I agree with johnd you will cure the problem with audio settings on your dvd player . It will be set to 5.1 at the moment which enables your surround sound speakers, but if you are connecting to the tv via the scart this only carries stereo to the tv. therefore you need to set your audio output...

You have a blockage or partial blockage from the trap to outside drain. Try a good quality sink plunger to start with.The other spigot(sticky out thing) should not be opened. This has nothing to do with drainage configuration but is a second drainage inlet for if you were to connect a dishwasher.

No the button is part of the complete assembly and the button alone is not the problem

It is the plastic latching mechanism behind the button. The whole assembly comes complete with button can be fiddley to fit as a diy job for the first time

coincidently I have been to b&q today as I possibly may need the same in the near future so the answer to your second part of your question is yes two spigot traps are available at b&q just under £8

Providing you have checked the manual for child lock or anti theft lock function then unfortunatly it sounds like you have a fairly serious component(s) break down as all modern tv recievers power supplies completely shut down if a fault ie short circuit is sensed in the equipment

well done and thanks for the feedback

In that case brushes should be changed anyway

Check the motor plug first for loose or burned connection it is easily opened by two small barbs each end of plug and visually inspected I have had this fault on more than one occasion as the connections pass quite a hefty current and are subject to quite a bit of vibration

Unfortunately a contuity test is not what a white goods tech would normally do as it is much easier to get a replacement motor from the van and simply piggyback the new motor to test.However if it is a top mounted motor you could try new brushes and if that does not cure they will not be wasted...

If the machine fills with water ok and the problem is just that the motor not turning, then you can forget the door interlock, it is ok

If it fills drum turns and then stopos with no more progress then it is possibly the heater faulty

It is fairly common for these to break so I would imagineyou would pick one up immediatly at any decent size white goods appliance spares shop

they do not screw in underneath. The one that has detached is because the clips have sheared on the underside and you will need a replacement. You must take the model and serial number along with you to the spares supplier as there is some difference on different models.

scOps The first thing to do is to measure continuity in the old element to see if it was open circuit.Depending on the result of this test would determine what steps to take next.

The element is at the bottom front of the tub follow scOps advice to remove front but do not disconnect the latch mechanism you can leave it connected there is enough room to swing the door to the right of the machine. you must then test for continuity through the element with a test meter as...

Yes that is the base of the heater. To check the heater there are three connections Live neutral and earth. If it is faulty it will be open circuit, to check you will need a multimeter set on ohms range and the leads on live and neutral off the element if heater is ok, the meter will display a...

Yes its is situated at the front of the tub at the bottom accessible with the front removed

To check the pump with no external filter.Disconnect door seal, unscrew self tappers at bottom of front panel, pull down and away from machine.You can now disconnect the pump and hoses for inspection.To check for poor emptying if you run the machine empty take the programmer to rinse mode wait...

One more component to check that is the heater.Disconnect spades or plug to eliminate.It is possible in transit unless the machine has been kept upright all of the move that the residual water at the bottom of the tub may have found its way up to the electrics at the top of the machine.
