Hotpoint washing Machine Lights Flashing
Engineers repair comments.
On inspection of the customers aqxxl129 Hotpoint washing machine i found that when the door was shut and the machine switched on by the on-off button on the washing machine the lights on the control panel were light correctly and on, but when i opened the washing machine door the lights flickered and went off, i tried this several times and the same fault occured. I removed the hotpoint washing machine top and the control board cover from the door, I had an idea that the wiring cabled were damaged as they are run through the door hinge but i wasn’t sure if Hotpoint supplied this as a spare part. On closer inspection of the wiring cables i found that one of the wires was loose as it entered in the terminal plug, i reconnected the wire and tested the Hotpoint washing machine it worked fine again, no Hotpoint washing machine spare parts needed this time.

Hotpoint fridge not working think it’s the thermostat
Engineers repair comments.
On Inspection of the customers RL64 Hotpoint fridge i found that the light was on but the motor ( compressor ) wasn’t running. I switched the Hotpoint fridge off by the electrical plug then removed the thermostat box on the right hand side wall of the fridge by removing the screw cap that is situated in front of the temperature knob then the screw, pulled the thermostat box towards the front of the fridge then pulled it towards the middle of the cabinet. Then i removed the thermostat knob and nut that held the thermostat to the housing and then removed the wire cables. On the back plate of the fridge the thermostat sensing file was held i released the two screw holding this. I fitted the new Hotpoint thermostat and refit all the parts in the reverse of how i had removed them. Plugged the Hotpoint fridge into the electrical supply and the light came on and also the motor, another repair completed.
