Thanks Rob, I'll leave it for now and perhaps mention the slow filling at the next service then.

I have an Ideal Vogue Max Combi 40 boiler. I have taken an upstairs radiator off for decorating and have refitted. Turned the water back on to the radiator and opened the bleed valve. After few minutes I had to repressurise the boiler so I opened to 2 taps and could hear the water filling albeit...

Oh right. I didn't notice any. But I'll keep an eye out next time it happens, thanks.

Annoyingly since you posted I have managed to do two loads of drying with no further instances of it not starting. My fault was strikingly similar to yours though so I took off the side panel and located the capacitor which is exactly where you said. It's an 8.5uF capacitor +/- 5% but when I...

No Errors codes I'm afraid it doesn't have a digital panel

That’s interesting, when mine stopped after the 10 minute period I gave the drum a little push and it started up for a while like it was really trying to start up again but couldn’t quite make it. I’ve just tested it and of course it’s started up again no problem for the last 20 minutes. I’ll...

Actually when I changed the socket thats when it started spinning for 10 minutes or so then stopped. Fuse is fine.

Hi, I have an indesit condenser dryer. I noticed last night that when I press the button to switch on the machine makes the usual noise like there's power but the drum doesn't spin, or spins for a while then stops. I tried again this morning and there was a little smoke and burning smell that...

Hi, since I moved into my house I have had a blackbox in the centre of a wall with a cover plate on which looks awful. I have removed the cover and tested the cable and it seems to be dead. I can't find a switch anywhere that might supply it so I'm assuming that it's been disconnected at the...

Yes I was actually joking but my laughing emoji disappeared!

Yes I noticed the earth when I took it off, it’s secure now

Lol, surprisingly enough it works now! Thanks!

How do I delete this before anyone else sees it? Thanks very much!

Hi, I have replaced the isolation switch for a dishwasher. Now whether the switch is on or off there is always power. I have wired up the same way the one I removed of the first picture, replacement second. Can I assume the switch is faulty or have I done something stupid?

Thanks John you've been very helpful

Ok so since you mentioned that when I pull the starter cord the first pull always feels like it should. The second pull probably 50% of the time comes straight out like it's not connected to anything. I have to wait a minute before I feel like I'm pulling something again.

Thanks John, much appreciated

This one doesn't have a primer bulb. I tried the way you suggested but still no luck. I just saw that there is a slow fuel leak from somewhere so I suppose that might have something to do with it.

Hi, I’m a novice at engines so trying to work my way around a small one. I bought a Tanaka TBC-2000 brushcutter that was advertised as not working. The guy I bought it from said it was working perfectly but fell over in the shed and wouldn’t start since. I went over to get it and he demonstrated...

Hi, I moved into a new house fairly recently that is fitted with a wireless Novar ED&S alarm. It has 2 PIR's, control panel and bell box. The previous tenant left s 2 key fobs but no code and I want to remove it and fit a new system. I removed the 2 PIRs which set the alarm off so I know the...
