Just decided to have another try on this one, One thing I did not mention before is there is a Switchmaster manual midi valve in the airing cupboard. Does this effect the way we fit the thermostat. Regards TV man[/img]

Found the trouble was the circular magnet ,on the end of the shaft part of the taco, had broken in half. Super glued it back onto the shaft. The machine is. now working normally. :)

Hi ,Checked the motor and have continuity on the taco. Put it on a normal wash program, it fills with water then it gives a short fast burst on the motor then again after a minute or so later. Suspect the main board?

Thanks Rocks1, I appreciate your help. Regards John

Any help out there.

Hi, This is my daughters , It stopped after filling with water.After I emptied it I checked the pump is not clogged. When I put it in the spin mode the pump works ok but the drum spins for a couple of seconds then stops for about a minute then kicks in for a couple seconds and it just repeats...

I checked the brushes all ok. When its switched on the control motor whirs for a couple of seconds then stops and the door does not lock .while I was working on it , on two occasions it started working and every thing worked ok until the next time then it stopped again.

Thanks for your reply, this machine has only been used for 4 months since it was purchased. It stood in the garage for 18 months before it was used. I will check the brushes. Regards TVman

Hi , my daughters washing machine has packed up. I have had a quick look, When its switched on the selector motor whirs and there are a few clicks then it sits looking at you doing nothing. The whiring noise is shorter when the door is closed so I assume the door lock is working.The filters are...

HI , OUR WASHING MACHINE GOES THROUGH ALL THE CYCLES BUT WHEN IT GETS TO THE spin IT JUST TURNS THE DRUM AS IF ITS EMPTYING BUT DOES NOT GO INTO THE SPIN MODE. I HAVE CHECKED THE OBVIOUS THINGS AND THERE IS NO ERROR CODE MESSAGE. THE DOOR RELEASES AS IT SHOULD WHEN IT GETS TO THE END OF THE...

No takers on this one. Regards TV Man

Hi, Do I just tap into the time switch, Put the thermostat in series with the timer. Is it a mains switch or a volt free switch. TVman

The boler has an external time switch fitted , its a Randall 103 . The boiler in an Ideal Classic FF330.

Hi, Can we fit a salus RT300RF thermostat to this boiler . It has a timer fitted but not an external thermostat. Any help and advise would be appreciated. I am a TV engineer by trade but need some help in sorting the wiring connections on this. Many thanks, Regards TVman.

Thanks Bahco but that would be a very big job.Too big for me.

Hi, I have a leak on the feed pipe to one of my radiators, It is not a major problem but I have a combi boiler and it loses pressure every couple of weeks. The main problem is that its a small bore pipe and the leak is very near the floor which is concrete, Is there any thing I can use to seal...

Thanks for your input, I have ordered an 18 litre external unit. I assume I dont have to do anything to the boiler after fitting it, Regards TV man.

Hi, The pressure on this boiler keeps going down, I have had 3 plumbers look at it and they all say it needs a new expansion chamber, but none of them seem to want to do the job, I have had several excuses but it still needs doing. It was suggested by one of them that it needs an external one...

I think I will try the Fernox Superconcentrate leak sealer , its worth a try before trying to expose the leak. Regards TV man.

Thank you all for your input, I thought about leak sealer but as its small bore piping I am a bit wary, any thoughts on that , Regards TV man
