Re: Hoover HNC175 Condenser T/D – Jockey pulleys

Thanks for the replies guys

Did assume that it was a drum out job but…

I did try to get my hands to the pulley and belt but could only get it in as far as just my finger tips to see if there was jockey pulleys fitted but could only get one hand sort of in and it felt vertually impossible to get belt on under tension? Think Candy must be using child labour if this is the only way to get the belt on?

Did you get the belt on the drum/motor/jockey pulleys then with the front support off then? If so, do you have to fight against the tension of the belt to get the support into the bottom fixing? or does releasing the rear of the drum help this?

Did try and get the support off but there felt as if there was not enough give in the belt tension to lift the support that inch to release it from the bottom fixing. Do you have to release the belt first to get the support off?

The problem I can see is getting the front support off/on with the belt on… or getting the belt off/on with the support fitted.. ????

In the meantime ordering the tension pulleys and any other help appreciated..

Thanks

Re: Hoover D6148 T/Dry – door switch

Went back and changed switch yesterday – arrived with SWT4720 switch kit.. when I got into it after taking drum out and interlock assembly of it was just a bog standered micro switch fitted so fitted Hotpoint door interlock switch 168987.

Could have fitted switch from the kit but decided to keep on van for another day..

Thanks for the help though Steve

Re: Servis M6115 – wash problem

Sorry for late update but thought I’d post the outcome.. changed module all working ok now..

m/c didn’t have a stationary heat like I thought.. after changing module had drum action while heating. Obvious module fault if I had known that but because nothing standard anymore… well, you know the rest..

Re: H/Point WMA Heater removal

Thanks for the reply Wilf sounds like we both use a similar method although I’ve always been afraid if I push all the gromit in, it wont come out again due to it expanded out and make removal worse…

As I got no other replies I guess no one has a easy way to get these out… looks like I going to have to struggle as usual but just wondered if anyone had come up with an ingenious method yet.

What happened to the days when m/c were made to be repaired whithout to much of a struggle?

Thanks

Re: And in the beginning….

Ahhh… them were the days..

When I first started workin at the MEB we used to drive a Austin A35 van.. so little you used to shut the door on your sholder and drive with your face in the winscreen.. remember getting home most nights with a raging headache cuz the winscreen was so close and I think there was still one on the fleet that had those sticky out flag indicators!

Then we moved up to the old Bedfords with a 3 speed gearbox, colum change and side opening doors that you could secure back in the nice hot summers and drive around with no seat belt on because they wern’t fitted in those days..

Yep… them were the days when it was the rare occasion you would have to stop at a junction because there was another vehicle coming unlike today when it’s the rare occasion to get straight through a juntion becuase there isn’t one coming…

When machines were designed by engineers instead of accountants and service engineers were happy little souls..

And no.. you didn’t have a man with a flag walking in front of the vehicle either 🙂

Re: Hotpoint mains cable/filter – problems

Yes.. good tip..

They are not like the usual molded plug lead where you can disconect the lead from the capacitor/filter so next time I get one I try that first..

Thanks
