    Not available in seperate parts (except the brushes). Has to be a costly complete motor otherwise. 🙁

    The motor is knackered then (technical trade terminology) 🙁

    Using a Megger would never damage a motor. Usually the commutator is the problem so isolate and check that first (com segments to ground). Likewise the stator using the same method. Any reading less than 50 megohms will trip the RCD/MCB.

    Yes, dismantle and thoroughly clean the motor and replace the carbons.

    Maybe the thinking here was being as the terminals above are uninsulated it matters little if the mains cable is too?

    You said previously that the airflow was clear so I take it the vent arrangement outside is in order too right?

    Re: Hotpoint 7844 dishwasher timer problem?

    It’s a mechanical linkage between timer and dispenser so a little ‘lubrication’ may be the only solution? Or, maybe the dispenser latch can be replaced if it is seized. (The latch kit is still available – I think?)

    Looks more like a painting by Turner as it’s so fuzzy and out of focus. The artist who painted it left if for the observer to try to imagine what it was they are supposed to see? I’d love to see your holiday photos.

    Re: door seal hoover vt816d22

    Removing a door seal is NOT recommended. The staining will be difficult or worse still impossible to remove in any case. However if you insist, power disconnected first, remove lid and access to the clamp band holding it to the tub from there. The front clamp band holding to the front panel simply unclips.

    Not at all sure about the motor advice from BSH, that’s an odd one, costly too if it isn’t that. The NTC is a good shout though.

    The vent? How is it vented? Not a long exhaust outlet I trust?

    Re: Candy cdb 264 – thermostat keeps clicking off when on dr

    Hello bump:D

    Trip circuit breaker means an earth leak so probably the heating element/s need checking (with a Megger preferably).

    Beko are no strangers to lighting fires and I’m sure a fault like this qualifies a recall.

    Perhaps that’s why you chose to post this in General rather than Technical anyway?

    Re: Bosch wtb76556gb/05 e01 error code

    Is the machine located in a confined space? These machines need lots of airflow and that usually means being located in a large room or opened door or window close by. If you switch it off then immediately back on, what happens?
