    Hi Mike
    I got diag. for a WM71 which is virtualy the same except it hasn’t the wiring for the dryer side. This dryer is connected to the side of the module and is easy to work out what is what. :rolls:

    Have done πŸ˜‰ , really need to know why it’s there

    I am not really a fan of covering things to stop water/condensation getting into things although sometimes you have no option :rolls: , I would rather sort out the origin of the problem

    Re: Computer nerd required

    Just thought I would give an update and a word of warning about MESH πŸ‘Ώ

    As previously mentioned my nice new Mesh started to hang on a regular basis along with one of the cd drives going berserk.
    Several contacts with Mesh technical resulted in me breaking the security seal and opening up the PC and sorting out the problem with the cd drive, loose data plug πŸ˜₯

    This still did not sort the “hanging” and eventually I bit the bullet and decided to telephone Mesh Tech. (previous contacts were via email) due to their high charge phone number. Getting through to them takes an average of 15 mins. πŸ‘Ώ
    I was advised to use the “recovery” disk to repair Windows. This resulted in a complete lock out of the windows system never to be seen again.
    More phone calls to Mesh tech. and was advised it must be a software problem and was given another phone number, which I rang. I was greeted with an far eastern accent who’s first comments were “this line is costing you a pound a min. do you want to carry on with the call?”
    Β£15 later the guy advised me that it was a hardware problem and that I should contact the tech. dept again. πŸ˜₯
    On doing so they advised that they would collect the PC and repair it back at base, so much for the on-site maintenance.

    PC came back two weeks later after I was advised that it would be returned within seven days πŸ‘Ώ total out of commission time, just under a month, (it was a good job that I still have the old PC.)
    It had been fitted with a new hard disk and main board, which I can only presume was faulty from new! I did notice when I took the side of the PC that the hard drive had paint damage around one of the unused fixing holes 😯
    The PC now seems to be working better than it ever did although I had to re-plug the cd drive in again.

    All in all I feel ripped off, Mesh seem to be a marketing company who happen to make computers. I believe that I was supplied with a PC with either used/faulty or re-furbished components.

    It has cost me and my business a small fortune to get resolved, their after sales seems geared around how much they can make out of the punters when their PC’s fail, not customer satisfaction.

    In my true grumpiness I will be contacting MESH’s MD 😈

    My advice, STAY CLEAR OF MESH

    Re: How to Change Belt on Hotpoint VTD00?

    Hi Richard

    Are you sure you wan’t to do this :rolls: The usual way is over front of the drum, BUT the big problem is getting the belt fitted over the motor spindle, we use a special tool (Β£50 ish) oh and you may need plenty of band aids πŸ˜‰

    Steady on Geoff, what sort of personel service you been getting? πŸ˜†

    I no longer order things in 25/50s (Hotpoint brushes/fillhoses/plaset pumps etc) and just add one or two to an order to make up the minimum value when I need to, works for me πŸ˜‰

    Re: What are the best quality bearings and where do you buy

    Had a word with Bearing Services ltd. once when I need a specific bearing, advised me that they had several manufacturers suppling the same bearing prices ranged from a couple of quid to Β£60 odd only difference was the quality and place of manufacture πŸ˜•

    I also priced one for my lathe, £630!!!!!! 😯
