    Re: salt left on crockery

    The Softener Unit may be at fault in that case and need replacing?

    Try running a full wash cycle empty, then try again with a normal load. If you have problems still, its the Softener Unit I’m afraid 🙁

    Trade Rule number One: Model number please? :lesson:

    If its (a current model?) then to access the components in the base you need to remove the door and the tub for this. SMS series are more straightforward, SPS series are a nightmare and so on…!

    Carefully check the salt lid gasket and that it fits snugly in position. Always use salt granules and when full with salt, should last 15 to 20 washes before the salt light comes on again 🙂

    All the connectors fit with the ‘latches side’ of each connector block facing the ‘component’ side of the board 😉

    Bloody hell????….even Chris has figured it (having seemingly been so ‘anti’ in the past?) 😀

    I think (and with respect here Ken, lest you fall out of your tree again?) you appear to be building a perch on a lofty tree surveying all around in the hope they will all see your point of view? UKW is only part of the equation at the moment. If we all pull together UKW may even be the solution to that equation!

    Re: Hotpoint DF42 Ultima Micro error code 10

    It relates to a filling ‘time-out’ problem. Either the inlet filter is blocked, the valve itself faulty or the water level system is in need of attention?

    Do try
    Repairs@ if you get stuck and need a bit of professional help?

    Ditto on pup’s reply….always get that cheque guarantee number, date of expiry and value writen on the back :tup: No cheque guarantee?….no point in accepting a cheque!

    It is so easy to forget to insist on this procedure after all the sweat you put in to fix the machine and likely repocussions if something goes wrong. Pack up your tools and walk away knowing you have the money and not just a worthless piece of paper! 👿

    Brilliant idea Bob, but can you give us a clue as to what your average monthly mobile phone bill equates to using that system? I still rely on my home answerphone message advising customers to redial me on my mobile. That way I don’t pay for the high price of diversion costs as you do. But, is my system false economy I wonder?

    Let me clarify my inference here, I refer to a full flowing two-way co-operation between UKW & DASA, DASA & UKW. Rudi has got ‘That Lot & ‘The Other Lot’ spot on, mores the pity. Strength can be gained through allegience instead what we have achieved so far is 3 years of slagging each other off and an even greater barrier has been drawn up between the 2 factions as a result.

    An open invitation was posted for DASA to at least let us in on their AGM notes. And I thought and was advised by some that that was very likely to happen. Then Rudi puts his all in and stirs the whole lot up again pouring even more salt into the gaping wound!

    Honestly, outsiders (and by that I mean CDSL and the like) must regard it all with contempt and liken the whole show to little more than ‘junior school name calling at playtime!

    No, sorry to confuse, but I meant the postings are all over the place and it’s time we moderators had another ‘tidy-up’ so lets sort that out in the Moderators Forum. 🙂

    Re: The Future Of DASA

    The sooner ‘That Lot’ and ‘The Other Lot’ (as Rudi puts it) bang their heads together, the better as far as I am concerned.

    Walter Russell (no relation by the way 😉 ) seems to me to be so far removed from the real world I question why the hell he got elected anyway?

    That aside, it really is time we all got together in one room and thrashed all this out for the overall good of the trade. DASA needs UKW, UKW needs DASA, and argue or defend that statement all you like between you, the fact is, I am not wrong in saying so!

    DASA has got sod all to offer, they know it, everyone knows it! UKW has united the trade (including many DASA members) and is on the up. Has got the trade buzzing and has shown to be a force to reckon with. The trouble is (as I see it still) UKW is so fragmented….going in all friggin directions and all at the same time.

    So much talent is out there to realise the potential, yet arguments prevail and it all boils down, I reckon, into there being ‘too many chiefs and not enough injuns’. So many ‘know it all’ yet cannot conceed that the trade has a problem that needs sorting and sorting now!

    How wonderful it would therefore be if you pro-DASA guys truly acknowledged and united with UKw for the good of our trade to enable us to move on (as one). 💡

    Re: Whirlpool AWZ 541/3 Tumble Dryer Screeching Fan/Motor No

    Chazzer,

    Its a plastic fan unit that snap fits onto a metal shaft. As Dave says, in order to fit a new Fan unit, one simply has to break the old one off! Nothing too physical required in doing that in all honesty. 😉

    Thought I must admit that after reading these posts…… what the hell is an “Interference fit” anyway :con: That’s a new one on me for sure! 😕
