Re: Indesit dial turning….
Have a dekko at the thread entitled “Merloni error codes”.
I’ve just bumped it to the top for you.
Mike.Re: Merloni error codes
I’m just bumping this so that Martin can have a read, ’cause it sounds like it might help him at this time. 😆
I’m nearly sure the motor triac will be the big one with a heatsink.
Mike.Re: Thin Hose Clips
I got an e-mail from RS today of the spam variety almost. Promoting their latest offers of 10{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} (wow!) off etc. However among the offers I noticed a cable tie tensioner for fifty five quid 😯 . Intrigued, I went off to their site to browse. Somehow i came across “stainless steel cable ties”. You have to buy 100 at a time at £65 to £95 ++ but they’re certainly good quality and range from 4.6mm width (although the saddle measures 6.3mm). You can also buy a tool to pull them tight and cut the ends off for just £375 but I would imagine pliers could achieve a similar effect.
Has anyone here any experience of these things?

Mike.Re: Free Estimate.
If you live in a big urban area and don’t have to travel far to pull in your day’s quota, no call out is a possibility. It’s different when you have to spend time and money travelling.

Connect describes 1108590900 as “bellow without hole”. Both pics look same.
Mike.Re: aeg dishwasher keeps washing
Maybe there’s a burnt relay terminal on the board causing intermittent heater operation?
Mike.Re: Indy WE16S mark3 board. Which is heater relay?
Have board at home. But thanks for the idea, something I hadn’t thought of.

Got all this off Mediator at Connect.

😀 S’probably fixed. I reckon this is how homeopathy and crystal healing work.

I see they’ve got a little Antex thing which works off 3 AA’s. maplin
Looks a bit cheap quality from the pic but if it wil do even 10 joints on a charge that would be OK.

Andy,
Farnell order code 129-5340. Description ACS108-6SN-TR:switch AC 0.8A.
(Original was AC108-5SN).
Mac,
I’m sure Tony isn’t worried. He’ll always be one step ahead. We’ve got to be out repairing washers all day, so no time to catch up. 🙂
Mike.Re: Hotpoint WMTL79
Update. Decided against investing in a full bearing kit and went out to take machine apart and see what’s in it. Was easy job to get old bearing and seal out and I found the seal to consist of a “v-ring” running against a stainless washer. Only the v-ring itself seemed to require replacement so I googled and came up with a place called “Simply Bearings”. Had a browse through their site and made a telephone call at 5.30pm yesterday (Friday) to check a bit of technical detail. A very helpful chap answered right away and I went back to the site and ordered one using paypal. E-mail came back a few minutes later confirming it had been posted. Arrived this morning. Postage was just £1.50!
What a fantastic service! So a wholehearted recommendation to this firm,

Got the replacement AC switch eventually after Easter getting in the way and bit of a cook up by UPS trying to find me.
Also replaced a nearby relay which seemed a bit sluggish on test.
Managed to re-install the board this morning and left it running on a wash. Re-setting etc doesn’t appear to have been necessary. Anyway that’s two hours ago and not heard anything so keeping fingers crossed.
I find getting the board in and out of these WD’s a PITA. Does anybody have any tips to make that easier?
Thanks for the technical back up and moral support guys.
Mike.Re: Quality Tamperproof Torx/Security Torx bit sets
That’s set me wondering about my little gas powered soldering iron. Actually, I don’t use it when out because it runs out of gas so quick it doesn’t give you time to do much. Came from Halfords, bit of a rip-off I think but I had some vouchers given to me and they were burning a hole in my pocket. Which is probably about all this gas powered soldering iron is capable of.
Mike.Re: Quality Tamperproof Torx/Security Torx bit sets
Sounds like a brilliant idea. I think my public liability insurance has a clause in excluding blowlamp use so it may be wise to check that and take extra care if you’re not covered. Or upgrade the insurance.
I once had trouble getting an old flask open to replace the inside vacuum bit. After much grunting, I finally got it to move by applying hot and cold water alternately. Just a thought.
Mike.
