Re: hoover hnv380 drier
That would be something to bring to the attention of trading standards if it turns out to be the case.
08443 712758 is Hoover spares apparently. Best try them first.
If really stuck with it, can the button not be re-affixed with a short length of cable tie and superglue? At the very least a temporary repair.
Mike.Re: Tricity Bendix AW1200W 91478070700 bearing kit
Pretty certain that’ll be the standard large bearing kit 344703012, about a tenner from Connect.
Mike.Re: Electrolux ESL6115
I was wondering whether it might have something to do with the inlet valve. If it’s the anti-overflow type, the pressure operated magnet thing on top seems to get stuck in the tripped position sometimes. Never have quite understood that particular system and all its foibles. Tapping the valve will reset it but this sometimes only works as a temporary measure.
Mike.Re: Miele W864
Exploded diagrams on Connect mediator but no bearing parts stocked. If you get the old ones out you might be able to get pattern matches. Seme used to stock some Miele bearing seals. Their old catalogue lists the following sizes but without model no.’s
28 x 42/52 x 13,
30 x 53/60 x 10/13,
35 x 76 x 10/14.

Mike.Re: A penny for your thoughts?
Have had two of those ugly wall planners so far. Now today a calendar with lovely pictures of vacuum cleaners and similar things to brighten up my office :evil:.
Wish they’d stop wasting my money on postage and filling up my paper recycling bin.
Mike.Re: Whirlpool AWO3571
Don’t see many Whirlpool here but had one a while back which was similarly dead and it turned out to be open circuit heater. Have you tried a search here on the model or similar models, e.g. “AWO*”
Mike.Re: Hotpoint CT61C
According to MPT that model is a “Crusader”. Hotpoint equivalent models seem to be TDC30 /32 /60/62.
Mike.Re: Electrolux ESL6115
I seem to remember this on a similar model, built-in slimline. I think the pump ran with door open but it turned out to be normal and you just had to wait a minute or two for the programme to kick in. Can’t guarantee my memory though 🙁 .
Mike.Re: Loose Bearing Insert
Once I had the bearing housing fracture when I was hammering out the front bearing. The front 2cm or so of the housing came away as a ring. I araldited it back in place and it lasted very well. Your situation there is of course more difficult. I would have been tempted to give it a go by drilling holes around the periphery from the back and inserting bolts or long self tappers. But not if water had been coming through that way.

It seems doubtful that he would be labouring on a neighbouring farm but you never know! It’s a strange world.
Anyway, he’s no doubt heard from Lord George Herbert about how trustworthy you are!
Mike.Re: ananlogue meggar wanted
Last time I looked, a couple of years ago, there were plentiful used ones on e-bay very cheap and not necessarily clapped out.

Mike.Re: tricity bendix BIW 104W
Condensation on brush holders can cause this. Or possibly other earth leakage.
