Hi Dave,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, unfortunately the glass did smash.
The following link is for a replacement part that is “supposedly” genuine but they are unable to confirm the colour. I previously attempted to get a replacement when it was first broken and was sent a brown one and then a black one until I eventually found out that our model colour is now obsolete. As it’s an expensive part I don’t want to go through another order and return cycle unnecessarily, hence my enquiry on this forum.
If I can’t get the correct colour then Senior Management (aka my partner!) has said the she will accept a black version as she has now become accustomed to it and as we are hoping to sell the house this year we do not want to replace the whole appliance only to leave it behind. I don’t suppose there’s anywhere that sells reclaimed/second hand/old stock parts is there?
Cheers,
SteveAbsolutely 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} positive nothing is missing or has been missed. There was nothing connected to it when I took it out and I have no parts left over after rebuilding the machine. Everything has been accounted for.
Many thanks for your help and patience Dave, it has been very much appreciated!
SteveNo, the spout has never been blanked out which is why I’m questioning the orientation.
If I were to rotate the whole seal clockwise by 30o I’d be less concerned however, the drain hole would then no longer be in the 6 o’clock position and there would be a permanent puddle in the bottom of the seal. If the spout is actually redundant and a plug does exist then I’d prefer to fit one rather than rotate the seal. Alternatively I suppose I could just make one.
Steve
No, I did not buy this part. It is the original seal fitted when I bought the machine two and a half years ago. The only new part that I have bought is the drum assembly.
Steve
Firstly, thank you all for your comments. I have managed to get both sorted now although counter intuitively I found the inner one was much easier than the outer!
Thank you also for the youtube link Dave, I’d buy one of those in an instant if I had to do this regularly!
One final question, I stupidly did not make a note of the correct orientation of the seal itself. I fitted it with the little drainage hole in the bottom 6 o’clock position but I am curious about the little spout that sticks out of the left side of the seal (slightly below the 9 o’clock position) that goes nowhere and doesn’t attach to anything. It looks like water could escape from it and cause a puddle down by the drain pump. Can you tell me what its for please and confirm that I have in fact got the seal correctly orientated?
Many thanks.
Thank you Dave. I had pretty much come to the same conclusion myself.
No doubt the manufacturing production lines are fully equipped with tooling to make it quick and easy but it’s a shame they couldn’t stick to “old circlip technology” for ease of repair!
Thank you once again.
Thanks for that Dave, I’ve tried setting the oven to 80 degrees but it definitely started to get too hot. Next question…. please can you tell me where the thermostat is located? This oven was purchased in 2008/2009 so can I assume from the part numbers you gave me that the correct replacement part will be C00231795?
Many thanks
WizzRe: ZDC37200W Synthetic Cycle overheating
Thank you Dave, I’ve found it now. Am I correct in assuming that this thermostat is probably the culprit and are there any tests I can do to confirm? I’ve checked continuity and that is ok but then that is what I would expect. I’m assuming that it doesn’t switch but then without taking the control board out I can’t find a point that I can monitor. Is it actually a thermistor and if so what should be it’s default resistance value?
Many thanks,

Re: Bosch WFX2867GB doesn’t work
Thank you Dave.
Yes, no display, and totally lifeless and I had just come to the same conclusion as you (I don’t know what voltage the control PCB operates at but I would say that its a reasonable bet to suspect the low voltage regulator circuit for the display etc.).
Sadly the spares department does not seem to have one of these in stock and the only one I’ve been able to track down so far comes in at a cool £271.61. In view of the age of the machine I think I’ll just have to bite the bullet and buy a new one.
Many thanks,
SteveRe: Creda Tumble Dryer trips the RCD on High setting…..
Many thanks for your help. I’ve placed an order for new stats now using the link that you supplied… for which many thanks! If I have any more problems then doubtless I’ll be back next weekend.
Best regards,
WizzRe: Creda Tumble Dryer trips the RCD on High setting…..
The heater kit that I fitted was purchased this week from UK White Goods spares (see web-link kindly supplied by “Twoten” back in January: heater (corrected link)) but no thermostats were supplied, I had to transfer the old ones to the new unit. Its an expensive part (£74.54 + delivery) so if the stats should be included then the kit was incomplete. Sadly it was delivered mid week so I am now well outside the 24 hour period to notify about missing parts. The description does not mention any stats either so are you sure they should be supplied as part of the kit?
Thanks for the warning about not pressing the bases of the stats… oops! too late, I did, so sounds like I definitely need to replace them anyway.
Re: Creda Tumble Dryer trips the RCD on High setting…..
Hi,
I have just replaced the heater unit and that seems to have stopped it tripping the RCD however it still doesn’t even get warm. One of the two thermostats seems to be stuck so its a very likely candidate for replacement but is there anything else that I should check out before going down this route? Could you also let me know the part number for the thermostats.
Many thanks,
WizzRe: Servis Tumble Dryer not heating….
Oh dear, I spoke too soon, the saga continues! Having reset the thermostat it worked fine for a short while but now its only “slightly warm” at best. Please can someone tell me what the heater element resistance should be? and where I might be able to buy a new one if necessary?
By the way Washman was right about the Model number, it is M200W-1UK
