    Hi all, been trying to read previous posts. I have a 3x3 patio that's on a slight slope and will be building a corner summerhouse on it next week hopefully. To keep the bearers level is it ok to use plastic shims? Should I also use a DPC roll on top of the bearers between them and the...

    Hotpoint HIC 3B+26 Dishwasher won't switch on.

    Replaced the component above and the voltages are back up at 12v but it got very hot. Checked other components that this goes to and goes to main plc and other parts so ordered a new switch module. Fingers crossed.

    Hotpoint HIC 3B+26 Dishwasher won't switch on.

    No water leaking etc, I have found this component on the switch board that is a voltage regulator. Input and output pins only 1.6 ohms so doesn't seem correct. I will order and replace and see how it goes, could be killing the 12v going up to the board, as some of the pins beep to this component.

    Hotpoint HIC 3B+26 Dishwasher won't switch on.

    Checked the mains supply and I have 230v AC with the plug removed from the control board but when connected the mains drops to 36vac I have checked the board for component damage but nothing obvious. Just found splayed pins so sorted that and now mains stays high. If the main door latch is made...

    Hotpoint HIC 3B+26 Dishwasher won't switch on.

    I have a Hotpoint HIC 3B+26 integrated dishwasher which popped the RCD, so I switch off the switch and reset the RCD and then when I switched it on again it just popped straight away. I removed the dishwasher and opened and checked for blown components or any damage on the main supply lines. I...

    Wallpaper paste, "paste the wall" on normal paper?

    I think paste the wall is actually harder and more of a pain. When you past the paper the bottom half is folded out the way until it's needed when as when paste the wall the paper is in the way. I will give it a try I'm confident it will still work. Thanks.

    Wallpaper paste, "paste the wall" on normal paper?

    No it just says to paste the paper and leave for 5-8 mins to soak. I didnt know if paste the wall paste was different and not soak into the paper the same but to be honest looks the same in the bucket as normal paste.

    Rain repellant before fitting camera?

    Before I fit my last few camera is it a good idea to apply rain repellant to the lens before fitting? They will be fitted under a soffit so hopefully won't be too bad but was just a thought before fitting. I wasn't sure if this could effect the image with a coating. The camera is not a dome...

    Hikvision Poc CCTV audio

    Thanks, I will just disable the audio in the menu then if it's not doing anything. It's weird it sounds like there is noise being picked up like the background static you get from a microphone but no sound if I speak, you would think if no audio there would be nothing at all.

    Running coax cabling beside mains cable

    What I will do is just use the holes drilled from loft to cupboard and cupboard floor into the garage and I will separate it in the loft and in the garage so only real point of close contact will be in the holes. How far apart do the cables really need to be?

    I have just replaced my bath with a P-shaped bath to fit a shower as well. The screen that came with the bath is fitted and I just want to check the correct way of dealing as there is a small gap below the hinge. The grey circular area. Instructing say to seal in out side but stop before this...
