Re: Howdens Kitchens
Mate, you should have learnt by now: We pay but were not supposed to have an opinion, they make the descisions (Or think they do) 😆
Seriously though, from what i’ve seen & no doubt you have, theyre poorly made / finished & if you let them fit them usually badly fitted as well.

Your right, when you’re getting tired & teed off with things you don’t think logically. If you need any more help / advice please let us know.
Re: Panasonic Combination Oven
Yes it would be worth getting an Engineer to look at it for you, but I would advise that you find a Panasonic Registered Engineer to look at it for you.
You could take a look at the UKWG find an Engineer feature to see if we have 1 listed in your area.Re: Dead washing machine
Have you checked that there are no loose or disconnected wires?. You should not be doing live testing in any form & definately not with a Neon screwdriver. Would suggest now that it’s time for you to call your local Tech back & let him sort it out.

Re: Howdens Kitchens
Don’t waste your Hard earned cash Jim, from what i’ve seen they’re not much better than Mr Millers offerings used to be.
Re: Dead washing machine
Do any lights come on to show the door is licked or does’nt the machine have this facility? If you don’t have a Multimeter & know how to use it then this is about as far as you can go.
Re: Dead washing machine
I’m beginning to wonder what’s going on here, your original post said that after you found & fitted a thermostat the machine did’nt work except for a click from the Interlock. Now you say that an engineer fitted the thermostat & the machine worked but did’nt heat the water. It would have been quite easy for an Engineer to check if it was the thermostat faulty or not, if he knew what he was doing
Re: Dead washing machine
To be honest without finding out why it does’nt work at all now, I would’nt throw any more parts at it. Have you seen the machine work at all since the local Tech looked at it, the thermostat will not cause a Dead machine.
Re: AEG Favorit 44070vi
Hi sorry for the delay in replying, yes the Heater is a Long round tube. If you take a look at the UK Whitegoods shop@ feature yuo will find your Heater at a very good price. If you don’t feel comfortable carrying out the repair yourself please take a look at the find an Engineer feature.
Re: Dead washing machine
If it was working but running cold before you changed the stat, have a look for any wires or connections you may have accidentally pulled off or loosened that could be causing your problem. You say of course the engineer tested the thermostat, you did’nt say that before you said the Technician told you that was the probable cause of your lack of hot water.

Re: Safety first ?? nah, let’s film it !
Yep it’s American as are most of the Dumb tech tips on there, the Gas appliance repair tips & Microwave repair tips have to be seen to be believed. Although they reckon they have strict rules regarding Electricity & Gas work, it does’nt look like it. Some of the people giving the advice are supposed to be proffesional engineers, Go Figure :rolls:
Re: Dead washing machine
Ok before we start, Iadom & Helo 75 are 2 of the most knowledeable & Helpful engineers around & do not deserve your comments.
Now as to your machine, I don’t know how your “Technicians” do things over there but over here we never advise changing parts without them being tested first.
You say you changed the thermostat & it’s not Exactly the same but fits in the space. Totally wrong especially in a modern machine, the machine is programmed to look for certain Resistances & Feedback from components & if not correct can do all manner of weird things.
If you do not have a Multimeter & know how to use it, then I would advise that you contact a “Technician” local to you & ask them to look at the machine for you, just fitting parts to a machine on the off chance is never a good idea & can cause further damage.
