Thanks for replying. With the selectors in off position the light is on and Yes I am getting 240v across the terminals. I noticed that when I disconnected the blue wire to the top heating element the light goes out. This blue wire is coupled with the white wire leading to the neon...

Sorry for the delay in replying. I bought the neon indicator from Maplins yesterday and fitted it today. Unfortunately I still have the same problem. I've added a photo to show the inside of the oven. So here's what I did. I followed one wire from the neon indicator back to the Mode...

Many Thanks Burnerman, Thanks again for replying. I know that neon indicators act weird after many years as I also have a Vailiant sine 18 boiler which also flickers. So, I was going to replace the neon indicator as a first step but was unsure if I was overlooking something?? Should I...

I have a old(ish) Moffat oven. It's very basic in that it has just the Selector knob Timer and Temp knob. The oven is seldom used, the last time was probably 4 years ago. When I came home today the single and only neon on/off light was flickering even though the oven was off. I turned the...

Thanks Bunerman, just really glad to get this done. If by grey funnel line you mean insulation then yeah, I'm in!!!!! That stuff takes seconds to fit during installation and costs under a tenner. Why leave it out???? with all the hassel of a potential burst pipe it makes no sense to me...

Hello everyone and sorry for the delay in updating you. What a pain this has been. I was lucky though to find a 12mm laminated chipboard which I cut out and shaped to a close fit as possible in the hole. That took ages to get right. A friend also donated a Trevi blend shower valve which...

Ah ha...I know exactly the part your talking about. Now that's a brilliant idea. I'll try google and see if I can come up with a supplier or maybe a shopfitter may have some idea. Nice one jobandknock, I really appreciate you taking the time to think about my problem and come up with possible...

Thanks...Jobandknock. Got me all excited there for a moment. Unfortunately 40mm will be too small. I'm in the market for 80mm and above but the thinking is bang on!! Cheers mate

Hmmm. One thought I was playing with was the possibility of inserting a 10mm shaped disc back into the hole and glued into position. Then cutting a square section of plastic only and slightly larger than the hole from the rear of the Kubex ( against wall/not visible ) and applying it on the...

Your absolutely right!!. My Aqualisa valve lasted for around 20 years before it started leaking. Shame about the plastic body though. I guess with all the trouble I've had to get this far I just feel I would rather have the complete valve and flexi shower hose in the shower. Pulling the...

I was trying to repair my Aqualisa shower valve but the rusted screws in the body proved too hard to remove and as such I damaged the body. The valve was attached to the wall and passed through the Kubex shower cubicle. Not sure why they didn't use a exposed shower valve in the first place. I...

Hi, I had a problem with the underground drainage in my kitchen which I have now fixed. I needed to dig through the kitchen floor tiles and then through 4 inches of concrete and cut through the blue dpm. Then another 4 inches of soil until I reached the leaking pipe. I have excavated a small...

Sorry, The stat is on 4 ( 1-5 + Max ) I think its working o.k seems to cycle the boiler. Although, now you mention it I generally have it on 5 or max to get the rads really hot. The valve seems o.k too. Had a new top half installed last year. The pipe leading off towards the rads don't get...
