Re: Dangerous part ll
Why PAT test a socket? Earth loop impedance yup, but a socket is not part of the Portable Appliance Test criteria.
Re: Stoves 600DWT unresponsive
It’s a common issue when internals become damp/wet, you loose neutral return which looks out the appliance and this is indicated by no response to program button being pressed. Give the appliance time to dry out, if problems still present, your heater maybe faulty, that gives same symptoms.
The salt light is just an indicator showing your out of salt. It can be ignored although running a dishwasher without salt will give poor wash results in time, don’t listen to the uneducated, soft water means nothing, it still contains lime, just in smaller quantities, using no salt is going to bring you issues.

Yet there are hundreds if not thousands all around the country in garages. I would also not recommend it, l also wouldn’t recommend driving above the speed limit.
Re: Customer warranties on repairs
It is illegal to defraud a business, sometimes simply stating it was a mistake is a bit difficult when someone is demanding money from a company they have no evidence of ever dealing with, as many judges point out ignorance is no defence in law. I’m no legal expert, but I’d be surprised if an attempt at fraud is not illegal.
Re: Dangerous part ll
Since their is no regulations requiring any testing to domestic appliances after a repair any test is pure choice of the individual. Most company instruct hard wired appliances don’t need to be tested at all. If you work on an appliance and do something dangerous and someone gets killed, in court it will make little difference whether you tested the appliance or not. Your whole background will be scrutinised, even if you tested, you’d need to have good quality equipment, records of the test, I’m afraid hand written readings on a piece of paper are not proof enough, your equipment will also need to be calibrated and it would help having the odd relevent qualification.

Any good at welding, l need 10kg of Argon before the Italian welder turns up tomorrow in the hope the catastrophic failure of a new product that sneaked through BS certification can be resolved and mod carried out at source before the brown hits the rotating plastic.

I’m a mercenary. I’ve been stuck in a hotel in the middle of nowhere near some place called Northampton for the past week, although nobody has tried to kill me yet.

Jim you absolutely right about double glazing firms. Anyone remember Rover going bust, it’s all exactly the same!
Company Law makes provision for entrepreneurs to take risk in setting up business, which I could go on and on about, but without it being the way it is most of us would not have jobs!
Martin, don’t take Lee8’s point as Sarcasm, he is entitled to do exactly as he says, carrying it out is something else completely, obviously the quality and class of client he deals with would purchase such products.
I’m not in the industry in that way. I have no clients of my own.Re: ISE Appliances cease trading-who deals with warranty cla

Re: ISE Appliances cease trading-who deals with warranty cla
I have no doubt ISE are honest and genuine, it’s just annoying that the outcome no matter what the intention or honesty of the people involved is the same as if their intentions where not. It also leaves a bad taste when it done by people wanting to clean our industry.
Re: ISE Appliances cease trading-who deals with warranty cla
So basically selling a product with a 10 yr warranty means absolutely nothing if that business packs it in, but pockets that part of the profit.
I think I’ll import a few thousand, give them a 40 yr warranty and pack it in when their sold, genius.
