    Any ideas - Bosch cycle never ends?

    My Bosch "Exclusiv" dishwasher seems to stop 3/4 of the way through the cycle and then sit there indefinitely, with the "time to go" display static. The contents are nearly clean (just a bit of residue left), and there's no water left inside the d/w, but there's been no drying. Any...

    Ceiling Rose Disaster - Please Help

    I have a similar problem but I'm further down the road to disaster, so any advice would be gratefully received. I'm replacing a ceiling rose, which had three cables into it, each with red cable, black cable and the earth. My new fitting has only terminals for live, neutral and earth and so...
