Re: zanussi zwf12070w1
Just had a customer left me a message with model, PNC and serial number. Great. Only he forgot to leave me his telephone number :rolls: .
Anyway, bearings are gone so I looked it up and it’s one of these exact same as this thread. Looking at diagram I noted it would be necessary to change over the concrete front weight. Thinking a bit too far ahead, I looked up the price of that, thinking it would probably break at some point during the job, and found it was obsolete with no alternative offered at Connect. Tried checking on Lux site but that is taking five minutes to load a page at the moment, so thought I’d rant about it here while I’m waiting. Ah here it is, been replaced by 50224306006 out of stock, which part number also comes up obsolete at Connect.
Well, it just shows what a great advantage it is to make welded drums so they fail within 3 years. No need to keep heavy parts like concrete weights in the warehouse as you can be sure they’ll probably never be needed :tdown: .
Mike.Re: Connect Prices
What it really shows is how heavily all those businesses rely on their computers. No human being reviewing those prices would have left them up there attracting bad publicity. In other words they have cut their staffing levels to the bare minimum. Thus when you see a price you don’t like at Connect, or any other supplier, it’s time to pick up the phone and tell them where they’re going wrong.

Mind you, it just shows how many other sellers base their prices on Connect’s. Open these in new tabs and read them in this order for a bit of a laugh.

Mike.Re: Connect Prices
Just a quick one and for a laugh more than anything, have a look at Connect’s current price for C0020253 Hpt mains cable. 😯
And don’t forget to add the VAT. 😆 Free delivery mind you as you’ll be well over the threshold.

Looks like that slug’s still alive and slurping up the carbon!
BTW, how do you prevent that headlamp falling off your head every time you bend forward?
Mike.Re: Zanussi D/W no heat
If it’s an older machine it’s worth replacing the relay as the contacts will probably be burnt. On newer machines (2/3 years) the solder joints are probably all that needs doing. Same with washing machine heater relays.
Mike.Re: LG WD12316RD Display goes blank
Yup. All the power boards on LG I’ve come across are embedded in that tough silicone-like stuff. Great for keeping moisture out but makes repair a near impossibility. Smells quite nice when you melt it with a soldering iron though.
Mike.Re: ZANUSSI W/M….DIAGNOSIS OR A FIX..PLEASE
Timer available from EMW but you might need number off old one. Ring Tony and give him model no. if it’s a distant job.
Mike.Re: Zan ZWF16070W1. 914521482/00 commutator exploded.
Yep. Had already thought of that. I would be warning her.
Mike.Re: Indesit Widl 126
Got to be a job for EMW. Get them to send you a board up front rather than sending yours for repair.

That warning needs writing up somewhere where everyone can see it. That is very underhand behaviour on their part. We shouldn’t have to deal with stuff like that. Our jobs are difficult enough already.
Mike.Re: LG WD12316RD Display goes blank
Have you looked at the board? I take it that’s one of those models where it’s all behind the fascia. If so, there’s a big capacitor near the mains input to the board. They fail and will probably show a visible sign of failing (bloated or popped or melted the plastic film covering.) New board might fix it if this is what you find, but I’m not going to stick my neck out that far.
Mike.Re: Hotpoint WT540 relays clicking.
Best way to deal with EMW is to get them to send you a replacement board, provided it’s in stock. Then if it doesn’t fix the problem you send it back.
Mike.Re: ZANUSSI W/M….DIAGNOSIS OR A FIX..PLEASE
Older ones with hybrid timers do this. It’s a common timer fault with them. Are you sure about the age of the machine?
Mike.Re: WAE24364gb/11
Dunno how Martin knows it’s a sticking relay but assuming he’s right, it shouldn’t be very difficult to repair the module or get EMW to look at it. You should find plenty on here under a search for “relay” or read through “Simple pcb repairs” thread for some pointers. As for how to reset the machine, now that would flummox me.
Mike.
