Excellent. Thanks so much. If you have patience for one more question- How does the detergent in gel form, get over the dam? I assume it is partially flushed and diluted with water, but quite a bit must still be trapped by the dam. The alternative, as per the instructions on the container, is...

Apologies, blind as a bat! . It is a WD62

Is 1200 sufficient? If not, can you say where more details are shown? Thanks.

There are 3 separate places to put powder or liquid detergent. Also the right hand place has an option, by rotating a gate, of either a vertical wall or a wall with two holes in it. Please can someone tell me where liquid detergent goes. Many thanks.

When my Hotpoint Aquarius 1200 empties water before the spin cycle the water comes up into the kitchen sink. When the pump stops the water drains away as with normal sink water. This is a new problem. My guess is that the drain pipe from sink to grid, about 3 metres in length, is partially...

My portable fridge can run off a 12v battery and I need to attach it to the cigarette lighter on the car. My problem is that I have a suitable plug to attach to the fridge but There is no indication on the socket about + and-. If I connect it the wrong way round will it damage the fridge? If...

Thanks Rocks, If you are still there, and not gone down to the beach! As I have to do lots of moving things to disconnect the pipes before I start, is it easy to take the top off? Thanks

I'm BLINKIN' USELESS. I'm trying to remove the lh side panel. 2 screws at front but something else is stopping it coming off. Not sure what will still be holding it? You guys must do this every day.

I have a Bosch dishwasher. (ENR No: SGS4012 GB/14). It is about 8 years old and appears to be working perfectly. However I can hear the inlet valve switching on and off about 16 times at the start of each fill. That's 50 times every wash. I suspect this is a fault but the answer from Bosch is...

I have a bed-side FM Sony Radio. I use it to listen mostly to BBC Radio 4 and Radio 2. It can have perfect reception or total interference when it is moved even a few inches. It is 10 ft from the window. It has a 2 ft. dangly wire aerial and it's driving me bonkers. I can move the power...

Calm down Conny. I appreciate you come from Liverpool, but there was no need for that. I asked a question and got an answer. Thanks everybody else. My next project is to make some fireworks. The electriclty has gone off and I'm trying to do it by candle light. I've only got one eye these...

Because maybe, just maybe, they are the same and they can sell two rather than one. So can you say what will happen if i try it? Either nothing, or ruin the charger? Thanks for your comments. Norsey

I often read that there are special chargers that will recharge ordinary AA batteries " up to 10 times". Is it feasible to stick non-rechargeable AA alkaline batteries in a normal charger to get more out of them, or does this damage the charger? Norsey

I've got bog-standard Sky. The thing is, I am a BT broadband user and have their BT Vision box on my TV. Free useage and probably does all that Sky + does (stop whilst out of the room, go back, record 2 programmes at once, 80 hours of recordings etc.). I've only still got Sky to watch their...

I'm getting poor quality picture and sound on several programmes including BBC1 and ITV. Quality is excelent on all the other channels. Sky say I need a £60 engineer visit to check the dish and it's LNB (the bit sticking out of the dish). My signal strength is 90% and signal quality about...

Thanks to you all. I am thinking of trying Steve's solution. However my 30 year old sons are not prepared to wear their old nappies and romp around in the sand pit. My wife has tried on here bikini but it somehow didn't have the magic of the 1970's and so I have decided to ditch the project...

The time has come to face the daunting task of putting about 20 full VHS tapes of home videos on to dvds. I have a VHS player and need to buy an appropriate DVD recorder. Can this task be done easily? Can I do it just using the TV and not my computer? I'm not planning any editing. Any advice...

Thanks for that. Unfortunately I have never seen the inside of a dishwasher. At the moment all I think I know is that the pressure chamber is a plastic bottle and can be seen if I take off the panel on the left hand side. If this is correct, is it easy to clean out any debris and the same for...

Hi, Do we have any dishwasher experts today? My Bosch dishwasher is about 6 years old. When water is entering, at several points during the cycle, the inlet valve doesn't just open once, it opens about 9 or 10 times. Is this a fault. It can be heard opening and closing sometimes once a...

I've got a 6 year old Bosch dishwasher. It switches on every night by timer whilst I get my beauty-sleep. Recently I have been awakened every night, part way through the 1 hour cycle by a banging noise which I hear from my bedroom. It seems to go on for about 30 or 40 seconds at 2 second...
