    The leak turned out to be from the soap drawer housing as I explained. The machine is back with the customer and I’ve not heard anything so hopefully sealing the leak did the trick. 🙄

    Re: Another joke.

    1. Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony wasn’t much, but the reception was excellent.

    2. A jumper cable walks into a bar. The bartender says, “I’ll serve you, but don’t start anything.”

    3. Two peanuts walk into a bar, and one was a salted.

    4. A dyslexic man walks into a bra.

    5. A man walks into a bar with a slab of asphalt under his arm and says: “A beer please, and one for the road.”

    6. Two cannibals are eating a clown. One says to the other: “Does this taste funny to you?”

    7. “Doc, I can’t stop singing ‘The Green, Green Grass of Home.'”
    “That sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome.”
    “Is it common?”
    “Well, It’s Not Unusual.”

    8. Two cows are standing next to each other in a field. Daisy says to Dolly, “I was artificially inseminated this morning.” “I don’t believe you,” says Dolly. “It’s true, no bull!” exclaims Daisy.

    9. An invisible man marries an invisible woman. The kids were nothing to look at either.

    10. Deja Moo: The feeling that you’ve heard this bull before.

    11. I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn’t find any.

    12. A man woke up in a hospital after a serious accident. He shouted, Doctor, doctor, I can’t feel my legs!” The doctor replied, “I know you can’t – I’ve cut off your arms!”

    13. I went to a seafood disco last week…and pulled a mussel.

    14. What do you call a fish with no eyes? A fsh.

    15. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. The one turns to the other and says “Dam!”.

    16. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the craft. Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can’t have your kayak and heat it too.

    17. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. “But why,” they asked, as they moved off. “Because”, he said, “I can’t stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer.”

    Re: Ariston programme selector switch

    I had something similar with a Creda washing machine a few years back, fortunately, it was at a guest house that had 2 identical machines so I could compare plug positions with the other one. Now I always do a sketch in my invoice book showing what goes where.

    Also Connect do a bearing kit BRG6091 which includes these 2 bearings and is cheaper than buying them individually. 😀

    Re: Zanussi FLA 1201W motor price

    Probably no help in this case but Homespares have got Zanussi motors on special offer. I just ordered a 9931 motor which fits the Tricity Bendix 800 spin machines, for £27.00. They also are showing the 1000 spin J belt motor at the same price but show nil stock. I suppose if ordering that you would need to check that they will honour that price when new stock arrives.

    But you don’t want to get a reputation for only being able to tackle the simpler faults. Some of the repairers round here claim to do fridge and freezer repairs but they don’t do re-gassing. I would not take on the work unless I knew I could replace the defective component, eg compressor.

    😳 Thanks Bob, pressed that in and away she went. I would never have thought of pressing that one. The machine is one of 4 the local secondhand shop brought here for test/repair.

    I find it frustrating that I end up getting nearly all my spares from Connect because the others tend to be more expensive overall or not stock some of the items I need. This week, for example, I needed Zanussi spiders and Sole carbon brushes. Masterpart wanted nearly double the price Connect were asking for the brushes and their trade price for the spider is more than I charge the customer (if I tried to charge £35 for a spider most of my customers would not want to go ahead with the repair).

    Re: Servis Washer Drier M9309

    Thanks John. The door switch I mentioned is not the main washer interlock but an extra switch that sits on the top of the interlock. I assume this is so you can open the door to check on drying progress.
