Re: Hotpoint Twin Tub Spin spigot/shaft assy
Will give them a try, this machine is one of the last produced and other than the spin bearings is is first class order. We are all familiar with the older people on their own who dread the thought of an automatic including the major expense involved in this case to plumb a machine in.
NB. Just tried and the number has been changed to 01443 743370.
They don’t have any either. 😥
Re: Creda C361E Timer
Several different control units for this cooker, to identify we would need full model number such as C361ED and the first two numbers of the serial number.
Definately not a DIY repair.Re: hotpoint wm64 spin problem
It may be motor brushes, a fairly common, normal wear & tear fault.
There can also be several other causes such as loose/broken wiring, armature or control unit faults.
The degree of difficulty depends on your expertise and we have no knowledge or proof of that.
If in any doubt try here
Please remove the mains plug if you intend to go further.
Re: Hotpoint Ultima – problem in drum
A thought has just occured to me, have you at any time had the drum assembly replaced on this machine to cure a noisy bearing problem, if yes then you will more than likely need the MK2 lifters, if not then you are one of a very select few. 😉
MK 2 lifters are much easier to fit , part No:1603824.
Re: Hotpoint Ultima – problem in drum
Definately worth a try, the alternative is a new drum or a new machine. Might be worth purchasing 3 lifters and keep one as a spare. Simple fitting instructions come with the fitting kit I mentioned.
Although this can be done from the front without any dismantling, still best to remove the plug whilst you do so.And remember to keep the trainers well away from the machine unless you are wearing them.
If you have difficulty obtaining these parts drop an e-mail to spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk
Re: hotpoint 9605 top loader pully problem
In 37 years of dealing with these I have seen several gearbox pulley failures 😉 Although motor clutch pulley is far more common. Sometimes the pulley is loose on the shaft but more often the shaft itself is loose inside the oil seal and the pulley shaft has a lot of sideways movement., if so then the repair would be a new gearbox which is obsolete.
Re: Hotpoint Ultima – problem in drum
Sorry to dampen your spirits but your machine has the earliest Mk1 version of the lifters.
These are not interchangable with the later types.Part number is 1603296, there is a special fitting tool kit part number 5600224. There are no screws involved.
The bad news is that the success rate of new lifters, even when fitted with the special tool kit and plastic rokut rivets is ‘variable’ and that is something of an understatement.
If you do manage to fix them, do not wash trainers or any other small loads of heavy items.
Not technically difficult but if I was to do this repair I would advise the customer that I could not guarantee the work.
Re: Multiple capacitor failure on creda C dryers
Different timers, will have to check delay intervals on both types when I get the chance.
Re: Hotpoint WM12
That machine is pre digital produced in Sept 1994 you do need 1604812 for an 800 machine, it has obviously had a faster spin motor fitted at some time.
Eight years old, 🙂

Re: Multiple capacitor failure on creda C dryers
Machines are almost identical in construction, drum is a 1701769 for both the Creda 37754 and Hotpoint TDC30 etc. The only real differences are the cosmetics on the front. The drum on the one I went to today was as free as any you will find.
