    Hisensne WD3 Washing machine drum not turning.

    Yes, there will be either 1 wire to each terminal and one to the element body (earth) or 2 wires together on one side and one on the other. Just replace them in the same order as you remove them. Taking a pic before you start might be a good idea. Depnding on your meter you will get a low...

    Concrete Coping - Parapet Roof - Am I going mad?

    A shorter piece is better and more secure in the middle than on the end. You would be calling him back to refix it after a storm. You won't notice it next week. Perhaps the heat is affecting you too.

    Rubber conservatory roof side coming away help

    i think your wire mesh may be defeating the object. the collection of so many leaves won't help anything when soaked in water. As Deluks says clean all the other debris from behind it at the same time and seal it once refitted

    Hisensne WD3 Washing machine drum not turning.

    I guess you checked that there was no damage to belt and other drive components while you were checking for brushes. Was the drum free to turn by hand. Did the water drain ok. Are there any error codes. Is it the same in all modes.

    Lillies and fuchsias?

    Thin bit is one of the old flower stamen, it's the part of the flower that had the pollen and sometines seeds are formed. What you call the the inner stem is where the petals of the flower were attached. The outer stem is where the flower bud would have begun it's life and developed into a flower.

    Lillies and fuchsias?

    You just need to remove the flower head stalks and leave to allow the bulb to build up for next year. By late Autumn it will have shed it's leaves and juse leave the main stalk. Once that has gone dry and brittle, either late winter or early spring just wiggle the stem until it easily comes...

    Thermostat.

    I think that is a volt free stat which means it just switches whichever voltage is supplied to it by a boiler or programmer but it might have a mains voltage supplied to it to make it operate. Carefully take it off the wall and see if it has 4 wires going into the back of it. You can test it...
