Excellent. Thanks so much. If you have patience for one more question- How does the detergent in gel form, get over the dam? I assume it is partially flushed and diluted with water, but quite a bit must still be trapped by the dam. The alternative, as per the instructions on the container, is...

Apologies, blind as a bat! . It is a WD62

Is 1200 sufficient? If not, can you say where more details are shown? Thanks.

There are 3 separate places to put powder or liquid detergent. Also the right hand place has an option, by rotating a gate, of either a vertical wall or a wall with two holes in it. Please can someone tell me where liquid detergent goes. Many thanks.

When my Hotpoint Aquarius 1200 empties water before the spin cycle the water comes up into the kitchen sink. When the pump stops the water drains away as with normal sink water. This is a new problem. My guess is that the drain pipe from sink to grid, about 3 metres in length, is partially...

My portable fridge can run off a 12v battery and I need to attach it to the cigarette lighter on the car. My problem is that I have a suitable plug to attach to the fridge but There is no indication on the socket about + and-. If I connect it the wrong way round will it damage the fridge? If...

Thanks Rocks, If you are still there, and not gone down to the beach! As I have to do lots of moving things to disconnect the pipes before I start, is it easy to take the top off? Thanks

I'm BLINKIN' USELESS. I'm trying to remove the lh side panel. 2 screws at front but something else is stopping it coming off. Not sure what will still be holding it? You guys must do this every day.

I have a Bosch dishwasher. (ENR No: SGS4012 GB/14). It is about 8 years old and appears to be working perfectly. However I can hear the inlet valve switching on and off about 16 times at the start of each fill. That's 50 times every wash. I suspect this is a fault but the answer from Bosch is...

I have a bed-side FM Sony Radio. I use it to listen mostly to BBC Radio 4 and Radio 2. It can have perfect reception or total interference when it is moved even a few inches. It is 10 ft from the window. It has a 2 ft. dangly wire aerial and it's driving me bonkers. I can move the power...

Calm down Conny. I appreciate you come from Liverpool, but there was no need for that. I asked a question and got an answer. Thanks everybody else. My next project is to make some fireworks. The electriclty has gone off and I'm trying to do it by candle light. I've only got one eye these...

Because maybe, just maybe, they are the same and they can sell two rather than one. So can you say what will happen if i try it? Either nothing, or ruin the charger? Thanks for your comments. Norsey

I often read that there are special chargers that will recharge ordinary AA batteries " up to 10 times". Is it feasible to stick non-rechargeable AA alkaline batteries in a normal charger to get more out of them, or does this damage the charger? Norsey

I've got bog-standard Sky. The thing is, I am a BT broadband user and have their BT Vision box on my TV. Free useage and probably does all that Sky + does (stop whilst out of the room, go back, record 2 programmes at once, 80 hours of recordings etc.). I've only still got Sky to watch their...

I'm getting poor quality picture and sound on several programmes including BBC1 and ITV. Quality is excelent on all the other channels. Sky say I need a £60 engineer visit to check the dish and it's LNB (the bit sticking out of the dish). My signal strength is 90% and signal quality about...
