the 2 washers circa 1985. Nice to think these were displayed not far from each other 23 years ago in a nice showroom.

and into distribute.
now, unfortunately i ballsed up a bit and havent got a 1000rpm video.
really sorry - either thought i had one when i didn't or i deleted it by mistake. I came away from that week off with over 400 pictures and vids to sort through - probably deleted it in error.
will deffo do a 1000rpm vid when we get it out again - possibly next month.
there is one more vid after this one to post though.
listen to that door interlock buzzing away....

the final vid for the time being...
some rinse cycle tumbling, then we see the dial click round for the distribute. then into a short spin of about 575ish, then to off.
hope you have enjoyed the vids and i will do one of it at 1000rpm when we have it out to play next...

well, that is pretty much it.
The machine has had:
replacement facia
replacement programmer dial
replacement chrome door
replacement power drawer
replacement powder drawer facia
replacement bearings
replacement lid side strips
replacement waste water hose
replacement front door seal
&
replacement sump hose
I think that is everything.
There are still one or two things to do:
replacement side strips.....we will be keeping our eyes out for a suitable pair, with the correct attachment fixtures.
we will be keeping our eyes open for any 956XX facia.....with something so fragile, you can never have too many (a 95620 one would be great).
one or two of the more major paintwork dings may get touched up.....the one on the lid, above the powder drawer is a particularly irritating one for me.
But, other than that, me and Rob are really pleased with the results. it is great to see and hear a New Generation in full flight again and i loved this particular model as a kid. i'd never have thought that, nearly 25 years after they were introduced, i would finally own one.
Have just had a browse through the contributory postings - apologies for not answering these questions earlier...
Hi RobM...i think the last vid posted might answer your question re:different spins.
My mums machine would go into distribute, ramp upto spin and then afterwards decelerate back to distribute, but would not stop.
The 95620 decelerates down to stop, which i never knew it did. Indeed i remember the looks on mine, rob's and the cardiff friends faces when it did decelerate to stop. Written across them was the comment 'well, i never knew it did that!'.
Can be a b1tch rebalancing, with small loads though, as the machine snatches straight back upto distribute speed, which can cause the load to attach itself to one part of the drum.
Hope that this was the different spin that you were referring to.
Hi David...i think this machine was programmed differently to your washer-dryer. Doesnt do intermediate tumbles in between distribute.
What model washer-dryer did you have - i seem to remember you mentioning 9934 before?
My 9901 didn't (i think) do intermediate tumbles. Perhaps it was a slightly later feature. cheers for your comment.
If I have missed anyone - again, apologies.
Can I take this opportunity to thank, also on Robs behalf, our mate in Cardiff without whose help all this could not have been done.
Thanks for sourcing many of the main replcement parts and components, offering advice, grafting and generally being a superb bloke.
Thanks for helping collect it with me as well.
Without your it would still be a total mess.
Cheers mate - you are very much appreciated.
All the best to you all.
cheers

No problem! Yeah, i had a white 9934. Was a good machine except for the vent ripping clothes etc :-(
Heres what my machine done: the machine would drain and distribute and rev up to 400rpm and stop. It would tumble twice then distribute and spin at 600rpm for a 30 secs.
On the final spin it would do the same and when the knob moved on you could hear the machine would dip then go back up 600rpm. It was sort of like a hoover machine but the dip was much shorter. On the fast spin the machine would go from 600rpm up to 1000. In the manual it said it had pulsed spins so i guess that was that! I got excited you see when i saw it stop after the first burst haha.

Being those "few" years older than you I got to play with Matchboxes and Liberators

I can still remember discovering how a Hoover door slide worked- much to the annoyance of various Seeboard and CO-OP salesmen no doubt!!

Hello Rob & Paul
what a brilliant thread!.........arggh that fot of you sitting there hands clasped watching! thats me aswell after i have done a rebuild......only difference is i would have an ashtray full up with fag butts, and a load of half drunk tea cups everywhere.
The pictures really show the tasks involved, and the mounting excitement as you near the end of the job.
Really well done, I am pleased you got something you really wanted and were able to get it right.
It pi...s me off that i am not allowed to bring any of my machines into the house for real use.......I dream that one day the Bosch will blow up and i might get a chance then to bring one into the house
Again well done and thanks for an excellent thread

and here was me thinking me and rob were the only New Genner
How do Lee and welcome to the forum.
Really great to know that there is an almond 95622 undergoing the rebuild treatment.
Almond was such a great colour - my mum had a 95452 from 1986 through 2005 and how smart it looked. Was bought to go with the new kitchen in 1986 and was retained when another new kitchen was installed in early 2005.
Was only got rid of because of bearings seizure - had I been back into washers and dryers back then, then it would be in store right now.
Alas it was one of those which got away.
Finding the replacement chrome door is the visual key - that is what inspired me and Rob (with the help of a great mate) to do right by our 95620.
They were (and still are) great machines - be sure to show us the progress. Be great to see an almond New generation again!
Cheers
Paul

Hi Steve.
Thanks for the best wishes - me and rob are really pleased with the machine, although there are still one or two visual things to sort out.
Namely a left and right hand side strip. I am sure we'll stumble across a couple eventually.
How do Gary.
Realy pleased you enjoyed the thread.
The piccies do show some of the tasks involved - bloody hell, that nut really didnt want to release the drum!
How is the A3190 and A3110 doing? me and rob are keeping an eye out for a replacement spin speed button for the 3110. They really are great machines and possessing the very first Electron 1100 version - all those WANTED adverts paid off big style.
Cheers guys

Hello Paul
It is a pleasure to see all this, I wish took fots but i cant be asked....I just want to get on.......Electrons all have the same basic problem when i get them, "twisted tub"......so its out with trusty 13mm spanner and mole grips, molykote grease, new suspension kit and the machine upside down......., then of course there are wheels........bloody awful softish rubber ones at the back, this is worst design feature of all the early Hoovers from a stability point of view, I replace them all with suitable new ones, and then there is any rust that needs treating.........blah blah blah........you get the picture.
The A3190 is basically done now it had an unusual fault in that the thermostat was playing up......that was perhaps the biggest suprise to find......especially down here
The A3110 is still lovely........makes me smile when i look at it.........thanks for looking out for a spin speed button, they are for sale on some websites, but they are black (A3190 etc) and bloody expensive for what they are, if they were brown then i would swallow the cost and just get one
I brought home a A3350 which i have started to work on, but i got flu and have stopped for the time being
Regarding the trim on the lovely chromey Hotpoint we get them in at work from time to time, but that brown trim is always broken, however if one comes in with trim in tact i will try and remove it for you and also if any chrome doors come in i will get them
I still have the purple chrome door for a Hotpoint tumble dryer here that mikechesterfield said he wanted but he has not got in touch so i dunno about that
BTW the lad with tussled red hair and side burns looks ded cute in the fot
right i think thats it so far
Take care

Cheers Gary - Im assuning your referring to moi? Its certainly not red I can assure you
Im living proof blondes CAN be intelligent!
Have posted a pic of me in the off topic forum but heres one of me anyways.
Excuse the scruffs im dressed in,
AM going to raid the local spares shop on Monday - the guys not been there for months but il keep calling his mobile until he promises to be there. We need a ton of stuff as it is from there so its worth pestering him silly now as he keeps standing us up.
Will see what I can do in the line of A3110 buttons etc.
I f you want you can mail privately or add me to MSN if you want and you could maybe send me a list of stuff you need that I might find you - this guy has thousands of obsolete parts from machines long gone.
Cheers
