    Vaillant Ecotec plus 831

    i don't want to get into pantomime over this even though it is that time of year, oh no it isn't, oh yes it is scenario. when an engineer visited last, 2-3 yrs ago, I hovered over his shoulder, asked lots of annoying questions(not really to either of our benefit, at least not at the time)...

    Vaillant Ecotec plus 831

    I dont intend on doing any safety checks, thats the job for the professionals as is changing the divertor. the cover is still firmly attached. but wait! i know whats coming next - how do you know the old divertor type is fitted if you havent removed the front cover?:D

    Vaillant Ecotec plus 831

    can the wiring adapter be bought separately as I noticed that the plastic body type can be bought somewhat cheaper ;)but not supplied with the wiring adapter. you guessed it! still have the pre- 2012 divertor fitted which I believe can not be serviced. why do the brass type have a blanking off...

    Condensing Dryer (drum not spinning) - Repair or buy new?

    please do also check the drum for excessive play as it will be worth checking and also doing at the same time. a rear bearing part will only cost around £5 if caught early enough as it will only be the pear drop that needs replacing, they are mostly made from brass and do wear quickly and...

    Condensing Dryer (drum not spinning) - Repair or buy new?

    the part is not expensive, varies between £7 - 20 roughly depending where you get it from and if its an oem genuine part or an aftermarket alternative replacement part. might be worth getting the old one off first and check it looks identical to the one you buy. suppliers can sometimes list the...

    sorry missed that bit, the wheel has snapped. if thats the case just change the jockey wheel assembly but removing the left side panel will not help with access.

    Condensing Dryer (drum not spinning) - Repair or buy new?

    does the black wheel feel loose on the pin? obviously it should spin freely and have some play sliding back and forth along the pin but not have any movement up/down if you know what I mean. there should be two bolts holding the jockey wheel bracket onto the motor housing, the rear can...

    Leaks from the boiler (ecotec plus 831 - Vaillant)

    you need to locate the source of the leak. is the white pipe tray wet (cover underneath the boiler covering the pipes)? or show signs of having been wet. the leak could be coming from higher up, just so happens it collects on the floor below pipe no.1. where is your boiler located? in a cold...

    Bosch dishwasher heating problem

    could it possibly be to do with the dirty water sensor? though if your model has a heat pump fitted I suspect thats the most likely culprit. model no. should end with '/' and 2 digits

    Condensing Dryer (drum not spinning) - Repair or buy new?

    unplug from mains, remove the top and see if the belt is on tight or loose. this will eliminate a few faults. we can then diagnose further. alternatively spin the drum by hand ( open the door and turn the drum by hand), does it spin easily or is there resistance but does turn relatively easy...

    could be worn rear drum bearing or drum pads causing the drum to rub on the drum seal as it turns.

    Indesit IDL 40 dishwasher problem

    before scrapping it, if thats your intention, it would be interesting to see a photo of both sides of the control panel board. might be something obvious. it might be a bit late for this machine now as you have already committed to a new machine but could help others if a fault can easily be...
