Is undoubtably the worst organisation we have to deal with. A private company run by the HSE(IMO). Ripping us all off. A private householder can do whatever he likes to his own gas system, after the meter and is untouchable for the work, competent or not. If it never rebounds on him/her then...

The most common form of white film is due to limescale and is attributable to the water hardness. Lime scale film can be removed by adding a small quantity of citric acid (40grams) to the dispensor and doing a wash cycle. Silica film is impossible to remove. Where detergents with a high...

Sorry, I will explain more. You should not try to convert the appliance, rather the incoming water supply. The "y" piece adapter fits to the cold supply, with HOT and COLD inlet hoses connecting to the "y". Your house hot supply becomes redundant. Therefore you can not fix your problem...

Your Indesit is aborting the programme. Read your instruction book and carry out the reset proceedure for the electronics. If that does not cure it, there's little you can do. The fault could lie with any of the components within the appliance, that means having an engineer take a look. AF

From most DIY outlets you can buy a "y" piece adapter which accepts both hot and cold pipes, once connected to the cold supply. You still use both valves, just cold water. AF

If your using the same selector knob to initiate the ignition, its there where the problem lies. Find it hard to believe Stoves won't respond under guarantee, if so, go to trading standards and complain. AF

The make of appliance would help!!! However the timer spinning continuously is an abort code on some, such as an indesit. Switch off check the obvious, water, door locks, pump etc etc....try telling us the make and model. AF

It seems from your info that the cold water solenoid valve has failed, so no point trying to make it a cold fill. probably a new valve required. Engineer time. AF

Usually all leaks are from the "Lid Sealing on either draw", the anti flood in the base therefore activates. This can be caused by poor loading ,ie using plates/ dishes that are very slightly too tall for the drawer and obstruct the lid from sealing, easily done as the lid seals once you have...

I have a Bosch entering its 12th year which cost £450.00 all those years ago. I have replaced the pump (noisy) door seal(worn out) last year. So I guess the saying you get what you pay for is relevant to my experience. AF

Instead of swapping the solenoids look at the wiring, on either one one side will be ganged together the other is the supply or nuetral. POWER OFF. Switch the two wires over and retry. If water problem is resolved then new valve required. AF

Your element is either a three wire or four wire hotplate. Therefore if the wires are colour coded look at one of the other 3 elements and you will see the correct combination of placement of the colours. AF

Re think the design of your outlets, every appliance Manufacturer recommends a seperate upstand for the waste outlet, trying to waste out into a sink is in conflict with your installation instructions. AF

This is the electronics aborting programme for an internal fault. It is possible to interrogate the PCB to find the last recorded fault, aiding the engineer to repair. This is at the stage where you need an engineer (who has experience of the brand), it could be a simple fault, repairable...

These are rubbish at best, cheap and nasty at worst, IMO. There is a removeable eeprom on the board and this is the usual trouble when no drum action, however low brushes causing carbonisation on the armature, leading too shorting quite often blows the unit. Do yourself a favour, ditch it...

Hi, washing machines smell because of bacteria, which grows on the residue of the combination of left overs from detergent/comfort/dirt. Try doing a monthly maintenance wash without clothing but correctly dosed with powder, read the box, carefully, and follow the instructions regarding...
