit themselves. 😥

Re: AEG Lavamat 561

Quick question, not done one of these before, looks as though the front panel will come off, is that correct?
