I found the parts I neded would take 2 weeks to arrive. So I ordered a new FF instead at C****S / PC W**** and it was delivered within 24 hours.

My fridge section is not cooling but the freezer section is powering away. The compressor and all fans are working. All pipes and drainage channels are clean. The digital display shows the the fridge temperature is +4c compared to the +4c I've set it for. But the appliance's measurement of...

Thank you - sorry to be thick but if I use Black Jack can I put up thermal-plaster board using battens on teh brickwork without rendering or plastering a skim coat ?

Thank you

No you must render it.

Sorry to add to this historic thread but I posted this in "Plastering & Rendering" and I got no reply. --------------------------------- I have a small bedroom with 3 external walls and I want to improve thermal efficiency without making the room much smaller than it is now. I have hacked...

I have conflicting needs: I have a small bedroom with a relatively large-ish cold outside wall and I want to improve its thermal efficiency without making the room much smaller than it is now. I have hacked off the old plaster on the wall so I have bare brickwork there. I understand that...

Yep, ordered, it is an Lunns ref 19820- Ideal D Pattern Chrome Cistern Lever 1 £27.28 £27.28 Cheers

Thanks, fantastic - what a huge range. I am sure I will find one that fits.

My toilet flush "handle" just snapped in two. It is a cheap, cast metal handle that opeates as a fulcrum from the side of the cistern. To operate it, one typically pushes down with the palm of the hand. I cannot see a manufacturer's name so I reckon it is a generic cistern from one of the DIY...

I am sure folks here are much more experienced than me but I once had a problem with a ball cock valve on my cistern. A piston was supposed to move smoothly along a cylinder and block or unblock the hole where water was coming in. However due toi a build up of detrius, the piston got stuck...

Ah ! most helpful.

These were used to reduce expansion/contraction noise when a metal radiator hangs on metal brackets. Does anyone know if they are still available and where can I get them please (er any colour will be fine).

Could you maybe put vaseline inside the mechanism (if you can get to it, that is) and see if that makes any difference ? At least it may help eliminate one possible cause ?

The diagram did show the drain hole which was blocked. There was ice, not visible, UNDERNEATH the drip collection tray and its hole (as arrowed). This space was about 0.5mm but the hole was also frozen. I poured half an egg cup of warm water on the hole, then using a thing plastic tube...

Is the freezer drain hole shown by the arrow on the attached picture please: If so, it seems so blocked that I may need to use a drill. A wire coat hanger will not push through. Thank you Here is the picture (I have tried 3 methods to attach picture) -->...

I replaced the programmer / timer at £83 from espares but that did not fix it. Then I checked all wiring for continuity and found the PCB, also known as the fan control board, was visibly fried. I replaced this PCB/FCB, at £80 from Indesit (who now sell spares for older New World cookers) and...

A flashing digital timer display followed by an electrical crackling noise for 20 seconds then a gradual but complete loss of electrics (like the twilight zone) necssary to ignite the New World 21527 oven, left me puzzled. However, following several tips from this site, I followed the...

Hello, I have a New World Creations De Luxe Built In Oven dating from 1992 ref 11 641 43, CKG 21527. The grill works 100% OK (gas, on light and ignition). However, the clock/programmer and oven ignition are suddenly all dead. I hear a clicking noise from inside the clock /programmer so...
