Thanks for the reply, Austin. I don't think there's anything wrong with the solenoid as I regularly wash at 60c and the correct temperature is achieved. I did have the solenoid fail completely on the Jetsystem which unfortunately required the Crouzet timer to be changed (a job that requires a...

Thanks for the information! That one was made during the 21st week of 1988. Neither my FL1123 and Z9191T seem to make it up to 40 degrees on programme 'G' Non Fast Coloureds either, the temperature on the door glass feels more like 30 to me. Yet I'm sure similar machines I used years ago didn't...

Hello Zanussi89, welcome to the forum. Thanks for posting the pictures of your FL812, it's in great condition! Those grey fascia Zanussis are my favourite machines. Alongside the earlier Washcraft models they were very well built (therefore very heavy!) and extremely reliable. The FL812 has a...

I remember reading something similar about the bearings, Fido. There are no individual bearings for the 610G listed anywhere so I guess this is one of those models. Tom

Complete rear spider assembly is required for this machine. Available at the link below for a much more reasonable £30.60. Tom http://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/104504-washing-machine-drum-spider

You're very welcome. That model was introduced in 1976. I may be able to work out the date of manufacture from the serial number. Do let us know when you have completed the repairs! It's so satisfying to be able to repair such old machines. Tom

Finally, if you need any more parts in future, here is the link to the parts diagrams for your Lavamat 2000. Let me know if I can help any further! Tom http://procornerpdf.electrolux.com/static/Pictures/Views/U0P01/001.PDF

The second hose is a bit harder to source, however I have found an ebay seller in France who will post to the UK. Again, see the link below for details. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/645055510-durite-Filtre-pompe-lave-linge-AEG-/110751557388

That information is a great help. Thank you! I have identified your machine and the correct parts diagram. I have found both hoses. The soap dispenser to tub hose is easily available. Have a look at the link below for a supplier...

This is a very welcome development. I'd like mine to have bio-prewash and a rapid advance timer please! Tom

Thanks Dascot for your question, not at all stupid, as it seems there are variations. Justanotherhigh, I have just found a long list of variations of the Lavamat 2000 machine. Could you by any chance find the rating plate on the machine and provide the "E.nr.." from that plate? Some of the...

AEG's part diagrams from that period aren't the clearest, unfortunately. I will have a look through other models of a similar vintage to try and locate that hose. Even if I can identify the part needed, the chances of it being available are low, but not impossible. The soap dispenser to drum...

Hi, Welcome to the forum! Can you identify the parts you need from the diagram linked below? I'm struggling to identify the second hose from the diagram. Thanks Tom http://procornerpdf.electrolux.com/static/Pictures/Views/N1101/L08.PDF

"Told by Hotpoint" indeed, likely story...

I was thinking I was the only one who preferred the previous generation of machines. I'm not keen on the new look I'm afraid, the porthole door is just too big. Tom

I hope you manage to solve the problem. Tumble dryers aren't my strong point unfortunately. You could always ask at http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/ as they have engineers on there who can probably help. Tom

Hi, I'm not familiar with these models, but the symptoms suggest that it could be down to a worn rear drum bearing or a worn jockey pulley (maybe both). Maybe someone more knowledgeable will be able to help further. The parts diagram I've linked to below may be useful though if you need any...

Thanks for the information, Chris. I'd wondered for years about the reason for this, and now I know at last. Very interesting! Tom

I remember the washer only version of the Colston had a very odd final spin cycle, where it would continuously speed up, slow down, speed up etc. Never seen anything like it before or since.

Great machine. My grandparents used to have the washer only version of this machine until about 1992, unfortunately I can't remember the model number. I've only seen examples of the washer-dryer version since though, so I guess it was more common. Tom
