Not sure what category to put this one under, this seemed the nearest? Have a failed motor on a kids ride on car and cannot find a replacement for love nor money, was hoping somebody could help? The car was purchased from Toys r us about 5 years ago and called something like dune buggy...

I have just purchased the above car, it has done 57k miles and seems to idle fine. My only concern is that it seems massively underpowered. I didn't notice it in the test drive as it was about town and I didn't get a chance to hoof it, but when I drove it home it quickly became apparent. It's...

My Bosch 6 year old dishwasher has stopped heating the water (I think). The displayed elapsed time goes down about ten minutes then stops there for ages, sometimes it does eventually complete the cycle but it takes a lot longer then the time remaining indicator states. I presume from this that...

I have a 42'' Plasma that no longer works, the screens are not physiaclly broken but there are some horizontal multicoloured lines through the display. Is this worth anything to anyone (ie is there a market for spares and reapirs) or should I just dump it? Thanks.

I have just re-fitted the bathroom which included a new layout and consequently new pipework. Everything is fine except for the pressure from the free standing mixer tap servicing the basin. It's something of a dribble. With the new layout the pipes going to the tap in question take the...

Can anybody tell me if there is a decent freeware tool that will allow me to print a list of all GPO settings (either configured or not) within AD? I am aware that you can export lists which provides a small report showing only the settings within that folder, but I want to see all settings...

I intend to instal a shower pump and have absolutely no way of siting it near the cylinder. The only feasible place for it to go will be under the Bath, however this is about a six metre pipe run back to the cylinder. I am aware that it is better to push rather then to pull, however it...

I have a broken manhole cover (chamber inspection cover) on my drive which needs replacing. I have been searching the internet for a replacement but to no avail. The one on my drive is approx 26'' x 20'' (655mm x 505mm). I'm trying my hardest to avoid having to rip out the whole frame and...

I've had an intermittent problem on a Peugeot 306 2.0 Hdi 1999 in that every now and then it wont start. Last time it went to garage for full diagnostics and when they come to work on it after the weekend it started fine? They found low battery warnings on ECU logs but nothing else (probably...

Can somebody please tell me where I can locate the indicator relay for a VW Golf 1998?

Hello all I have been trying to fix a problem with the heating in the above mentioned car. In my explorations I have found a burnt out green relay in the top of the internal fuse box (beneath drivers seat). It has kind of melted to the black plastic it plugs into. My questions are, 1)...

In the company I work for we do not allow users to access their C:\ as a security measure. The problem with this is it means they cannot access their Favorites. I am attempting to create a .reg file which moves the location of their Favorites to a shared location on a server. I have...

You know the way you see Oak Trees cut right back to just the trunk and all the major branches are all lopped, can I do the same with a Maple? I'm aware that Maples 'bleed' so am I right in thinking it should be done after new growth in or around mid summer? The Maples about 20 years old...

I'm experiencing problems with the heating/ventilation system on the above car. There appears to be no power to it? The a/c light is out and when you turn the blower dial or heat dial nothing happens? I've been through all the fuses and cannot find a blown one? Can anybody help? (Please...

I wish to install a ceiling light in a new cloakroom I'm fitting under the stairs. The problem is that the lighting circuit is quite far away. Am I able to run a spur off the ring main with a fused pull cord switch to a ceiling light? If so can I use any standard light fitting? Please...

On the front of my house I have a fairly large bay which houses some very nice georgian wooden framed single glazed windows. They are the originals and the glass is all a bit old and warped, but the frames are sound. I was wondering if it is possible to put double glazing into the existing...
