Re: Is it just me or is anyone ele quiet?
Yeah everybody l have spoken to in the Bristol area are really quiet and there is hardly any work even with the rentals work …. l just do not believe that Exeter can be any different anywhere else in UK… just talk to the likes of Qualtex and Connect they all say its slow UK wide The price of new machines are too cheap and service parts and labour is too high so selling replacements might be the answer but you still have to compete with the like of AO on da internet Its a hard Trade init!!!!
Re: Tecnik tkd 795/2 dishwasher – cannot remove waste hose
Hi Pippa
Yeah Lean the dishwasher so access bottom panel which usually is held with 4 self tappers then you will see the drain hose on pump it will be a elbow end on pump end so when you purchase a replacement hose make sure the sizes are correct The only drag is pulling the unit from kitchen unit ….Re: DASA membership at all time low?

Re: The eBay revolution
The problem with these so called (we only deal with traders tosh ) parts suppliers ,they are pandering to the general public because the downturn in Domestic Appliance Dealers UK… The Doris or George of this world with a broken machine just has to look up google, and there is a wealth of information on how to repair machines (just remember everybody knows how to repair domestic appliances) They then will buy the parts needed on the web and they are not interested if the part is some below standard from China or some obscure supplier and they will not use a local engineer unless after buying a part they probably find out they have the wrong part and they still have a problem…. When we have brought up the subject on how many websites certain midlands supplier has the answer was “oh not many and it will not effect you” but time and time again customers come in our shop and ask for advise… This particular company has 61 at the last count..The one in Kent has several at the last count.. But it is not going to effect you they scream…. Wanna bet of course it effects us !!!

Re: CURRYS KNOW HOW
If the Currys Know How guys find a moisture choke somewhere on the system or the system is contaminated somewhat or even a capillary blockage that maybe has damaged the compressor ,does anybody on here believe that a Currys Know How Guy is gonna have the equipment to even attempt such a task for an effected repair also remember that some sort of warranty with the repair has to be in place as well ….
