Best to get multimeter and megger out & check motor, and heater for earth leakage.

circuit board faulty, etc..

Re: HOTPOINTtumble dryers (the belt breaking bearing muncher

I’m thinking if doing a mod’ by using a bigger belt with a tensioner mounted onto motor end somehow.
Pressure from the elasticated belts damages rear drum bearing, motor bearing & busts belt.
Bad design i’m afraid.

Re: Miele W1613 washing machine F53

Think the end plate is available on its own less than £100 i’d imagine, check tacho magnet isn’t cracked or deformed.
To be honest its one of those that could turn out a pig, i’d be thinking theres a fault on the tacho, magnet or wiring, even connections of tacho on endframe. It could of course be the P.C.B at fault and its pricey then of course.
If you can borrow a motor or just endplate from another appliance
that you know is good it will point to whats the fault.
In the past a new end frame has let me out but each is different.

Re: Zanussi Cooker ZCV662MXC

Possibly, on turning through the different sequences of the selector sometimes it breaks one side of the supply before the other for instance which may cause tripping. Best to get out the meter and test, check polarity to appliance. Check everything in circuit, perhaps fan or lamp couuld be at fault either.

Re: Beko F/F CDA543FW

Mini p.c.b in fridge is the control only, if you look at the main board at back, one of the connections goes to an NTC in freezer section as far as I remember.
Most likely on this one its a stuck relay though as if theres a faulty sensor the machine defaults to timed running of the compressor.

Re: Miele W844 – removing drain filter for inspection

Most likely theres something stuck inside preventing it from unscrewing correctly, you will have to take complete filter unit & pump off to get it stripped i’d imagine.

Re: aeg pe9038 coffee maker

Done a few, pig of a job.
From right hand side of coffee maker, the cluster comes off by taking out 2 long screws from side, this will allow you take cluster unit off completely and work at it.

Re: Miele W1613 washing machine F53

The motor endplate comes off motor in situ, it includes brushes, holders, tacho coil & plug connecton.
If you identify the cable from tacho at the motor connection, turn the drum by hand through the open door, it should generate a voltage up to 3 volts on meter depending on how fast you turn it, this will prove if tacho coil is generating voltage or not.

Re: Miele dryer T8822c eratic times shown

I’d be testing for earth shorts, assuming the condensor is clean.. All times are estimates by the way, so if it says an hour left it could take 70mins for instance..

Re: Electrolux fridge freezer 0 degree sensor damaged

Sensor should read between 4200ohms (15c) – 3500ohms (20c) at room temp’. If its faulty most of them are repairable but its a rewire job fitting kit in place of original.

Most common fault on these are the fan not running which causes no transfer of cold air up to fridge from freezer section. Many of them the fan can only be replaced by replacing the evaporator battery which entails refrigeration regassing etc.
Make sure freezer door is closed, fan won’t run with door open 😉

Re: Stoves oven thermostat

Instructions are clear it is quite sraightforward if you take your time, but its not a nice job if you have an over shoulder looker.

Re: Beko DSC64S Dryer

If its an NTC the value should change with temperature ( so even putting it in palm of your hand will change reading), usually its in the K’ohms, have you found out why it went out on overtemperature? Worth testing of any of the heater ‘stats or sensors are down to earth, this is one of the main reasons of heater & board failure on them!
If you go to the plug connection of heater you should be able to test complete element.
