ParticipantI would say flow meter. Have had these a few times.

ParticipantLock the door tabs when the door is open, semi close the door and the door will then slide up and off if you have locked the hinges correctly.
When you have the door apart, note the orientation of the glass panels.October 30, 2025 at 5:42 pm in reply to: Re: Bosch WTB84200GB/09 Series 8 Condenser tumble dryer #494054Kentish
ParticipantBlocked condenser would be my immediate look at point.

ParticipantNo need to drop the sump off.
if there’s a single screw into the rear of the motor between the 2 black rubber studs, remove it.
Dishwasher onto its back, then remove the base plate.
Disconnect the motor and element wiring and tidy out the way.
Disconnect the pressure switch wiring, and tidy out the way.
Put a towel under the spray tube hoses, remove the hose clamp and disconnect the hose.
Remove the spray arm tube clamps, and ease the tubes off carefully.
Put a screwdriver up behind the motor to ease the back panel away and ease the motor down and out.
Once you have cleared the impeller and housing, refit in reverse but use WD40 or similar to help the spray tubes slide on and the motor entrance slide into its seal.
A little lube on the rear mount rubber also helps.
Refit the rest, standup and test.
Obviously you should have unplugged it before doing anything.
The towel is to try and protect the relay and any other electrical from any water that might flow out when pipes are taken off.Thats how I do it.

ParticipantHaven’t had any problems myself with it.

ParticipantI use Quickbooks, am Ltd and VAT registered. Entering invoices on Quickbooks is a doddle, as is expenses. I would imagine its like my VAT return, it calculates it and can do it all. My accountant just passes her eye over the figures to check.
I dont see anything wrong with trying to stop tax dodging.Kentish
ParticipantSomething that’s always worth checking is how much salt are they putting in.
All too often people stop putting salt in when the water in the chamber starts to flow out.
I always advise to fill the salt right to the top of the container, and to top the salt once a week as everyone forgets things.Kentish
ParticipantI would check for debris in the wash motor impeller.
or possible flow meterKentish
ParticipantFound some on Amazon of all places

ParticipantDid changing the pump quieten it down? The drain hose on these machines has a nasty habit of blocking at its internal elbow. I haven’t yet managed to clear one due to the shaping and internal diameter changes, so I just change the drain hose.
these are Smeg machines, and the Smeg parts through Aswo are way cheaper than the Bosch labelled identical parts.Kentish
ParticipantIt’s most likely the compressor, could be a spring broken inside. It could also be noise transmission through the pipework to the cabinet.
Have you tried tweaking the condenser pipework? Failing that how about releasing one or both of the compressor mounting plates?Kentish
ParticipantSounds like the twin dose sensors. They also changed the smal black hoses as well.
Twindos when it works is great, but not so much if it plays up. Be very careful with the small PCB that plugs into the plastic housing, it and it’s connector is very delicate.Kentish
ParticipantI would say 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of my work is through property management. I use Quickbooks, and any invoices still owing after 30 days get a reminder sent through Quickbooks. A few times it’s got to 2 or 3 months, but agents that do that soon get told I won’t do anymore work for you.

ParticipantI use a Keter plastic fold out table. Double oven, ovens or stacked dryers are often slide out onto it. I used to use a workmate but the Keter is much bigger and better.
What I don’t do is get anyone else lifting with me, the risks of injury to me or them are to great and the issues that can create.December 19, 2024 at 10:58 am in reply to: Washing machine door seal replacement without removing front panel #491928Kentish
ParticipantI have replaced many door seals without removing front panels, as they aren’t/weren’t removable.
Even now, I try and replace them with the minimum off parts removing, and have never removed just a door to change a seal.However, the important point is what your glossing over, and that is the radiator is in the way so they will have to have it removed so the job can be done. If someone is stupid enough to place something like a radiator i the way, they must deal with the consequences.
