Re: AWZ7813 what’s difference between wheel roll and shaft+r
Front shaft is the push on open “D” type. Rear shaft is a screw on one. Wheels are the same front and back.

Re: MW511 – lots of problems
It’s a “sequencing error” between the display board and the motor controller. If unplugging the machine and leaving it for a while doesn’t clear it, you are advised to turn off the “auto re-start” feature on the machine. This means that it will stop when it actually faults rather than trying to carry on through the cycle – it should throw up a new code.

Re: Whirlpool AWM 6163 motor / tacho fault?
P31 – the lower terminals should both look identical. The left hand terminal has pulled the connector out of its housing.
Don’t know if that will actually help or not.

Re: Cricket 2009.
If the pitch has gone back to “placid” mode, they might just do it.
I once batted 35 overs for 1 (n.o.) to get a losing draw in the Wetherby League – AND got told off for the 1……….

Re: Belling door hinges
It’s obviously an incentive from Whirlpool to ensure careful treatment…… Shocking price really.

Re: Hoover HL7166 not starting. Lights flashing.
Count the pattern of the flashing lights – ie 1-2-3-4-pause-repeat.

Re: Smeg SA 663 X – won’t move through the cycles.
It does look like a very similar machine to the one I found.
The way that these timer driven machine work is that the timer is continuously powered apart from when the machine is heating. Timer stops, heater comes on, thermostat completes the circuit and restarts the timer. If you run the Pre-wash (might be Soak on a SMEG), there is no heat so an application of No 1 ear should let you hear the timer ticking away to itself.
Many SMEG machine have a manual safety stat undeneath – if it trips, the timer should advance itself to a heat position and stop, waiting for the temperature to rise – which, because the safety has gone out of circuit, it never does. However, manually advancing the timer should let the timer run on to the next heat position – usually second rinse. If this is what it’s doing, get the base tray out, look for the little red button and press it.
It is possible that the motor powering the timer has failed, but if it was working before you worked on the machine a failure there seems a little unlikely.
