    Re: Zanussi TC481W Door catch broken

    Is this an old machine?
    Modern machines made by Zanussi including TC481 have a door mechanisn where you press door to close & press door again to release, they should also pull open if you use pressure.

    Re: Indesit IDE44 – Salt indicator and exchanger regeneratio

    Best of luck to you in your indeavours.
    The salt level indicators normally operate with a float switch inside the salt resevoir which has a magnet attached, this operates a reed switch attached to outside the tank. When the salt level is low the float drops, when there is a lot of salt in water it floats up.
    Regeneration takes place at end of wash, by a solenoid valve opening & allowing in water in to regeneration tank, this water enters & is stored as a saline solution, but is not used until next wash starts.

    Re: AEG Lavamat Motor spare part question

    Did you clean the armature of the motor when you changed the brushes?
    If the armature is black with carbon dust or even damaged by the previous worn out brushes it may not work too well.

    I have put P.C.Bs in a few, but before you order one check that the plugs are fully onto connectors of P.C.B.
    Have you checked diagnostics for any fault codes?

    Electronic P.C.Bs gave problems on these Bekos with them losing timing & not coming on after defrost.

    Take a look into the top oven cavity, theres a similar clip in it.
    Normally they are mounted across rear of oven in high position, clipped to top of back cover of oven element.

    Known problems are fan running slow or seized, flap sticking closed, door switch magnet missing or not activating switch therfore fan not always coming on.
    Overfrosting due to defrost heater open circuit.

    There is a service mode to run & check all components.

    Most likely heater of t.o.c at fault. Test with multimeter & you should’nt have to order parts that you won’t need. 😉

    Re: Premature Bearing Failure

    My thoughts are that the appliance manufacturers have increased the load capacity & spin speed without putting in signicantly larger bearings.
    Overdosing of detergent using low temp’ washes & shorter wash times with only one rinse which doesn’t get rid of all the soapy water will lead to the seals going hard, cracking & leaking.
    Once a few drops of water ingress in past seal, the rust begins.

    Have tried comm sticks both soft & hard type but i’ve found very fine emery paper does the job just as good.

    Go for the brushes, clean armature with very fine emery paper too.
