    Re: Diplomat D/w

    Who knows what conversation went on between the last engineer and the customer, after all… No charge? And if the module cant be re-programed?
    Sounds like a favour to me.
    I hate these Ar*****e type customers. They are a pain in the A**e and make the job harder than it is. I think I would throw their refund at them and tell them to ‘please never ring me again….’ and put it down to a bad unlucky experience.

    Re: Hoover HNC 170 Heater Change?

    I have done a few of these, and followed the advice of a friend of mine who worked for Hoover. Hed told me to butt connect the wires on the condensor driers. I have followed his advice with no repercussions what so ever. ( over the last 2 years).

    Re: Zanussi slim line top loader beeps 10 times

    Ok, thanks for the info. I have contacted the customer and they are going to get back to me the next time it faults on them. Typical this job is out of the usual area I cover so I dont really want to keep going back to it but the customer bought the machine off us so I’m commited.
    Regards,
    Robert.

    Not good at all, but I suppose it’s to be expected with Servis Brand. It really is the pitts! I would imagine the tub and drum would cost more than a replacment machine.

    Re: Baumatic Spares

    Usualy these machines are merloni type so fairly universal. However, If the interlock holds shut untill the on/off switch is depressed it will be a Siltal type machine (same as CDA CI392) and may be a bit difficult to source. Baumatic Spares are usualy good at sending parts out to trade or domestic customer.

    Your better using a Mega than a continuity tester with a fault like that…. ❗ Although a mega is probably useless with an askol/plasset pump. Great for motors and heater elements though.

    Re: W/pool ADP4400 pulsing?

    LOTS AND LOTS of problems with those over sized askol circulation pumps. I had a contract with CDA (before they dropped us for their own engineers after agreeing to take their extra jobs and taking on a corgi/refrigeration/general white goods engineer and buying him a brand new van to help them out with THEIR agent work… :evil:) which is a different story, repairing their CW494 whirlpool dishwashers and the amount of problems with that type of motor was massive! But I suppose thats just a drop in the ocean considering the problems with their later version of dishwasher.

    Re: Hotpoint TDC32P condensor tumble dryer strange fault???

    I Now have this thing sat in my workshop awaiting a free spell of time to sort out. I have taken off the stat in the door enclosure and shorted it out. (No diferent). Fitted a new green spot TOC kit just in case. (no different). Checked the 3 tag microswitch which is ok and removed and very closley inspected the heater element which looks as new almost. In fact apart from a bit of dust, this entire machine looks in excelent condition. SO………… looks like the timer is faulty, anyone with any further ideas? Timer is aprox £18 + vat cost from connect distribution so its not the end of the world if I get it wrong i suppose. 😕

    Re: hotpoint TDC62G killing toc’s…

    I Think my origonal thoughts of a faulty PCB could be behind this one. I have it sat in my workshop under-going lots of tests with damp washing. I drilled a hole in the back of the stat so I can keep re-setting it. The drying neon is on before the start button is pressed as Iadom mentioned. This inspired me to give the relay switches a quick tap with a screwdriver handle and the drying light is now out, but it has now developed a no motor action fault… Ehhhhh things we do for money…. Thanks for your help guys. Customer thinking about goiong back to Hotpoint under 5year parts warrenty.

    Re: AEG L74630 UPDATE CONFIG CODE?

    The old board came back to life enough for us to get the code off it. Installed origonal code to new PCB. Tested OK !!!!!

    Thanks for all your help guys.
