    Re: Possible Heat Pump Dryer

    Whilst not wishing to step on my good friend Don’s toes I would be wary of using any current Hotpoint dryer of this type if it is going to get heavy use.

    Although the fire risk problems have been sorted it is still using the same rear drum bearing that is very prone to failure. the old square bearing used to fail rapidly but the current teardrop bearing is still not up to heavy use and wears right through leading to drum shaft failure if not caught in time.

    Give us the full model (Enr) number from inside the door and we can tell you. 😉

    Re: Zanussi Washing machine

    If the alloy drum support has corroded or fractured then a read of THIS article will help you to understand why I mentioned the constant low temperature washes that can lead to this type of failure.

    Here is an example, this one was from a high quality, German made AEG machine as well. 🙁

    Just tried again to test, still timing out using Edge, got it to load using Chrome but it was still mega slow. 🙁

    Cheers Don, I got as far as entering the product number and noticed it came up with that model number but the website froze at that stage every time I tried it this morning.

    Re: Zanussi Washing machine

    The likeliest possibility given your description and the fact that it has had light use, possibly nearly all at low temperature is that the drum support has snapped.

    A massive job on some models and a completely uneconomic total drum change on others.

    Would need the Pnc or product number from inside the door to check if yours has a sealed drum or not.

    Unless you can see if the outer drum is in two halves secured by lots of screws or has a welded seam.

    Pnc number begins with 914******

    Re: hotpoint wmud 963 Error Code: F18

    F18 is a communications error so if you are very, VERY lucky it could just be a loose connection between the main power pcb in the base and the console pcb.

    If not then the main pcb is likely to be at fault, part number is C00296189, list price is £140.50 unprogrammed.

    To programme it yourself you will need a £19.00 smart card and a £145.00 smart card reader. 🙁

    Cost wise the best option is to send it off to EMW Electronics. 😉

    Puzzled me as well, cannot be 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain but I’m sure the plug had three wires in it.

    Agreed, it’s a funny looking device, almost looks like a small reed switch in the top.

    Have had a look at the wiring diagram which is not much help and cannot find exactly what the ‘frequency range’ of this capacitive sensor should be?

    The plastic tube has an inner sleeve that must move up and down with the water level.

    I have one on order and will report back. 🙂

    Taking one of the hinges off helps, usually the top hinge.

    Re: Creda Oven Door Roller Catch Replacement.

    door panel is held by the two screws at the bottom and a couple at the top, roller latch is part number C00235548 but THIS ONE

    Should fit perfectly as well.

    With dodgy bearings it wouldn’t make sense unless you can afford to throw £50 away. 🙁

    What happens if you unplug from mains for a few minutes.

    TBH if the bearings are on the way out then the January sales sound like the best option. 😉
