Re: Hotpoint WDL520
yes cable ties will repair this better than fitting a new one. its best to shave off some of the plastic ridges so that the tie gets a better grip. the tie also has to be small enough to allow the ratchet bit to fit through the facia.
Re: Smeg DI612CA9 Leaking
im not good with model numbers but i fix loads of smegs for leaking on right side. basically its a failure of the o rings where the matrix locates into the sump. i normally remove right side panel and unscrew the disc inside cabinet.
having removed the matrix i then take off the o rings and build up the thickness on matrix with ptfe tape. this causes the o rings to expand, and with a helping of silicone sealnat i relocate the whole lot and reassemble. never had a failure with this repair.Re: LG Solid Base machines
yes i agree you can get at it through behind the plynth. loosen it from the base and then carefully twist it around with pipes attached and unscrew the pump motor.

e1 aquastop flooded base. probably a leaky o ring on the fill camber.
sorry ive just posted now.Re: Hoover vhv680c condensor dryer
well i could be wrong but ive lately had a couple of these where the wires on the door lock switch were burnt out. it could be that yours is nearly but not quite burnt through but is eventually breaking down under the heater load.
Re: Miele W828 rinse light flashing.
hi mike
thanks for the offer. as this machine is in a semi professional laundry (holiday complex) shes decided to replace it as it is getting on and has now lost faith.
at my last visit i discovered that the fuse had blown again even though it had never actually worked.
its a win win repair most of the time but on this occasion there must be some other factor involved. (motor checked out ok)
keithRe: Miele W828 rinse light flashing.
already done this repair with exact replacement components about six months ago. problem came back and yes both relay and fuse blown. ive repaired the board again as i now carry these parts. but the rinse light is still flashing.
any ideasRe: smeg d/w di409c
this sounds like the dreaded module fault. its ridiculously expensive to repair.there are other threads on forum about replacing the 1mf blue square capacitor on the board. i have had some limited success with this remedy. mostly i recommend they buy a beko.
Re: lamona (beko) HJA 8362
yes clarification would be helpful. however the one i went to today which i have decided needs a module would work if i disconnected the selector pcb wires and then reconnect while powered up. it would then allow selection and cancelling etc. the cycle would even work perfectly. but!! once poered off at on/off switch it was back to all lights on again.
maybe some electronics buff can deduce which main board component may be at fault.
