    grrrr and e e e eee is a sure sign they have a faulty sprinkleractor sprocket in the valve box at fault, and you can fix it with a 19mm adjustable ring spanner. :joker:

    Re: Bosch Exxcel WAE24465GB

    Leaking on spin is almost certainly due to a hole appearing in the grey rubber door seal and that seal will need changing. As for the pump filter jammed, yes you will need to remove the pump from underneath and take it apart to clear the blockage within. If you try forcing the filter you will break it for sure.

    I would advise calling your guy out again to fix BOTH problems. 😀

    I’m sure someone will but hey you’ve realise that decent durable meters cost £100’s. There is good reason for this that doesn’t need too much figuring.

    For your workshop you’ll need something decent anyway. And, don’t forget, one that can be regularly re-calibrated every year or so.

    Keep an eye on eBay. Some great Fluke, Martindale and Robin insulation testers on there.

    PCB’s are pretty solid on this model though it cannot be ruled out entirely. The most likely is a break in the wiring, especially the motor plug connections. Worth a close look.

    That is an interesting take Lawrence, “courtesy” hmm? Yes I am with you there. But my question is asking more toward the legal aspect of invoicing. HMRC insist all VAT invoices be itemised but how does it stand up in court if a VAT registered company just lists a total unitemised price plus the 20{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} VAT element?

    Re: Who shot the hamster

    With the new format being introduced can posts be listed last first? As using via a mobile device you have to wade through pages before finding the latest post of each topic.

    Oh and the little icons are somewhat confusing for old gits like me. How Jim manages I have no idea.:wink:

    The guru eh? Ken has branded me the ‘Appliance Master’ after I complained that guru status was far beyond my abilities. I would much prefer your ‘status listing’ TBH (Valued contributor)…. But I would have to go some to get there I would imagine….hey ho!
