    Must be the Module then Chris? though I’ve never had one go on this model :con:

    As Kevin pointed out that at no stage has Pat asked for financial help. And this bit about creating precendents and/or whether or not Pat is a subscriber is not my point. But I did give a clue to exactly where I was coming from with the ‘Masonic’ reference 😉

    Ask yourselves ‘why the hell did Pat-UK tell us his problem’???? Not that he wanted financial help or sympathy, or even to warn others of his predicament…..He wanted help and advice from us all. He is worried shitless over this, his self-esteem has been violated and no doubt he has had many sleepless nights.

    Many of us here have offered direct advice and encouragement to him, and there is clearly little else we can do. By the way, because the claimant is demanding little in compensation, a solicitor cannot be commissioned and my researching the Public Liability route as far as legal help in a case like this, they don’t want to know…its a lost cause of minor significance and no reward in their eyes and rightly so!

    But what we can do collectively above and beyond the call, is to ‘offer’ him his costs should he lose. That’s the Masonic way of dealing with things and possibly alien to the former DASA approach (oops! should’nt mention them here Martin 😳 ) that is the backbone of many members thoughts and principles.

    Band of Brothers???.. this may be a tester????

    Spot on there Vince :tup:

    Check out all the “4 in 1” tablets rubbish on TV is exactly their plan. Supply and demand has taken over ‘big time’ in this very instant. Consumers find it much easier to open a tablet sachet and place it in the dispenser than weild a huge carton of powder spilling the contents everywhere but!

    Powder and powder refills are to be found everywhere at the moment, but for how long?…dunno, not long I reckon.

    And the price of these tablets????…thru the roof they are!!!! Just reinforcing what the manufacturers, distributors and retailers already have realised…..that those that can afford to have a dishwasher, can afford the extra for detergent supply. Once the demand is established they have ‘Joe Public’ by the proverbial 😕

    No way will any other motor fit but the correct one for this make and model :lesson:

    Besides as its not very old it may well have a 5 year parts warranty on it anyway for Hotpoint to sort for you! 💡

    Yep! as the tacho is not available seperately 🙁 . It could however be a motor plug connection, loose wire to the tacho type of problem in this instant 💡

    I agree with you on this Sean as I believe everyone else here agrees, also the idea Dave originally mentioned about helping him out on this one financially. OK so he doesn’t subscribe (Yet, he friggin’ will do when I’ve done with him 😆 ) but I reckon if he looses his case we should at least offer to pitch in his losses. A few hundred quid guys?, that’s all, besides UKW will get it back from his future subs anyway…..!

    “UKW is a real community”……….lets prove this again this way for all the trade to see the benefit of UKW membership! 😀

    The customer is always right ….Bollocks!…not in this case 👿

    Re: another joke.

    OK, here’s one you can tell the vicar next Sunday…….

    ….an elderly couple where looking at the headstones around the churchyard, suddenly the old lady stopped and shouted.. “Oh look here George at the name on this gravestone!….. “TEMPUS FUGIT”

    Now that’s the bloke what made the clock we got in our front room!!!!!

    Steve,

    Yes of course the dryer stat needs a look at but usually its the lack of water flow into the drum that causes the problem 😉

    The hose fits onto a brass nipple on the drum and this could be blocked with limescale or water not flowing via the valve 💡 Therefore the complaint usually is that the clothes get really hot and steamy!

    Re: Servis WMA35P

    I cannot stand judge to your abilities, but it does require someone with electrical competence and a decent kit of tools. However it is not an expensive job for a local guy to fix for you, so I really do recommend taking that route :tup:

    To check if we have such a guy in your area click here: –

    Alternatively a new door seal can been obtained by emailing the relevant information to : spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk
