Thanks for the advice, but having checked the food recently think it may be too far gone. The last temperature showing was -1 but now the fan has stopped completely and there are no more noises, like normal.

I’ve tried pressing a couple of the buttons together and it appears to start the fan then displays H2 and goes quiet again. Appears to do a countdown from 100 as well but nothing happens at the end of it.

There is no information in the instructions about these displays which isn’t very helpful.

The only correct solution would be to either relocate the dryer elsewhere or install another vent kit through the wall to match up. 😕

One of these required I reckon……..

Thanks for the advice. It isn’t possible for me to re-locate the dryer, and instead of installing another vent through the wall wondered if there was some kind of reducer to fit on the large pipe to enable it to fit the smaller vent duct. Or if its possible to fit a smaller vent hose on the new dryer by way of a reducer.

Thanks for all your help.

Have decided on the Bosch GSN32A20GB £509 from Boots Kitchen Appliances and over £40 back in advantage points. Its just slightly bigger and has a few nice features like an interior light.

Sorry about messing up the forums with 2 posts, will know better for next time.

Thanks again, your advice is invaluable.

Timer is over £50 and there are several parts now obsolete for that machine.

Is December 1991 the date production of that model started or ended?

I can’t believe I’ve had the machine that long!

In that case what model would you suggest. I’ve had a look at the Hoover with the biggest capacity but the only thing I don’t like is the solid door. Prefer it if I can actually see the washing going round, stupid I know. I definitely want reverse action, doesn’t have to be condensor if its more expensive as I already have a vent in place. I did have a look at the White Knight one and didn’t really like the feel of the door, felt like it would easily break.

One other thing, don’t need him to get his hand in his pocket, have my own pocket thank you.

Penguin45.

THANK YOU FOR THIS ADVICE, MY HUSBAND HAS TODAY REPLACED THE CARBON BRUSHES AT A COST OF £13.95 AND MY WASHER IS NOW WORKING PERFECTLY AGAIN.

HOPEFULLY I CAN GET ANOTHER FEW YEARS OUT OF IT NOW, ESPECIALLY AS MY FREEZER, FRIDGE AND TUMBLE DRYER ARE ALL ON THE BLINK, ONE LESS APPLIANCE TO REPLACE NOW.

THANKS AGAIN

Re: Is it worth repairing a tumble dryer?

Thanks for all the advice.

Model is Hotpoint Reversomatic Dryer Plus 9325
and on inside of door is says Model No. 9325W and then has the number 59620743, I’m not sure what this number is, whether its the serial number or not.

I didn’t realise the timer and reverse tumble were connected, what sort of cost am I looking at for parts and labour (if you could give me seperate costs that would be very helpful as my husband may be able to buy the part and repair it himself).

These are the repairers that come up when I put my postcode in

Get Smart Appliance Company

My postcode is M29. My husband is going to check the carbon brushes tomorrow to check if that is the problem, although having already checked the machine he didn’t notice anything obviously wrong (although he isn’t a washing machine engineer he is very good at fixing most things). If the brushes seem OK is there anything else you can suggest could be causing the problem.

Thanks again for all the advice.

Thanks iadom for the advice about the time zone, for some reason it was set at GMT+10 hours.

I have had a look at the members in my area but dont recognise any of them nor can I find any of the company names locally.

I’m puzzled by the time and date on my last post, its actually Tuesday Sep 5th 11.02pm

£50ish? Depending on where you’re located?

I’m located west of manchester and south of bolton. Does where I’m located affect the cost? and does the £50ish include labour and parts?

Thanks for all the help and advice to everyone.

Re: Is SAMSUNG J1453SGS/XEU washing machine any good?

Thanks for the advice.

Penguin45 do you think that getting the carbon brushes replaced will fix the problem I’ve got, and if so, how much can I expect to pay for it to be done?
