Is that the same question I posed at the very outset? Can I replace the wps hose with a plain hose? I am not sure what you are getting at by "the triple valves are closed anyway". Would a plain hose not prevent the machine from opening and closing the valves as required? Don't the wires...

If I open it up ,is the idea to look at the pressure tube?Where is it and how will I test it?

Thanks So I have checked those two extra hoses and I think they are clear. The first one allowed me to breathe/blow into into it but not to suck the air out . I assume that that is as it should be. The second one from the top of the drum to the side of the soap drawer was clear. So ,that...

Hi Richard it is hard for me to gauge the force of the water as it comes out onto the soap drawer. I would say it is not that strong but I have to say that the force is the same at all steps of the cycle . And so if the 3 valves are blocked then are all equally blocked. I did suspect that...

Do you mean can I hear it filling or can I peek in the soap container draw and see the water coming through ? Yes it does (each of the three times). I can't actually see inside the valves and I can't say if the flow of water into the soap containing drawer is what it should be but I can't see...

Thanks that is great link (yes I managed to get out of service mode very easily) http://inm0310.tripod.com/miele_f1.htm (it is the correct machine) but how do I see the Fault codes ? The LED screen does not illluminate . I turn the program selector switch to the "desired setting" and the...

Once I get into service mode ,do I need a mechanism to get out of it or does the machine do that itself automatically if I turn it off at the mains and turn it back on again? If the machine (as it does) fails (=the red light comes on) at every stage of the cycle where water is required does...

Hi there:) Yes I do feel a buzzing now that you ask (I never noticed before) What I generally do is to let it fill itself on its own at the start of the cycle.Invariably ,after 2 or 3 minutes the red light comes on and I have to manually add an amount of extra water from a jug for about a...

Can I replace this hose with a regular hose or will the machine not function properly unless it has the original Waterproof System hose installed? I do not need the flooding protection and I suspect it may be tripping the machine as I have to fill it manually every time because the red...

just reading that styrene is (like a lot of other products no doubt) carcinogenic.So maybe I will be a little less in a hurry to track it down in a dilutable form! https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en-GB&fromgroups#!topic/rec.audio.car/rnnA-6x9Ylo

thanks a lot .Where would I get strene (in a liquid form)? Would I be able to find it incorporated as a chemical into household (or other) products if it is hard to get on its own? [/b]

Anyone know how to make this up ? I make do with a mixture of fibreglass epoxy and acetone and am quite pleased with it but would be happier with something closer to the actual product - which is very volatile and penetrates rotten timber very well. But I often run out of it and...

Thanks for the Argos tipoff. Are any of those cordless drills comparable in performance to ones that run of the mains? The one I have is 9V and I see that 18V is common. Would there be jobs where a mains run drill would be required? (apart from battery life I mean) And what about...

thanks I am pretty sure it couldn't be that as the problem was there before I did that - and anyway that is a really nice gentle heat. I wonder could it be that the metal cylinder that rotates has got rusty and that has caused it to bind? I assumed it would be a high quality stainless...

it is a 9v rechargeable and was working fine until it fell in some water. It stopped but worked again after I dried it out . However it only worked sporadically and so I tried drying it out properly over the Aga overnight . I was surprised when it conked out after a second or so every time I...

I have an old oil fired boiler that runs a house with about 20 rooms. I would say that it is about a metre cubed. I have been advised that it is wasting me oil and I should have it changed to a newer one that would repay the investment in double quick time. However I have since been advised...
