    Samsung American Style Fridge Freezer RS21 Advice pls

    Thanks for the advice Eric. I think mine is a bit different to the picture you have posted as it is a Coolzone model and seems to have two sets of removable panels rather than 1. I could take one off but the problem I have is that I can’t open the door fully as it is next to a wall. The...

    Samsung American Style Fridge Freezer RS21 Advice pls

    I have reposted this with a clearer title. Hope that’s ok. My model number is RS21JLBG which has the cool zone boxes. We seem to have been lucky with this model in that it has operated fine with only a couple of issues for over 10 years including a fan replacement. However, the same thing is...

    Please Delete: Samsung RS21JLBG Advice

    We seem to have been lucky with this model in that it has operated fine with only a couple of issues for over 10 years including a fan replacement. However, the same thing is happening again and it is not that easy this time as I have been told that Samsung don't make parts any longer. I...

    Scale Inhibitors

    We live in a large two bedroom flat in Brighton where the water is very hard and continually have problems with appliances scaling up. I have been advised to buy a scale inhibitor to fit to the main supply. My question is does this thing work...

    Glow Worm 38Cxi won't power up

    No problem, just like to check for the obvious to avoid time/expense but I wouldn't dabble with a boiler.

    Glow Worm 38Cxi won't power up

    Thanks for the constructive feedback. Just wanted to know if I needed a new PCB but I appear to have posted to the wrong forum.

    Glow Worm 38Cxi won't power up

    Hi, I switched my boiler off to fit a new shower thermostat but when I tried to switch it back on it's completely dead. There is power to the boiler but is there anything else obvious I can check? I have also checked the PCB fuse (the fuse is working but there is no power across the fuse) and...

    Problem with Bosch Fridge Freezer - KGV28V01GB

    My mum was trying to move her fridge and managed to pull the mains wires out at the back. A friend of her's reconnected the wires but now two things are happening: The light inside the fridge doesn't come on (she's tried changing the bulb). The food in the fridge keeps freezing and the...

    Table Lamp Stopped Working

    The bulb in my table lamp blew so I replace it but no joy, tried another bulb, still no joy. Changed the fuse in the plug still no joy. Socket works fine so a bit lost. I can only assume the wiring in the lamp has somehow shorted but is this a normal occurrence? The lamp has never been moved.

    Bio Ethanol Fuel Stockists

    Some places refer to this as denatured alcohol (ie non-drinkable stuff) which I thought was meths but I wouldn't want to burn something that had anynasty additives in it.

    Bio Ethanol Fuel Stockists

    Does anyone know of any main stream stores which sell bottles of bio ethanol fuel to be used to a bio ethanol fireplace. I have ran out and the only places I know are via mail order. I live in Brighton but I will be travelling around to Kent tomorrow so would appreciate anywhere in the south east.

    Leaking Flat Roof

    I think my problem is that the lead which sits under the bay has failed. It definitely has one fitted but it looks like it is leaking and probably needs to be replaced. The problem is that it looks like the whole bay has to be taken out to fit the new lead and this is going to be a very big...

    Leaking Roof Terrace at French Doors

    Thanks Alistair, any way of checking without taking the door out? How about pressure hosing that piece of the door and seeing if it leaks downstairs?
