Keymatic 3243H Well then, amazing to see this at last, i can just about remember the day we collected it! dont remember it being so sorry looking, certainly a huge transformation. Nice to see another Key finally saved & restored again! Phil

having owned one not impressed i had the same model a while back, it was great to begin with but the more i used it the more i found irritations, if your going to go for a miele your better off with the standard washers, steer clear of the washer dryers, dare i say it, it was the worst machine...

worst ive owned i had a Miele WT2670, easily the worst ive ever had, the programming was awful, the rinsing was awful, clothes never came out clean, and the dryer took about as long to dry 2.5kg as a normal dryer took to dry overloaded!! as for the dryer, it has to be the philco dn500 i had...

4 months after acquiring i found it was the door lock after all! i fitted a replacement on Saturday, plumbed it in for the first time and tried a load, the machine ran perfectly, well almost, the door locked light went out about 10 or so mins in, the machine still completed the cycle though...

door lock there is no mains on light, the only lighs are for the heater and the door lock so thats why im thinking it must be that, at some point ill go over all connections again, but from what ive seem they all loom ok phil

small update yesterday i swapped the capacitors and supressors on the 7147 with the one on the 7128 and the 7147's worked in the 7128 so the next thing im going to try is bypassing the door lock directly, apparently i need to connect the live wire with switched live? someone tell me if this is...

multimeter unfortunately not, is it still worth trying the door interlock tomorrow just in case? in worried by doing so it could blow the 2nd interlock somehow? phil

Bendix 7147 2nd set of pics all rubber components were as good as new, wiring was as good as we could see, the whole machine is in very good order and must have been stored in perfect conditions to be in such good order. while the meet up was in progress, mark brought the matching 7447A dryer...

Bendix 7147 well saturday was its unboxing and here it is, theres just one small problem... once unpacked, we plugged in and started the machine on a spin to test. it ran, for about 1 minute, then it just stopped and all the machines lights went out, no big bangs or dramatic happenings, it...

plates & drun The inner drum was fine, found a few brown spots but they wiped off luckily enough, the plates were from the tub mounts, now all i need to is sort the motor, I've already checked the brushes and they've still got length on them, not sure if its enough though, going to replace them...

electrics LUCKILY there was no problems with the machine, we were investigating all wires, we found 3 to a small electrical board were loose, those were sorted, then we thought it was the brushes seeing as it makes a very scratchy sound on left turns yet after removing and inspecting the...

back to square 1 after that was completed the machine was run again and we still heard the tapping, so upon further investigation we thought it might be the paddles slightly loose, so we tightened those, tried again, still no luck, then we thought it might be the heater, tightened that, and...
