Re: Hotpoint WF541 Rear Serial Port
Aww, I want to now. Seems like a taboo area that you just have to probe.
Unless you did it and wrecked it , mmm.
I only ask, because I did the same on my ODB2 connector on my car and learnt a lot from it.
Cheers

Re: Is Beko drum same as Hotpoint.?
Well, I got it fixed.
Re-bent all metalwork, fixed the crack in the circuit board, re-placed the selector switch with a new one, mended all plastic parts that had broken using epoxy resin.
Also replaced a surface mount LED that had fallen off.
Plugged it in, stood back, closed my eyes, turned it on. Checked the chassis to see if it was live ( wasn’t ). All powered up, controls worked OK. filled it with water, no leaks, emptied it, delivered it to my fiancee.
Sweet, I am not a Washing Machine Engineer but made a good job of this one and I am pleased.
Regards to anyone who helped.

The water inlet from the powder dispenser is also different. Looks like the same motor, heater and mountings.
It was a long shot, but there we go.
The bearings are shot in the Hotpoint, other than that it is ok. I’ll keep the bits for spares for my machine.

Re: Is Beko drum same as Hotpoint.?
HI Martin, just in the workshop now, they are different. Not by a lot. If it was not for the hotpoint being a 7kg and the beko bing 5kg they would have gone straight in.
Shame really, i’ll repair the beko. It’s a brand new one that has been dropped face down whilst still packaged.
cheers
