Re: Hotpoint WMA61P drum paddle which one do i need?
Had a call to replace drum paddles on a WMA the other day. I ask her for the model and serial so i’d know which paddles to bring. She lives 15 miles away. So i get there and the paddles don’t fit and i had the correct numbers etc so i couldn’t understand why they didnt fit ❓
I then found out the drum was replaced under warranty so the hotpoint engineer fitted the newer type drum that uses version 2 lifters 😕
Always a good idea to ask if the machine has had a drum job before you go to the house.
Re: Bosch D/W SGS43E08GB (S9G1B) strip down
It seems the newer ones have a removable bottom cover now. I have come across 2 of the newer machines where the seal where the motor fits into the housing fail. The machines were nearly new too.

The inner drum will have to come out first.
Remove the adgitater to expose the mount stem and nut.
To remove the mount stem and tub nut (l/h thread) you will find almost impossible if you dont have the special spanner.
Once both tub and drum are out it should be fairly obvious
Dont forget to fit a mount stem kit as well
HTH
Yeah it’s the tub bearing that’s fecked. Thank you for that info.
Re: Zanussi dishwasher problem
I’ts not seized. I’m not getting any reading between the white and the other 2 wires, however i get a reading of 118 ohms between the orange and blue.
EDIT: Just checked a motor that i know works but has a broken shaft, the 118 is normal between the 2 wires and it reads ok with the white wire so my motor is definately fecked.

Chris.
I’d say the selector. In every machine i have gone to with this problem it always turned out to be the selector.
Re: Zannussi fjs1225w not starting
Possible door lock problem, motor brushes or dampness on the motor.
Re: Bosch Exxcel wfo285sgb/01 skips spin
I remember a similiar fault on it’s Siemens sister washing machine. The motor was faulty even though it washed ok etc. If the brushes are ok it’s the motor.

Outlet tube as Gordy says; if the machine is coupled to a sink spigot you certainly need to check that and of course there is the good old crushed/nipped/trapped drain hose to check for.
Penguin45.
I always find the outlet on the pump where the outlet hose connects gets blocked up as it’s a bit narrow. If i collected all the coins i have found lying sideways in the inlets and outlets of the pump housing i should be a millionaire by now. 😆

doesnt that have a vairable, capiliary stat?
im sure is does
no ntc on that me thinks
It’s a while back now and has worked ever since, to be honest i thought it just had knob for the spin speed but could be wrong. I think it was a quattro as i remember blue writing alright.

Don’t think so as i watched the machine and it always completely emptied the drum.You mean you actually sat there through the complete cycle with it filling with HOT on rinses and the pump never cut out? 😕
No I mean I watched it emptying at the final spin and it pumped all the water out and still skipped the final fast spin. All the water emptied no problem. No the hoses weren’t kinked I even saw it doing it when pulled out.

Don’t think so as i watched the machine and it always completely emptied the drum.
Re: Beko Washer WM1010
Might be some sort of blockage like a childs sock in the pipes or a coin lying flat at the inlet of the pump.
Re: Hotpoint TL52 tumble dryer.
Do you guys replace the bronze bearing at the back when you change the machines with the stretch belts? Most i call to have wear on them and when they wear through a groove starts to wear into the shaft and it snaps 8)
Re: Zannusi start button
I would check all plugs, also check motor brushes and check the motor for condensation. Fault could be just a coincidence. Door locks can give problems. Make sure you didn’t dislodge plug on interlock when you had your hands in there.
