    At last I seem to be making contact.

    OK..Yurtesen, do please send me a pm (thats a ‘Private message’ by the way…the button just below my post) Give me your full name, address and telephone number in Finland THEN! I will get my contact ‘Marku’ in Finland to contact YOU about this…OK so far??

    No conditions are attached (except that when you get your new machine you will at least tell the sceptics here on UK Whitegoods of what I did for you 😀 )

    Yours most sincerely

    Mike,

    You have got a right tricky job there and no mistake. Impossible for an inexperienced person to do in all honesty!!!

    Unless of course you have 3 hands, can I suggest you contact a local engineer to fit it for you. Check to see if we have one in your area here :-

    Re: Bosch Dishwasher not draining

    Steve,

    Try this for me……Disconnect the grey drain hose, stick the end of that hose into the sink OR a 2 gallon bucket, whichever. Then (with care now) pour say a gallon of water manually directly into the tub, shut the door and start the machine off!

    Easily with 30 seconds ALL that water should have pumped out of the drain hose and into the sink or bucket?

    Let me know the result 😀

    I thought I had read it 😀 …No problem, nice story anyway, thanks!

    Compilation of these stories is very likely in due course but very costly to publish, so I still need still greater input from yourselves to even consider it. Sadly the idea of me asking folks to pm these tales fell on deaf ears (or should that be blind eyes?) as rather naively on my part, there was little interest overall.

    In order for it to be a million seller (with TV spin offs) like Simon Mayoh’s “Confessions” series, the stories need to be (how can I put it?) a little more risque’ like “Confessions of a Window Cleaner” type stuff, if you get my meaning? Otherwise it will only appeal to a limited ‘trade only’ element and not worth twopence. (boring washing machine guff)

    Only one person (Penguin45 in fact) took the trouble and I was suitably encouraged by this, but no-one else did in the end, so…there you go, what can I say 🙄

    However, if anyone has read this post so far and NOT fallen asleep, do please send in your CONFESSION. If it’s a ‘dodgy tale’ (we live in hope?) then do please ‘pm’ that. If, by the end of it the signs are good for potential publication, such a project will carry all the official copywrite legalities and ALL contributors will be suitably covered against liability. AND those wishing anonimity will be assured of such.

    So…over to you guys….do tell? 😀

    Re: Hotpoint WD640 Error F-04

    Held you to ransom on this one perhaps. Just delivered, first wash???…Blimey!

    Replacement machine time as the ‘error’ is somewhat indicative of a programme module/heater error, not a good sign. I expect when the engineer arrives (whenever) he will not have the part on board to fix it anyway….more delay :con:

    Yurtesen doesn’t give up does he? The brass ring kwatt refers to is the damaged drum shaft collar that I refer to. It may be either brass, or stainless steel or whatever, but its had it however you want to word it.

    Sorry Yurtesen 😥

    Re: Amusing Anecdotes & Other Tales

    Went to a charming town centre ‘2 up 2 down’ today. You know the sort I mean, door had been smashed in by Police raids a while back and just patched up enough that it still closes at night. You struggle your way down the passageway to the kitchen meeting 30 or so people of various ages and ethnic backgrounds.

    Anyway, the good news was that in spite of certain ‘difficulties’ I managed to fix the washing machine (coin in pump) but in doing so couldn’t help noticing THE OVEN (next to it!!!!)

    It was a Belling slot-in double oven, both doors were missing from it. The top one had something unspeakable hanging from the grill-pan but the best bit was the bottom oven! Now, sadly I was itching to get my phone out and take a picture but somewhat intimidated with the number of people crammed into this 6 by 4 space (watching my every move) decided against it 😀

    The bottom oven (not having its original door – remember) had instead a sheet of 16 gauge galvanised metal cut to size with 2 gate slide bolts rivetted on, that slid into holes drilled in the outer trim to hold it fast whilst ‘cooking’ took place. 🙄

    Needless to say, I didn’t stay for dinner :rotl:
