Re: Live testing

It’s not as if you’re going to put all the lid and panels back on every time you want to find out if a change you’ve made has had any effect. :rolls: But that’s surely what you’d have to do if H&S had their way.

Re: bosch wvt12842gb/06

Not seen one of these but wouldn’t poking a bit of strimmer line down the tube with a repeated back and forth motion clear it well enough? Followed by a couple of service washes to make sure.

Re: ZANUSSI DISHWASHER DE540X PCB FIRES

I just thought it would be good to have a list of such “odd mods”, especially safety critical ones, somewhere here we could all consult them, such as a sticky in TTE’s

Re: ZANUSSI DISHWASHER DE540X PCB FIRES

Is there a sticky somewhere where crucial safety notices like this one are held? If not, it would be handy to have one. Who, in this multi-brand world, has got time to keep up with these warnings? First time I had seen that one.

Only time I used WD40 for that purpose, on a Hpt WM series, it worked for one or two washes and then reverted to low insulation. Is there a way to do it reliably, as it would save a lot of work dismantling motor to clean properly?

Are there any trays or dishes obstructing vents in the fan cover?

Re: bosch wvt12842gb/06

Did it move at all with the load in?
Your test seems to suggest that the motor isn’t providing enough torque but that would be a rather unusual fault. Much more likely to be just an intermittent no motor action (tug around motor plug area, try pulling p/sw tube off) if it is a not moving at all fault.

Yeah but they then take their credit card payment first then say…”due to unexpected high demand this part is temporarily out of stock…..” :rolls:
IME, they take your card details but don’t take payment till it’s ready to dispatch (even if that’s months). You can then cancel when you’re fed up waiting.

Re: Bosch SRS45E38GB/01 Dishwasher

Tank off. Instructions are available here somewhere in one of Martin’s best efforts. (Suggest search for Bosch + heater + dishwasher and specify author Martin, tick display results as posts.) Should be just a sealing kit unless shaft / bearing have got damaged. Watch out it’s not a leaking hose from mtr to htr which is only available as complete htr …. probably.

Re: tricity bendix aw1201 not taking water

Usual checks first. Condensation on brush holders or low insulation somewhere. Tech stuff should be available from Connect mediator.

Re: Hotpoint 9536 s/n 83183406 Suspension given up.

First place I check is IDC connection to tacho at motor end. Especially if it’s lost the cable tie which should hold it all firmly in place.
