    Re: Indesit IS70C Condenser Dryer very noisy

    Debbie,

    It certainly should not be noisy, if it is it should be turned off immediately! It probably has got something caught inside I would imagine.

    Re: Time Knob on Zanussi TC460 Tumble Dryer

    Yes William, the Inner Bush is the part with the tab on it. Now the outer knob (the one you turn) has a visible slot in it and you will see the tab within that slot. Press the tab and turn the knob to release that tab…OK?

    The first thing the machine should do (on any prog setting) is pump, does it I wonder?

    Re: ariston awd12 tumble dryer

    Sorry Paul, I missunderstood your post 😕 So your problem is that you set it to Tumble Dry and the clothes get wetter then eh? Soaking wet, would mean a pump/drain out problem, warm and damp would indicate a condenser system failure (inlet nozzle or blocked condenser).

    Hope that helps, I would suggest getting in expert help if any of the above applies. Check our repairs@

    William,

    Simply depress the small tap on the inner knob slightly, at the same time twist the outer knob anticlockwise a few degrees and it should then come away!

    Re: Hoover TV630 Tumble Dryer – Blown thermal fuse

    Yes it is a ‘Microtemp Fuseable Link’ rated at 216 degs C. It usually blows as a result of turning the machine off prematurely without allowing the cycle to complete the much needed 10 minute ‘cool down’ final stage.

    Re: Where’s kwatt

    OK, so he’s in LA shacked up near Universal going on to Vegas…fine. Takes time out from his busy holiday schedule to log onto UKW…also fine. So how come his name is logged on UKW all bloody day long???

    Considering there’s an -8 hour time difference, what he playing about at over there?

    Unless?….Ah?…. it’s just dawned on me in a flash… somebody over here has hacked his password and is playing silly buggers with their new found controlling powers…Bloody Hell ❗

    Paul,

    Not sure where you look on the web but I established my postcodes by looking at my Ordnance Survey Street Atlas and A to Z Street Atlas books as they are shown in the front covers 😉

    Re: Any opinions on NEFF?

    Ditto my colleagues thoughts on Neff also.

    I should add however, I think some caution may be warranted on those fitted kitchen companies that supply “Free Neff Appliances”. As they represent the ‘bottom end’ of the market and often are actually ‘rebadged’ machines made by ‘other’ manufacturers. 😉

    Re: cheap-ish dryer

    Cheap is cheap, no way of avoiding that. So, if you want a cheap dryer to work for any length of time beyond the statutory guarantee period the choice is endless. The High Street stores are full of them, take your pick!

    Cheap -ish? Hotpoint or Creda may well fit the bill. fairly reliable, efficient and likely to give many years good service!

    Decent, one that will last for donkeys years, then , Bosch, Siemens or Miele.

    Condenser dryers have 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} more electro-mechanical content within, but usually they are not 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} more expensive than conventional vented dryers. Can be used almost anywhere, need more user attention to operate, but overall are 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} better for it.

    Ya pays ya money and all that 😀

    Jimfry,

    Not sure what a Gem 800 is to be honest 😕 the Model number is what we really need (usually begins M????) 🙂

    However, it could be the out of balance sensing part of the circuit playing up. The model number is the first thing we need though

    Re: Dishwasher cutting out

    mrsmr2 wrote:OK, since pulling out the isolator fuse and pushing it back in, all has worked fine.

    Another thought to consider……..If your machine has a seperate fuseable isolation switch, it may then mean that the dishwasher also plugs into a seperate 13amp wall socket directly behind the machine. Usually in those instances the plugtop over the years sticks to the tacky insulation material on the back of the dishwasher. Therefore whenever the dishwasher door is opened and closed the vibration pulls the 13amp plug out of the socket slightly and it switches off all by itself!!!!

    Just a thought 😉
