My new zanussi fl812!

[zanussi1989]

It took me nearly a hour to fit it!!! Lol then about half an hour to try and get the spring on! In the end I had to as next door to come and help me. I've put the new thermostat in, it was still not reaching the right temp, but all seems great now! Hope I get a good few years out of this machine now. Thanks for all your help tom.

My pleasure Lamont! Great to hear that the new thermostat did the trick and you managed to fit the new door seal. If you need any more help with it in the future please let me know.

Here is my FL1123 from 1985.

Hi Lamont.
welcome to the club and congrats on the new old machine.

Lovely machines, 80s Zanussi's - very solid and reliable.

Am picking up one tomorrow, but don't know if its an FL812 or an FL1012. Only find out when I get there - am hoping for the latter, as I need it for a project.

Owned a WD1012 until a few years back, until we passed it onto Lavamatjon. We bought it from the back of a scrap lorry for a tenner and, though fully operational electrically, someone had holed to outer tub:-( Still usable, but the tub requires re-bunging every now and then.
