    Not at all Goose, thanks for the contact 😀

    I expect the dispenser operating lever will need very slight adjustment and the Hoover engineer will sort it for you no doubt 🙂

    Just out of curiosity though, could I ask you let me have the ‘Product Code Number’ it’s 8 digits long usually begins with 3???????

    Re: Creda Condenser T622CW – No heat

    Fuzzy,

    First of all, are you getting a live feed to the thermostats? If you are then they are the likely fault and in 99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of cases they are the usual culprit 😉

    If you are NOT getting a live supply to the thermostats, then the Timer or the front exhaust thermostat are at fault 😥

    In any event I would advise caution when dealing with live electrics :zap: and unless you are a qualified electrician would advise calling in a local expert to be safe :tup:

    Graeme,

    Most likely the heater has failed at best, at worst its the heater relay gone on the circuit board….. Possibly even BOTH 😥

    Milo,

    Yes it will be the front drum support and drum bearers that have worn away. The part you found looking like a belt is in fact the felt seal. It is likely your machine will need a replaced Drum Front Air Duct assembly that incorporates the relevant parts as a unit.

    Could be a costly repair though, to be sure, give me the first 2 digits of your machines serial number?

    Re: Spring Clean?

    DJ,

    Well Finish cleaner is a fine product indeed, so I would recommend its use. In the trade there are various branded products formulated for use in dishwashers for descaling, degreasing and deodourising.

    One product that you may find useful would be Opal Dishwasher Cleaner (Product No OPL01) and available if you email: spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk

    (Copy & Paste this posting to it of course 😉 )

    Rob,

    Well the manual states “Pressurestat Failure” for F09 error code so I guess it must be that :con:

    Re: hotpoint aquarius door won’t open

    There are several versions of the Aquarius range and have differing door locks 😕

    Try lowering the drain hose into a bowl or bucket to drain every last drop of water out, then try the door again. 😉 If it has a release device on the door and it is loose to operate…then you’ve broken it and you need an engineer in to sort it. If it has a push button on the front fascia and it doesn’t engage, then either that too has broken or the machine still has water in it, drain it first then try again 😀

    Failing all that please give us the model number for further help :tup:

    Andy does spout some daft things from time to time as you know but to be fair keeps his cards close to his chest for the most part. I would imagine he will never let on to his colleagues at comet about that fact. After all its best for him that he doesn’t anway :rotl:

    That’s really not its full model number but enough info anyway in this case 🙂
    OK then it’s likely that you’re not getting enough water in the machine to start with. It almost certainly means that the water level control system is blocked. A job where an engineer is called for here 😉

    Check our repairs@ for one in your area that can contact you to sort it with little difficulty I’m sure 😀

    Have you not checked the air chamber for blockages?

    clivejameson wrote:Why not start a topic in tech enquiries titled something like ‘Manufacturer Cross Reference’ ?

    I don’t wish to dampen your enthusiasm unnecessarily over this laudable idea but it is an almost impossible task owing to the vast data input that would be required for it to succeed 🙁

    The good news is that we (in the trade) have access to ‘cross referencing’ spares data available direct from the likes of Qualtex, Invicta, Maddocks, Masterpart etc etc.( and I do NOT refer to ‘pattern spares’) They strive all the while to impart that information to us using their extensive dedicated databases. It therefore is up to the individual to be aware of the options available to be certain to save money and secure the job at the right price using this method.

    What does concern me though is the practices of certain wholesalers of genuine spare parts very often realise the cross referencing of spares. And when one orders for example a W???????? genuine part, they send a B???? part (identical) that is cheaper for them to buy BUT they then charge it to you at the W???????? price 🙁

    I will say no more on that score for obvious reasons, but my advice is to shop around 8)

    Re: Indesit W133 Washer – Aaaaaargh

    You can get the parts cheap enough direct from Indesit (do make sure you give them the serial number as there are a couple of variants) :tup:

    It is a hell of a job though, I have done several and trust me it is a so ‘n so to do and very easy to damage the s/steel drum as well 😥

    GOOD LUCK 😯

    Re: Indesit WG1234T Setting Not Working

    Matt,

    As far as I can recall the WG1234T has a seperate Thermostat alongside the Timer Control :con: If that is the case and if you set your machine to do a 90 degree wash and it works fine, then a 40 degree wash should do likewise.

    Therefore based on that theory the fault is likely associated with the Timer Control sticking between 3 & 4 and not the heater or thermostat.
