Re: Servis ML6103AL washing machine.
Two wire clamp bands; there is a scew band on the front of the tub as well. The job is awkward rather than difficult, as you are working into the narrow gap between the tub and the casing. Patience is the key.
Please check the model number – the only references I’m getting are motor bike tyres and wedding dresses….. 😀

Re: Ariston – A1636s Error F03?
As mentioned before, the ntc sensor is mounted in the heating element in the back of the drum. It should have two skinny blue wires running away from it to the pcb.

Re: Dishwasher door trips RCD
It’s possible that you have a wiring issue in the door, but much more likely that the heating element has gone to earth.
Power off if you intend to investigate this yourself.

Re: Hotpoint FDW20
That’s the fella – comes with the locking ring attached, so a quarter turn to fix it on the spray tube is all that’s required.

Oh, Ken – don’t worry about the rope – it’ll be a budget Chinese job.

Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
Sordid is what happens between two people in private. This has been rather public…
No, I’m not happy. There’s a core group on this site who bust a gut to help people. Days and hours of work put in for no tangible reward, other than providing information, advice, support, numbers, sources and money making opportunities, all for free, no questions and no reward expected.
There are trade members of this site learning the job through the forums. There are trade members who post questions so basic that you wonder what they’ve been doing with their time. Their are trade members who struggle to express themselves clearly. If possible, all the questions get answered without extra comment. There are also people who wander in occasionally, want info, can’t say thanks and then complain that they can have help but others shouldn’t. Hello …..?
If you give all this away for free, there has to be a balance or compromise. My pennance, and the other Moderators, Admin and a blessed few others is to make the Public Forums work. It’s what keeps the site alive and free. Keep the page counts up and you’ll get advertising, some sponsorship and life gets a little easier for all of us.
As far as this bl@@dy video is concerned, it’s a sales tool. Go into shop@, select ->Washing Machines->Bosch -> Carbon Brushes. Tab down and there it is. It is not promoted in any way on YouTube and has been quietly sat there for the last six months-odd, helping shop@ sell brushes for the extra £3 profit that retail brings, until the House Troll chose to blow the whistle on it by posting the YouTube link. Context you see, context. After you’ve advised how to do the job about a hundred times, you start losing the will to live – it’s a one time fix, job done.
Perhaps our grumblers might like to spend some time in Articles and Help and advise us how they should be handled? Better still, go and lobby your local DIY store to close – or – at least steal all their “How To” fliers. After all, plumbers, painters and plasters are suffering as well.
Anyway. A few bridges burnt in this thread as far as I’m concerned with regard to our lovely membership.
Remember: “Push, lift, pull and out”.

Re: Ariston – A1636s Error F03?
If you have already replaced the pcb, no it isn’t.
So – go and buy a basic test meter. It’ll cost you about a tenner. Remove plug from mains and NTC sensor, use the probes to perform a resistance test. You should get a reading in kOhms. Replace plug in NTC, remove matching plug on pcb, and measure from that end – you should get a very similar reading.
Unfortunately, throwing parts at an appliance until it works is an expensive and inefficient way of achieving a repair.
