Re: how do i know if its definitly the drain pump gone
If the drain pump runs, you’ll hear it. If it runs and doesn’t empty, there’s a blockage. If it doesn’t run, there may be a foreign body in the pump stopping it, or the pump may have failed.
Short of finding a nicely carbonised lump of pink and white plastic where the drain pump ought to be, there isn’t a definitve answer.

Re: Bosch Slimline – leak from underneath?
Take the door outer panel off first and lift the front of the machine by about an inch. It’ll come off.

Re: Diplomat ADP 8352. Its not the doorswitch!
It’s a Chinese one, so anything is possible. Check that the door latch is actually disengaging in the open position – if it doesn’t, you can’t programme the machine.
PCB failure is entirely possible, in which case encourage your landlord to buy something decent rather than wasting his money trying to fix this one.

Re: The Martin Conumdrum
Well the box of Dried Frog Pills I sent him seem to be having a positive effect. 😀
He’s done some good stuff of late – maybe we shouldn’t bump this for a while?

Well done and thank you.

Re: To Save or Not to? Help!
Door seal should be THIS ONE.
Leaning the machine back gives you more room to get your fingers in; trying to remove the concrete block is an exercise in futility.

Re: Hoover EL160 Easy Logic Washer – Door Seal Replacement
You should have THIS?
The door seal is retained by a ratchet band on the front of the casing and a screw band on the tub front. Remove both to release the existing seal.
Fitting the new seal is a patience exercise – outer lip over the lip of the tub, whilst feeding the inner part under the lip of the drum. Then fit the tub band, front lip is a doddle, as is the front band.
Lid off gives you better access.
Power off, of course.

Re: Hoover H160e faulty / overheated motor. Replace or new W
A lot of motors appear to survive a brush change, but fail shortly afterwards. The “bedding-in” process for the brushes can generate a lot of heat, especially as most users go straight back to full load laundering rather than giving the machine a few light loads to settle the brushes first.
6 year old Hoover? With family use, it’s probably done its time in all honesty. They aren’t all that good.
Motor is HERE if you decide to repair.
