    Re: Bosch wm can’t reset

    You’re gonna have to get it out. Probably an inlet issue or, more likely, a drain issue. Kinked drain hose?

    No I didn’t go as I realised our chances were slim. Reading were cr&p 80{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of the time. Ali’s goalkeeping howler said it all TBH. When they started to tackle instead of idol worshipping they showed good form. Moments of brilliance by Evans, Williams and Swift. It was all too much to hope for. ManU’s academy players could have been on the park and still won. I hope our boys learnt a valuable lesson from all this. I’ll be back to the Madjeski Thursday night to see if they have.

    Well done MUFC I wish you well.

    Count those flashes between the slight pause for the error code.

    A slight earth leakage of the heating element will create the symptoms you describe. If both brushes are fine then test the heater.

    The brushes are to be found in the motor. E43 is telling you they need replacing so it’s out with the motor to do it.

    Have you checked the float and its switch?

    Re: Hotpoint WMA35 – Killing motors

    Nothing to do with the drum being stiff affecting the torque strain on the motor then?

    Nor any other make you care to think of. Fluff build-up on E/lux, Bosch, Hoover, Beko, Whirlpool etc little more than superficial and never a safety issue. The Creda based ‘tin box held together by the lid and 4 screws’ design has always been a lint sucker. Garn’s excellent photos illustrate it nicely (tin bucket full of fluff – brilliant!)

    I would have loved to have seen the airheads in the R & D department eventually thinking up where exactly they should put the pop rivet. A master stroke :rolls:

    Oh come on, it’s a fact. The evidence of which is all over the Internet including great statings by all and sundry on this site. Included in which are lots of photographic evidence (see below). I would go further, the machines in question have a whole series of weaknesses prone to early failure. None of which are a safety issue I hasten to add.

    The safety issue is by them using an open wire heating element. That alone is the problem and their pathetic modification to try and offset fluff build-up with a pop rivet for Christ sake is simply inadequate in the extreme. #knobheadlogic#floggingadeadhorse 😀

    Re: Whirlpool to do a recall on Hotpoint dryers

    How many more times are we to go over this issue? They have a fundamental design flaw that enables great swathes of lint to secrete from the drum and, thanks to the fan, deposit this around the heater box. The lint filter plays its part in capturing some but by no means all.

    As whitevanman has observed the drum ring sealing is ineffective at preventing lint from escaping and hence missing the lint filter altogether. The ‘rivet mod’ is a total joke and as Ken constantly refers to the motor car, it’s like windscreen wipers set on low speed in a tropical downpour.:wink:

    Could well be a welded drum only fit for scrap, what model number is it?

    Re: Dishwasher salt how many washes

    In general a full sized model with a full salt reservior set on the hardest setting you should expect the salt light to come back on after 20 or so washes. A 45cm model would show an average of 15 or 17 washes.

    I’m not sure what connections you refer to? No sealing material required. Here’s how to remove though go easy with the screwdriver as no force required.
