Washing machine thermistor error - worth fixing?

[DaveH]

This. And can vouch for espares.

We've changed the stats in Tumble dryers a number of times and its really not techy. BUT, we always knew we had pushed our luck with continuous running or there was a blockage in the vent pipe etc. With the washing machine you need to ask why did it blow/fail? Did you do something unusual with it. Like any 'fuse' going it tends to be for a reason.

I can change parts in my oven like a pit crew now. Slide it out of the unit, casing off, pop out an element or fan, new one in, case on, back in the unit, done.

The motherboard and the main chassis are the only original bits. Thermostats have all been changed once, elements a few times and the fans once. Each time I think is this time to get a new one, then I see a part for £30 and it leeps going for another year.

Don't most machines work like new unless they're fucked?

Nope. Depends how well looked after it is, especially in hard water areas. They start to smell like fuck if you don’t clean them properly.

How much was the Bosch? I've heard they're not what they used to be.

Can’t remember mate but probably £100 more than the usual suspects - bloody good kit so far , takes a real battering.

they feel bombproof.. i think it did 6 washes yesterday..

Do you have any issues with small items (mainly socks) getting stuck in the door seal?

This morning we had a leak from our Samsung washing machine when a sock got stuck. It seems to be quite common.

Socks getting stuck in rubber seal

Hi, I have a Samsung WW90J5456 washing machine. Since we have purchased the washing machine socks keep getting stuck in the rubber seal. We have ignored it until now as a few days ago we found a sock trapped in the filter and found pieces of the sock in the drum after the cycle had finished. Is...

Only once about a fortnight ago as it happens...

Just make sure you load it properly and sling it all in fully.

Thanks, it was deffo overloaded today but only I seem to understand the concept that towels and sheets get heavier when they’re wet.
