    Hi Steve1,

    Belling Hinge kits – definately got some… not sure what state they’re in but I remember doing a spate of them a few years back… not sure what condition the kits are in – might have been opened, not sure. I’m normally pretty good at looking after stuff so you could be in luck.

    Got to go and kill a few jobs off. I’ll try and get back after lunch and dig them out from my “old” store as I call it or pile O’ junk the boss calls it.

    Re: Zan ZDQ695X – Earth Fault…

    Thanks spanner51 and Seamy,

    I did go back and re-tested everything with the cooker completely disconnected and still no joy. I have seen faulty lamps causing problems but I checked them both with both connections taken off. 😕

    I’m a bit of a Rottweiler really,I don’t normally let things go and always like to get to the bottom of things incase I come accross them again.

    I think the customer is looking to get rid of it. To be honest I think she’s quite pleased at the thought of a new oven. I’ll report back…

    Re: Belling Classic Double Ninety

    Thanks guys,

    The BL1439 are a bit short and I can’t see any that might fit on MP site.

    CS75 looks like it will do the job – I’ll get a couple and give it a go.

    Thanks again

    Re: Zan ZDQ695X – Earth Fault…

    what a bafoon, that’s me not you. Yes of course. Why I didn’t disconnect it I don’t know. I do it when PAT testing. Then again, 99.99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} percent of the time you can ID the faulty item easily when doing repairs. I guess I just jumped in. I feel a tad embarrassed 😳 😳 :boops:

    I’ll re-check with all disconnected. I’m not convinced there is problem with the cooker, I still think it’s a line fault. AFter testing if I get no earth fault? I might just connect the supply to an isolated 40a connection box switch the supply back on – I bet it trips. I can’t test any further I don’t have the kit. I’m still not convinced it’s the cooker. Why 2 seperate B Gas sparkies? I’ll let you know how I get on.

    Thanks

    Hi Steve 1,

    No it was still connected. I’ll try with it disconnected. What are you thinking? A fault on the supply line?

    Recent Tragedy.

    I dont think it’s appropriate to make jokes after this tragedy. I know its hard to feel sorry or sympathy because they’re foreign, but we have to remember they lost everything in almost an instant, they’ve been left with nothing.

    Oh well, theres always next season Arsenal.

    Sometimes, perseverance and persistance, (or in my case damn right stubbornness) pays off in the end. When it does, it makes you feel good and occasionally might even earn you a nice cuppa and some biscuits….

    Well done fella…..

    Re: Hotpoint WF340 – all lights flashing

    was the c17 cap. works a treat now.

    Also got told in no certain terms that I’m talking out a my back side – well according to the customers son. It’s the appliance that is causing the sewer smell not his work.

    So checked machine, not a particularly bad smell inside. Normal level of WM odour, nothing a service wash can’t sort out.

    Pulled machine out and the sewer smell filled the room. Woman started, see I told you it’s the washer not my sons work….. errrmmm bites lip and shuts up.

    Also got told that the leak from the pipework is not there as well… it was there again when I checked !!

    Finished the job and whilst filling out the receipt, you could hear the doubt in her voice… it is the machine isn’t it??? My son wouldn’t rip me off would he?? I did pay £14K for me kitchen…… chuffing hell….

    From what I could see, amoungst many other problems, the WM empties into a stand pipe with no trap on it…… She loves him, she must do for £14K for a bog standard Howdens kitchen with reused old appliances.

    Re: Frost and cold fill valves

    Cornflakes, that might help a little. What I see happening is the supply hose is starting to freeze as it’s external to appliance and even touching an external brick wall. More often or not I see the ridgid parts of the hose gives way first or in tandum with the valve. The flexible part of the hose can cope with a small amount of expansion. I may be wrong….

    However, I have had a good amount of work removing machines from garages and shoe horning them into kitchens. All in all a very good earner that last cold spell 😀 😀 😀 😀

    I did run out of valves and had to do a certain amount of re-use of second hand/old parts (with the agreement of customers). I also nearly ran out of hoses at one stage until I re-stocked.
