Re: Zanussi Z919T timer indicator barrel.

Hi Steve,

If you are desperate,I may be able to help with a second hand one, Is it the one with “k” for long spin, “u” for short spin and”v” for drain?

Re: ISE 10 leak from soap drawer

Update! Still leaking!
Since my last post the customer has been placing the powder straight into the drum, thus eliminating the possibility of clogged powder in the drawer.
No leaks for 3 weeks then leaking again at very random intervals. Customer has not changed her routine in any way.

I have now witnessed the leak on two occasions myself. Once during initial fill for the wash and the second leak was while filling for a rinse (not final rinse)

In addition, both the liquid detergent and fabric softener compartments often remain full of water. Like Allen, I have reduced the height of both syphon tubes by 2 or 3mm so that they are now bellow the level of the back of the drawer.

So far no more leaks and the syphoning process is emptying both compartments nearly every time. However the frequency of the leaks has been so intermittent that I can’t be sure the problem is solved.

I still suspect a problem is with the liquid detergent dispenser. The water somehow seems to overflow onto the blue “lid” and get channelled towards the front of the drawer where it can escape and run down the inside and outside of the front panel. I can’t see why it should happen or how it could be so intermittent, it’s just a hunch.

As a process of elimination, I have now drilled out the syphon tube from the liquid detergent compartment so the water now flows straight out through the hole where the tube was. The customer will only use powder.

I am not suggesting this as a solution, but at least the results of this experiment will confirm whether or not the liquid detergent compartment is the source of the problem.

Sorry for such a long post but it seems that several others are having similar problems and if we gather enough info perhaps we can get some answers from Asco.

Will keep you posted.

Re: ISE 10 leak from soap drawer

Looks like you may be right guys, it may be soap powder related. I have asked customer to run a complete cycle with no powder in drawer. She has reported back that it has completed with no leaks. I will be going back on Saturday to look at make of powder and quantity used.

Thanks for help. Will update latter.

Re: AWM712D. E11

Yes. Due to E11 I went along with new door lock and PCB only to find machine full of water. Cleared blocked pump, fitted new PCB. Door lock not needed.

Hi Mike,

Re: Top iPad & iPhone Apps

Anyone using iPad or iPhone to take credit card payments?
iZettle have access to a pre UK launch, trial at the moment. It is only a beta version so some limitations but works very smoothly, great software to use for you and the customer.
Looks expensive @ 2.75{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} commission but, free app to download, no set up fees, no cost for the small chip card reader that plugs straight into your device, no monthly fees, no minimum monthly spend and no contract.
So if like me, you don’t take many credit card payments, it looks good.
Anyone else using it or anything similar?

Re: google maps

I have also have had good results from google maps and had assumed it was the result of signing up and ticking the right boxes.

However, I am currently being hounded by the Thomson Local rep to renew my ad with them and he is telling me that Thomson supplies business info to google maps and without my thomson’s internet package I would slip down the google listings!

Before I tell him where to get off I thought I would check with you guys.

Any thoughts?

Re: Sending Back Invoices

Ken,
This sounds like a great system. Can we introduce something similar for ISE warranty work. I’m sure it would make things easier for us engineers and the ISE office staff.

Re: ISE 10 motor fault

Hi John, I have not dismantled either of my faulty motors yet. Does it look like we may be able to repair them or is replacement motor the only alternative.
I will be taking one of the motors to the meeting in case anyone is interested in seeing this fault.
Ron.
