prime suspect motor. Insulation or windings breaking down as on final spin motor draws maximum current

Yes the brushes are number one suspect.It is a symptom on this machine to stop on the rinse/spin part of the program indicating the brushes have come to end of their life.

Yes thanks guys you were spot on the mobo was connected correctly but I had the connector to the drive reversed.I can only think I must have not seated it correctly when I tried it the correct way previous. Puzzling why designers did not simply key these connections, normally fitting a...

ok cheers for that I will try that and let you know

Yes I realised the connector cable can be reversed as it is not keyed but on reversing the cable one way the led does not illuminate so I know the cable is the correct way round.The led is permantly illuminated and f10 does save and exit the bios set up but when I boot up again it still does...

Hi I have recently purchased a pc which came without a floppy drive I have now installed an internal one but cannot find anywhere in the bios set up a facility for setting the pc to auto detect the drive. The pc does not recognise it. Am I missing something here,Is it possible I may need to set...

Yes that is possibly an easier option but longer in time to gain access. However for the diy'er that is probably the best all round way.Anyhow job done thanks for the feedback.

You have what is called a purity error on the crt. This is caused in one of two ways a: there has been a large magnetic influence near the tv which has temporarily magnetized the tube or b: there is a fault in the degauss circuit inside the tv. There is a third possibility and that is...

As an ex tv engineer I must tell you to tackle a camcorder repair is not recommended because of the complexity and size of mechanics of the deck it is really a job for the experts.

What did it blow, fuse in plug mcb or rcd and after replacing what is the current state of the machine does it reblow fuses etc or is the machine just lifeless with no lights.

And thankyou for the feedback

In that case I concur the odds on favourite is the brushes.

Before buying brushes check to see if this model has a small pcb in a plastic cradle down the inside of the right hand side front of the machine and post back.

whilst a maintenance wash will help the situation depending on how bad it is there may well be no alternative but to replace the door seal. Ultimately the only real cure is a replacement door seal on the washing machine and regular maintenance washes thereafter. But try cleaning the...

Ah well alls well that ends well thanks for the reply.

There seems to be a little confusion here.You have tagged on to an early post which I replied for fitting a retaining ring to a whirlpool machine.see this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgNP9ScdgDo It is now apparent from your last post your machine is quite different.

Yes thats about right. The spring will stretch if left to very last to seat into seal gutter hold in position the left hand side of spring then lever and stretch right hand side with small blade screwdriver.
