Re: Haier faier….
Hmm thought we did’nt give out service info to the Public?
Wonder where he got the idea of Selenium Rectifiers in Washing Machines? Far as I know they stopped useing Selenium rectifers in anything over 40 years ago as it was just too dangerous.Re: Panasonic NN-A554W Not heating food
Hi: I’m sorry but we don’t give out repair information for Microwave ovens, there are no user serviceable parts inside. Microwaves hold lethal voltages even when turned off & unplugged and should only be repaired by Trained Engineers with the proper Test Equipment.
Re: Hotpoint Twinny Problem
Hi James: Leave it with me for a day or 2 & I will see if I can get anything, for you.
Re: Hotpoint Twinny Problem
Nice pictures James, thanks brings back some memories.
Will keep my eye out for any parts for you, what’s the Model number of the Twinny?Re: Hotpoint Twinny Problem
Now your going back a bit James, If memory serves the motors on these were a relay start induction motor. If the relay is gone then both start & run windings may be energised at the same time & the motor will fry, unfortunately you will probably need to replace both the motor and relay.
When you remove the back of the machine you should see the relay in front of you attached to the chassis, it has a small Black or Brown base with a coil of fairly heavy gauge wire at the top & 3 connecting wires.
Actually we have several Irish engineers on the Trade side of the forum.
Strangely enough a short while ago I sold a Vintage radio to a young collector named James a short while ago, he was based in Ireland as well.Please remember: POWER OFF & PLUG OUT BEFORE DELVING IN, a :zap: will seriously ruin your day.
Re: Electrolux fan Oven EOB5630 keeps cutting out
Glad to see it’s not only me into Vintage Electronics, I restore Vintage radios & CB equipment when I have the time. If you need any more info please let me know & i will try to help you out.
Re: Consumer unit keeps tripping when turning oven on
Hi: Please explain the shape of your element for me, the part number I listed for you is for an M shaped element with both terminals on the Left hand side. Can you maybe post up a picture of your old element?.
Re: LG Dryer TD-C70045E electrical short
You should be able to remove the plastic frame from around it, the resin may be a problem. The way I usually do it in the workshop is to use a Freezer spray to make it brittle & then slowly & carefully break it away bit by bit.
If you have a Multimeter, use it on the ohms range & test from each pin of the Triac to the pins of the connectors until you find the correct pin.
With that level of short you should be able to find the faulty part relatively easily just by useing resistance checks.Re: LG Dryer TD-C70045E electrical short
Hi: The BCR 8PM is an 8 amp 400/600 volt control Triac, which is quite a hefty device so you must have a fair s/c to blow it like that. To find out what it controls follow the PCB print to it’s connector & then follow the wiring from there to the component, a Multimeter resistance check should prove the point. Rather than paying the cost of another new PCB the 2 you have can probably be repaired.
Re: ctd 40
It’s no bother mate, we’re here to help each other out, don’t forget to check the wiring harness & board connectors as well they’re noted for causing hassle.

Re: Electrolux fan Oven EOB5630 keeps cutting out
Glad to hear you have a healthy respect for Electricity, too many people treat it with contempt. Please let me know how you get on.

Re: Frost and cold fill valves
Better off in our pockets than the punters, 😆 but I won’t hold my breath for the calls to come rolling in. Only had 1 pop in the last lot.
