Re: Hotpoint TCM580 Belt not lasting
It is mostly related to poor tension on a worn belt, but i have fitted a few genuine belts, and still seems to happen…seems to be more of a timing issue with the reversing
MartinRe: Hotpoint wdd960 dryer not working.
You should alsomhave a thermal fuse fitted, easily identifiabl as it has a heatprrof tubing around it (usually yellow) test this also using continuity setting that you have at the 6 o clock setting on your meter (you should hear a beep)!
MartinRe: Hotpoint wdd960 dryer not working.
Heater should have roughly 43k ohms reading, so yours is ok
NTC should read around 26k ohms at 20c

Re: Hotpoint wdd960 dryer not working.
Also it looks like you have one meter probe touching the outer plastic?
MartinRe: Hotpoint wdd960 dryer not working.
That is a NTC (negative temperature coefficient) and you cannot test for an open circuit as such..
You need to put your meter on the ohms scale to test, and lower the end in to hot water, if the reading changes then its ok..if not you can get a new one from here

Is it just the one sensor its fitted with?
MartinRe: Hotpoint TCM580 Belt not lasting
Ive noticed on quite a few of the Hotpoint CTD & VTD types, that as it stops to gomin to reverse tumble, that the drum hasnt completely stopped turning before the motor has been switched to turn in the other direction, hence allowing motor pulley to freely spin on the belt…and this is when drum is unloaded!
MartinRe: Hotpoint wdd960 dryer not working.
Power off first!
The thermostats and elements are located under the rectangular aluminium box at the left of you picture,..make a note of where the wired are connected before removal…
If its the element that is faulty,then you will. Red to undo all the bolts/screws around the rectangular cover….

Re: Miele w1514.
Worth checking the four drum support springs are ok,as even if one is put on incorrectly the drum can catch on the door boot.

Re: First washing machine (single person)
I’d go for a Miele or ISE if you want to spend that sort of money

Looks like it may so the job,it goes inside the tube, and not over the end.
If you are worrid that it may come loose, you can always fit a small jubilee type clip around it, and should you ever need to empty any water out then its just a matter of undoing a screw..
MartinRe: whirlpool awor4205 washer
Maybe a faulty mains supressor, have had a few machines where i have had full voltage coming in, but still machine was dead, new supressor and it was ok!
Worth checking

If you have the user manual, take a look at page 25, this should explain to you where it should be routed, if you dont have it then go here to download it
