    Re: Drum support failure… Do I win a prize?

    only had a dozen spiders corrode in the eleven years I’ve been in the trade. It seems to happen when the customer has a water-softener in their house. (salt water-softeners). i’m based in bedfordshire which is a hard water area.

    apparently a diagnostic check is run upon start up of machine, so any faults found can prevent any cycle from starting.

    I assume the inverter is located on the main board? Is there any way of testing these motors / inverters?

    Re: Samsung Q1636S w/m

    Seen a few samsung machines. Does the motor judder before it flashes up the error code? If it does more the module than the motor. (I’d like someone to explain the motor operation as well.)

    Sounds like a partial blockage to me. Either on the pressure side or drain side. Had a few bosch pumps cutting out later on in the cycle, so could be a possibilty. Had a weird fault on a bosch last week due to low insulation on heater, so always worth elliminating.

    Complete tub removal to do this repair, i would say it’s to much work for £100. (Considering cost of spares required.) These new servis are more tricky than a wma as front panel dosen’t come off.

    Brushless motor. Try the start capacitor. Unplug the machine before you do anything.

    Re: Hoover AS130-001

    Is this the correct model?I’ve never seen an as130 with a pressure chamber on the sump hose. this set up is normally on the hoover six models and later. The pressure chamber should be next to the heater at the back.

    Re: drum bearing

    Very involved job. Bearings and shaft can be changed but whole outer tub assembly has to be removed from machine. If your sure the bearings have failed get the job done by hotpoint under the 5 year free parts guarantee.

    Re: Philco PA207

    Sounds to me like a partial blockage somewhere on the drainage side, hence poor wash and no initial spin. Selecting the spin again is just giving the pump that extra bit of time. Electrue list a whole selection of spares for that model including bearing seal.

    Re: Servis M3101A Wiring

    two white wires to thermistor. 2 grey wires to thermostat. Grey from thermostat to heater, and black to heater.
    The thermostat/thermistor has 4 tags. Two tags are the normally closed thermostat side and the other two tags are the thermistor side. Ring them out two determine which is which, 0 ohms is the thermosat side.
    Hope this tallys with your machine.

    Re: hoover hp6 130m

    If this is the newer model which has a small timer/selector and a module next to it then its the module at fault. (99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure). The only timer/selector faults I’ve had are when the programme starts ok and the selector/timer clicks round as it fancies.
