Re: scrappage scheme …..for white goods…!!!!
It all depends on what they offer in relation to age, efficiency and carrot.
The car scheme has removed a large number of “old smokers” from the road. It has also taken a toll of fine classic cars, one or two of which have been saved at the last moment and a few which the owners clubs have managed to strip to a shell before it gets crushed. The real problem is that many of the ten year old vehicles were in perfectly decent working order and were only marginally less efficient than the new vehicles replacing them. The main group taking up the scheme were the older generation, who could look at a new car (particulary the Matiz) and get it for £2k less. “Nice new car will see me out” attitude.
What no-one has taken into account is the initial production energy used to build these scrapped cars. Many of the cars disposed of by the older generation are actually low mileage vehicles which have hardly begun to amortise their production footprint.
The difference between that position and ours is money. A car is usually the second most expensive item (after the house) that anyone buys. To this day, I do not understand why people buy new cars. Taking ownership, turning the key and moving the vehicle for the first time costs you £2-3K in depreciation. By the same token, buying a domestic appliance in the current climes and plugging it in renders it valueless. The re-con market is more or less a dead duck; the public will either repair or replace depending on what they spent in the first instance.
Given that I charge £50 for an hours work and the government may offer some sort of partnership scheme with the manufacturers and/or retailers to give you £50 off a new appliance, what are the cattle – sorry – public going to do? Do I have to answer that? We all know what it is.
And the production footprint arguement is still valid and will be conveniently overlooked – again.
As a by-the-by, does anybody actually understand that we’re only just coming out of the last Ice Age? It’s a 20,000 year cycle (roughly). It’s recorded and documented for millions of years by our scientists. The last few thousand years, we’ve been bumping along the bottom part of the sine wave on the graph and now it’s heading upwards. And it will do so for the next 10,000 years until it gets very hot indeed, regardless of our pathetic, disorganised, money pinching, “Not me ‘guv” attitude to the problem. It is just what the planet has done through recorded history.
10,000 years after that though, you’re all in trouble. It will be very cold indeed and the penguins will be back.

Re: Football season 09/10
Just 5 days into the season and Spurs sit proudly at the top of the Premier League. After the last two years fiascos, who would have thought it?
Bit quiet from the Lancashire side of the Peninnes, me thinks…. Ex-Spurs man Carrick will definitely be training tomorrow – possibly all day. :snig:

I might be looking at the pcb, Mike, rather than the wiring – the soldering iron is your friend 😀 .

Re: smegg dw
He was working ’til 7pm, had some dinner, had a quick run through UKW, took Twin1 to Air Cadets, tried to sort the misfire on the Wolseley, went and did some stuff on WolseleyForum.com, tried to sort out some part numbers on UKW, tried to follow the Spurs game on the radio, went and got Twin1 back from Air Cadets, tried to do a bit on UKW, then went to the pub. Nice relaxing evening, really. :rolls:
Right – corruption issues. Mains suppressors crack open and allow power through – sort of, but generate electrical noise. Dispenser solenoids become damp, have bad connections, soggy wiring and generate electrical noise. Start/run capacitor on motor can even do it. Once you work your way through that little lot, there is always the possibility that the (very expensive) pcb is simply borked.
What you’re describing does not sound like a “logical” fault, so the pcb is involved somewhere. All “standard” faults generate an error code.
