You need the product code for that one (explained here) as there are multiple versions but, given it worked after moving it, a kinked hose or blocked outlet perhaps? Or a dodgy drain pump as it will drain to clear the sump before starting.

In that oven, I think the 12NC is 857912415500 from that image, there’s only the upper and lower elements in it that are as follows, cheapest options:

Yes Don but as well you will know, what they say is 10kg and what actually *is* 10kg of useable load are or can be two different things.

Finding out why there’s a comms error and fixing it as, they do not explain the reason why, only what it is.

If you get an E03 error and, I presume that’s what it is as there’s no mention of an audible alarm, then it’s a water tank fault. What about it, no ideas given just that it has a problem al it says is, “Aqauswitch connector is disconnected” and that’s all there is.

Oh yeah, you mean the tax that the Tory party voted down a Labour motion to try to get it removed in 2015, that one?
The MPs now bragging about how great it is, all too often the very same MPs that voted against it five years ago, now it’s brilliant and benefit as a result of Brexit. It’s not. That is false.
Don’t believe it, go check Hansard as it’s a matter of public record. 😉

Sadly, that is the reality on the nail Dave.
If you add admin and friction then that will add costs. Those will have to be passed on.
Atop that you have the pound losing value against the Euro, not as bad as I thought it may do but, still, it will also push up costs and it already has previously though most people will have forgotten that now but, not long after the referendum they rose because of that.
Many retailers, especially high profile ones that don’t want to p**s off at least half their customers as 52{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of them voted for this will mamba pamby PC say things like, it won’t affect things too much etc, then whack the prices up anyway. Probably on the sly a few weeks later one we’ve all swam round our tanks a few laps and forgotten.
But the cold hard reality is, prices will rise.
As well as many things being harder (if possible) to get.

This is not the place to ask, if it’s for a return to UKW or whatever please email spare@ulwhitegoods.co.uk with the details.

Sorry, this stuff is frustrating me hugely with most people saying it’ll all be okay but many/most that do so not having the first clue how hard it actually now is as they don’t have to deal with it. And, damaging, in the middle of a pandemic, the worst recession in 300 years etc, etc.
Some of the delays, it’s like going back in time 20-30 years, weeks to get some stuff to the UK. And that will affect all repairers at times, directly.
Customers not understanding that there’s this little pandemic thig slowing things immensely then atop that you pile on freight and customs issues and you’re gonna run into (more) problems, big ones. Some telling me that the pandemic is over, that’s not a thing and Brexit won’t affect imports etc to which it takes me all my time to not tell them to turn on a freakin’ TV and watch the news or stop reading the Sun, Express etc and read some actual balanced independent news, not fictional propoganda.
Honestly, some of them are just plain fruitloops, it’s probably little wonder they fell for this nonsense.
All the EU companies are doing is adhering to the law as presented to them by the UK and/or local restrictions etc that can vary by the member state and applying it, they will have to eventually anyway, may as well get used to it from the get-go. Then, probably like us finding it’s too much hassle or cost and telling us to stuff off, just as we are being forced to do unto others.
That’s my view, if this is how it’s gonna be then we may as well take the hit now and move on. If that causes pain to people then sorry but it is what it is, we don’t make the law and unlike some apparently, we must abide by it or risk sanction. If it turns out that to do so is too costly or burdensome then when it hits those points it’s no longer commercially viable just as you all will do when a call is too far away or a machine that’s too much bother, you just cut it loose.
And that’s where we are along with many others, carrier companies and so on… it’s too much hassle and/or costly so, it’s cut.
But we hold all the cards, easiest deal in history, not leaving the customs union etc, etc… turns out that was all horse manure, a complete pack of lies.
Who knew eh?
A complete shambles. You’d think the country was being run by the management team at Faulty Towers, only the jokes aren’t funny and it’s not over in half an hour.

I’m sorry but, what reality are you living in?
There is the law. The legal framework under which all operate. That’s it.
Now there is the legal framework that our (UK HMG) signed up to, agreed to, and has passed into *UK LAW*. That is it.
Not what the Brexit people voted for, well, there’s a shock…. NOT!! The Brexit most voted for or thought they were, doesn’t exist, it never did. A complete fantasy.
This is the real-world application of what people (apparently) voted for and has been actioned by the government that was duly elected in our democratic process within the UK by UK citizens.
Relaxing the legislative or practical application is a discretion, not a right, or most certainly not an ongoing arrangement that can be relied upon. What the UK signed up to is, what the UK signed up to and how others implement that be it “by the book” or with latitude is up to them, that is not within the remit of the UK or UK government if you will.
To say that others have been applying the law from day one yet we’re not says more about us than anyone else, we expect to be excepted from agreed *INTERNATIONAL LAW* but only when it suits us either does or doesn’t as we see fit… yeah, right. A completely ludicrous position to try to defend, utterly untenable.
And if the UK did that (as they kinda allude they might) that’s okay, we can just dispense with the law when it doesn’t suit? And, that’s okay? I think not.
But if any EU supplier/state broke the same laws, that’s big-time bad, right?
Okay for us to break the law, no okay for anyone else?
I’m somewhat perplexed by that and, to be honest, aghast.
So EU suppliers applying the *LAW* implemented by *UK HMG* from day one, as we in the UK apparently wanted is precisely what they should do, after all, that’s what we asked them to do both by the democratic process and by a legally binding international treaty or several.
Leaving me only with, suck it up… that’s what we what we wanted. That’s what we got.

Some things may be okay, depends I suspect on circumstance. For us the margins are too low to be bothered with the paperwork, what took a couple of minutes now take damn near half an hour, it’s just not worth the hassle.
But, your Italian supplier may not have discovered the problems yet and/or you may get stung with a VAT/tax charge, need to see when you get it or it gets into the UK.
But there is undeniably severe disruption already and we’re only a week into it.
As to M&S having it sorted, that’s an unreasonable statement IMO as HMG didn’t publish the “details”, such as they are until the very last minute, there was no time allowed to prepare at all. Not time to adapt systems, admin and so on and it’s all so desperately unclear it’s unreal.
Everyone and their dog was trying to find out what was to happen and despite all the utter crap “Get Ready” adverts everywhere, they couldn’t tell you what to get ready for!!!
They had no rules, no details, no plan. Nothing, nada.
Even now it’s so unclear and why, not just M&S (just one high profile example), legions of retailers and delivery services have been forced to halt deliveries outside the UK by UK Law, nothing to do with anyone else, nobody else to blame for it, this is all on UK HMG.
