Massive cloud going across and we as only had a quick sprinkle.

‘Tis nice. Not that yukky Hobgoblin stuff though

Dun't fink it would be worth setting up a factory in merka. Cost v yesrs to get back the investment ain't worth it. Especially when other countries production lines slow down a bit.

Need to test it in anger. Pic's or it din't happen. Purrem on t'other fred in AG.

Sun is over the yardarm here, so 'cheers all' ...

Been there, twas the belt. A straight "snap". Ordered and he will replace it tomorrow. He now says that "gone Bang!" was just a figure of speech on his part and basically it just made a funny noise and ground to a halt. So we are all good. It...

Sorry to hear of the trials & tribulations. :( Where there's blame, there's a claim. I think the whiplash will cause untold aches & pains and is probably good for c. £12k.

Happy Easter to you too. Hope yer Easter eggs all melt 🤣🤣🤣

yeah, google the make and model of the dryer and search for replacing the cap vids, we did ours last year ... well, we did it twice cos I put it in back to front first time ...:p

So a Multimeter across it will tell me if it is kaput?

Nah, you misunderstand, the cap is a big bugger, only £8ish and is separate from the motor or control board

Might be the capacitor ...

Morning All. :D Another bright but chilly day here. :) Tomorrow, I am supposed to be going to my sisters for a lunch. Not really looking forward to travelling on an Easter Weekend. :( Off to my lad's this morning. Bumble-fryer has gone "Bang"...

Yup, that's the one. :D I wonder if its characteristics and name are because it looks great on the wedding day and then 2 weeks later after the honeymoon it reverts to being plain-jane.
