Slow fill usually means the fill valve diaphragm has a hole and needs replaced... Turn off water first! Ask in Wickes for the correct part / item and/or see if you have the paper manuals anywhere? https://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Trenton-Easy-Clean-Close-Coupled-Toilet/p/288475 Sheet 2 would...

Earth leakages from L and/or N to earth will be cumulative... Mineral insulated heating elements may as they age start to leak to earth, seals fail they become hygroscopic and the elements move in the insulation with expansion / contraction. Other devices may/will have deliberate leaks to...

Isolate, open up, and see what is inside? It may have more useful makers names and model/part numbers that can be searched for. (Smart Heat as a search term is practically useless for this case). Pictures of the boxes by storage heaters and the meter install with 'black box' may also be...

We mostly seem to know what ones look like. We need to see you brothers' plug and socket. This is the 'plug' I meant: ISO 4165 and from German military WW2 vehicles originally...

Those sockets came in two 'internal' diameters --- hence the removable red plastic part on some of those shown in the link I provided. In the (unlikely) event the Volvo cigar lighter socket had such a narrower centre the adapter pictured would be unable to reach the centre conductor. (Was it...

Depends on how you plan to rectify the existing wiring. If you go Live, Switched Live and earth ... the a battery operated 2-wire would maybe suit? I've replaced some old Sunvic digital stats with the Honeywell/Resideo DT4...

Do it properly. Run ethernet cables and use switches plus wifi access points when needed for the truly mobile devices. WiFi and Powerlines will always be variable feasts. WiFi in particular is subject to local interference / congestion from other nearby dwellings. A quality Mesh network will...

There are / were two 12V socket standards if I remember correctly... one a smaller diameter than the other... https://www.roadking.co.uk/plugs-and-connectors.html has some examples. Pic of the cigarette lighter against a ruler may help? Along with one of the adapter that doesn't work in the...

Plastic dome head caps to fix over them? Typically black but you may find white. Silicone into place. Or wrap self-amalgamating 'rubber' tape round and round to have a softer lump. Or fashion something to cover the remains of the bolt using Milliput white epoxy putty... smooth off with a...

OK so the OP had best re-wire his boiler control system at both ends of that cable to have Line, switched Line and CPC. Reducing choice of thermostat. Or run a replacement 3-core+cpc between the two locations if a neutral is needed for the chosen wired thermostat. Or go wireless thermostat...

EEK!!! Currently it is wired Brown (Live) to T1 Blue (Neutral) to T2 Green/Yellow marked wire -> not the earth (cpc) terminal but -> T3 = Switched Live (call for heat to boiler) So that needs re-sleeving as brown (or red) to indicate it is a switched Live wire!! The world is your Oyster as...

I have swapped the microswitch on those heads (or BG branded equivalent) a few times for the late in-Laws. Often seems to be a sticky grease off the drive that clogs up the actuator of the switch so some cleanup / isopropyl on a cotton bud can sort temporarily. The Burgess microswitch is as...

Yes you can - but I'd choose a better brand like Bosch/Neff/Siemens myself. Buy cheap, buy twice. Edit Google AI suggests that Lamona dishwashers are not made by one single manufacturer; they are an own-label brand for Howdens Joinery, which sources appliances from various manufacturers like...

I read IMMersion 1 on LH RCD and IMMersion 2 or RH RCD So find the HW tank and post a pic of tank wiring / switches / any labelling. Immersion heaters often fail with a short between the heating filament and the earthed outer jacket. The faulty one will need replacing (that'll be fun, not)...

Over 8 months later and still not fixed this? The supplied part number (post #19) gasket clearly has embedded metal clips near the 4 corners in this web picture https://www.partscentre.co.uk/electrolux-oven-door-gasket-3871945105.html

Only tried my GT60 for recording... freesat and freeview tuners... Only allowed ONE to be used for recording at any time and then you couldn't access the other for live viewing (doh!). It did allow replay of a recording while making another recording via the tuner {which is more than any VHS...

Only currently made retail PVRs are: Freeview: Humax Aura, Manhattan T4R Freesat: freesat 4k recordable BT, now EE, Pro box is in theory rented (like $ky Q and Virgin cable boxes) and should be returned at end of a Contract; but they appear on the second user market. No need for a BT/EE...

No point attenuating without eliminating that Distribution Amplifier and having a direct connection as it is mainly to check for possible signal overload (again). On the other hand something so unpredictable and happening so infrequently may not be worth the effort of trying to trace it...

Back to first principles. Aerial direct to this new TV cable using a joiner. Still doing it : trying some attenuation in bit by bit process of elimination of stuff... 4dB, 6 dB, 10 dB. If nothing fixes it that way then it's electrical interference most probably. If it's random electrical...

Not sure that is true... $ky Q afaik uses its own 'mesh' type hidden wifi to connect the Q minis to the main box. Main box ideally wired, or Wifi or Powerline connected to modem-router. My mesh units allow device(s) to be connected via ethernet cable and then (hidden) wifi to other units and...
