Many thanks. There is already an earth connected to the bolt as you describe so I will just add the one that was on the centre terminal to that. Just waiting for the part to be delivered.

The element in my Zanussi oven has bust and I am trying to source a new one. The oven is old and there are no model numbers that I can find. Looking on various spares websites I can find a near match to the one above...

Many thanks for your replies. I thought that was the case but wanted confirmation. Thanks again.

Can anyone please confirm that this tap connector is suitable for connection to standard Speedfit pipe? http://www.screwfix.com/p/jg-speedfit-pkmbtc1514p-bent-tap-connectors-15x1-2/12129 The blurb on the website states that it can 'Push straight onto copper tube'. Does that mean "only"...

Thanks for that, I have gone for it and after some trouble now have flexible conduit through the ceiling and into the garage. No external walls for that option..

Hi, I am mid build of an upstairs bathroom in our big old French farmhouse and to avoid drilling a hole in the corrugated cement board roof for the extractor fan outlet, I am considering running the conduit, sloping downwards into our very large and drafty attached garage (size 160m3). This is...

Hi, I am fitting a second-hand wood burner into the large fireplace in France pictured below. Before I do this, I want to sort out the back wall which currently is very black with several holes and missing mortar. I intend to clean and repair the stone with Lime Mortar pointing like I have done...

Hi, the Vedette dishwasher in our French place has just gone bang and I wonder if anyone can identitfy the broken part in the picture below please: It's quite old but only had about 6 months use. I have tried Googling, but to no avail.. Thanks Oscar

Hi, one of my three hanging lights has stopped working and I have established that the light is ok but the transformer appears to be duff. The lights are out of stock so I can't replace the whole thing but as the transformer element of it is situated in the loft out of sight, I think that I...

Richard, thanks for your reply. The final gap is 13mm and my local tiling place recommended the grout below for upto 20mm applications. http://www.bal-adhesives.co.uk/products/micromax The shower is not tanked but I did seal with PVA prior to retiling the bottom row. If this is still a...

Hi, I am trying to fix an old problem where shower tiles have not been properly sat on top of the shower base. I am going to be left with a gap above the bottom row of about 15mm which I plan to just fill with grout like the other joints. Putting aside the look of it (which I can live with...

Hi, the model number is SGS53C02GB/08 and FD 8405 I made a mistake in the original post - It is the 'ON' light that is flashing about once every 3/4 of a second. When the door is open this light flashes when any of the programmes are selected (normal I assume?). When the door is shut, I get...

I have a Bosch Classixx Dishwasher and it only works on Quick Wash or Pre Rinse. If I select any of the other wash programmes (Normal, Intensive etc.) then the 'Active' light just flashes and the machine won't start. Seems to be working fine but only on Quick Wash. Any ideas please...

The other window is behind the sink and I was worried about the wet getting in there.

Hi, after fitting new work tops, I need to raise the level of the window sills to allow fitting of one those matching low spash backs (long story :roll: ). I am thinking of putting a shuttering across the front of the sill and raising the level with concrete / screed. I only have about 2...

Possibly but I am much more concerned with getting the problem sorted.

Thanks for the comments so far. I have spoken to the company again and after a lot of delays they promise to talk to the engineer who did the service tomorrow. Hopefully he will be back to check it out. Whipped the cover off tonight and took some photos. Any use? Ps: I know...
