I love bacon, I think a bacon sarnie is one of the few things that might even tempt a vegetarian. To much is not good for you but that applies to most things but I have been eating it all my life and I'm 85. Peter

Sorry :oops: The above applies to the Beko which I was replacing.

I have had the tray out and yes, it was full of water coming from a leaking water heater. We have our own water supply which is very acidic and it appears to have eaten through the tube. I have ordered a new heater but am just hoping the fault has not damaged the electronics.

Ah sorry. Dishwasher

Replaced hose and pressed reset umpteen times. It washes, goes through the cycle but when the timer gets down to about 15 minutes it stops counting and the 'no water' light comes on and it is empty. Goes on running The contents have been washed but not very well. Goes on running until you turn...

I recently bought this machine secondhand as my Beko had packed up. It completes the washing cycle but goes on running, the 'no water' light comes on and if you turn it off and wait to get the door open the cycle has finished successfully but the count down has stopped and the machine goes on...

Beko slimline, wont fill or run. Sump full emptied it but still wont run motor running but no water filling. The heater appears to be leaking hence the sump full. Have checked the hose connections all OK. Tried resetting motor runs continually but no water. Water feed OK. Thanks

You may not have been using much power but you are still being charged about 50p per day standing charge. Peter

Yes, it was from my workshop, I was a TV engineer for 50 years. Well a new section of pipe a good clean and some S. grease has cured it:cool: I just have about another 8 to do. Had to dig a 4' hole in the hedge to retrieve the coil of pipe, found all sorts of other interesting things under there...

I'm just off down there to take one of the worst sections off and cut a new section of pipe. I do have some silicon grease somewhere but its quite old, I think it came from 'Radiospares'! I have a coil of pipe but its grown into a hedge so I will have to sort that out first. Peter

Thanks for your comments. The pump is near enough the same, I have replaced it several times over the years and have had this problem before but each time I dismantle it the leaking is worse. I have also had other problems which entailed dismantling so its been taken apart a number of times...

I have had this problem on several Peugeot 406's and it was due to the brake backplates rusting between the two layers which pushed them apart and against the discs. Peter

We have a well with a centrifugal pump in the pump house (small shed) with the control gear including a UV system. Its all connected together with 25mm HDPE pipe and fittings. I have just replaced the pump and several of the fittings are leaking especially once it gets up to pumping pressure...

Sounds exciting.;)

I don't understand them either, I thought a key was a key. Anyway two new pulleys later and its OK now if a bit battered. Peter
