Re: Hotpoint FEW 12
Its all well and good refering people back to Hotpoint but it depends on your call-out charge. If like me your call-out is £18 plus vat you can’t keep affording to give work away. I always give people the choice of going back to hotpoint under the 5 years but it’s surprising how many don’t want to.
My normal charge for bearing change on a WMA is £129.
Yes Hotpoint would do it for £94 but the customer has also paid me £21.15 for calling-out.
I would love to charge £40, or more, call-out and then refer the customer back to Hotpoint. I would never have to get my hands dirty.
Re: ISE heater
The heater gasket is the crucial thing to match as Martin experienced. The bosch element has the same gasket as the ISE heater so i’m sure it would be safe.
The bosch machine has a flat surface around the heater aperture i assume the ISE is the same.
Anyone know the ISE heater price?
Re: Hotpoint FEW 12

remove motor and wiring that is ty-wrapped to tub.something along those lines.
Re: Hotpoint WMT03
Try draining off the water into a bowl.
Select spin.
Does it now spin??? (it does take a while to get into the full spin cycle)
Re: Hoover washing machine overheats
I would focus more on the wash thermostat side of things rather than the door seal etc.
Does the cycle stick on the heat position or if left does it continue through????
Thermostat scaled up / wiring damaged / thermostat faulty / timer faulty
all possibilities,
unplug appliance before working on it!!!!!!!
Re: Servis M2002W causing power cut-out
Numerous things can cause the trip to go. Are you sure your not running to many appliances off the main fuse which is tripping?
If machine at fault could be suppressor, capacitor, heater, wiring. very unlikely to be the thermostat as this would generally give you a no heat fault.
unplug machine if investigating!!!!!
Re: Hotpoint BWD129 Washer/Dryer Stops on Programme G
worth checking that the drain hose isn’t to low. the g programme may have a higher fill level than the d programme. (the drain hose being to low or to far down the house drain pipe causes syphoning of the water.)
Re: Hotpoint WF560
Sorry can’t get that info (customer not answering calls). do you have a list of fault codes for both types of WF560 ❓
thanks.
Re: Hotpoint WM63 Overfilling on rinse
it will probably be pressure tube rubbing on upper tub clip. This sort of customer always makes a more statistical log of faults. they have nothing better to do than make up graphs of there washing machine fault. Probably work in a boring office job all day! 😀
Re: Hotpoint W/D – 9936
The machine moves the wire to the chaffed position as it comes down off the final spin. (Different speeds cause different movement of wire). It sounds a long shot but i does happen.
