Thanks Dave 🙂

I changed the one that came up in searches according to its value – it screwed into the chassis – it did throw me when I saw one on the motor but thought that was the run capacitor. I did d take a photo but it is too big to upload. So looked like I will have to order the other one.

question – could I use the one I took off as an interim as my wife doesn’t want a tumble dryer in the kitchen in bits

Re: Panasonic NA-168VX3 error code H57

Hi and thanks for your response – I did see it earlier today but couldn’t reply. The bad news is that I mustn’t have registered the extende warranty however hats off to Panosonic as they are going to register the warranty and I have emailed them our receipt this evening so result. If I find out what the problem is (i.e. I am here when the engineer comes) I will post up here so it may help somebody else in the future.

I had seen what the prices were for a motor and a PCB and would have scrapped it (a £450 machine that would cost as much to fix if you include labour and no doubt call out fees!!)

Cheers

Re: Samsung SR-S2028 Not maintaining correct temperature

right, I have removed the covers at the back of the fridge (eventually). I decided to do this when I saw the air flow spouts and that covered in ice. It was totally ice bound behind the panel.

I have read that there is a heater etc… for these type of frost free – but nothing jumps out when looking behind there. Has anybody got any pointers on what they look like and where to test (wire colours etc) on this model?

They delivered our replacement early (Saturday), however, this (FZ150) has all the seals deformed and it barely closes the door 🙁 or holds it closed. The supplier has offered us a Beko as a replacement as they have no more FZ’s in stock which I did look at but thought the drawers were exceedingly flimsy so if I can get this fixed quickly I will just get a refund and get them to collect this.

Cheers guys

Re: Samsung SR-S2028 Not maintaining correct temperature

Hi,

I hope that someone can help me. We have a 2028 where the freezer is not going below 9C. I have pressed the buttons as mentioned above, and the bottom horizontal element of the freezer side temperature stays lit.

We have ordered another freezer, but if I can get an answer fast we may be able to cancel the order.

Many Thanks for any responses

Re: SMEG DUC08CSS – No heat or fan etc on Main Oven

Hi Guys,

refreshing this thread. The oven eventually got fixed 2 days before Christmas – if the part hadn’t arrived by then we would have been without an oven over Christmas and New Year!

Well arrived home last night to the Wife saying the oven has gone again – exactly the same symptoms so I feel I have to agree with helo_75 above.

Really hacked off by this and also the Vendors complete disregard for consumer rights.

Right off SMEG now namely for reliability and part availability and want a replacement (different brand) or a refund

Anyway – just an update

Cheers

Re: SMEG DUC08CSS – No heat or fan etc on Main Oven

as an update, the Smeg service center (who was told by the retailer no heat and a distorted display!!) has contacted SMEG with the symptom of the flashing number 6 and has come back to say they can not guarantee to get the part (Clock/Control unit) by Christmas so the service center is trying to arrange a swap out with with a new one – they have them in stock.

Also, the retailer is looking at a possible solution but have not come back to me.

A question I have though is if I get offered a refund by the retailer, should I stick with SMEG or move to another brand?? If so, which would you recommend??

Many thanks

Steve

read the bit in the handbook, about setting the clock

hi, we have reset it – powered off and set the time again with no joy (holding down the center button for a couple of seconds and then setting the time.

it is actually flashing the number 6 twice every ten seconds.

hope this helps further

Cheers
