control panel Mains indicator on. I still need to run the hot water pipe work in so it will be fed from bendix taps, I was intending to do this work, but of course a new machine is always more exciting.

That's great
I hoped it had found a good home , I have a workshop manual ( if you don't I think you might , I'm not sure who has what here,) I know what you mean regarding the dryer fan it makes a racket during washing , apparently US models had a third solenoid to switch fan on and off when needed.
One thing they don't really work off " cold " water , if you select 3, 4 a warm wash they fill with a mixture of hot and cold so cold water only will be at the temp of incoming water, the heater doesn't kick in at all. If cold only fill 1,2 ie very hot or hot will only heat to a certain temp, water has to be a certain temp or thermostat switches off early, so will result in a lower temp. No prob for quick play, but it does require hot water. In a way if "free" hot water can be sought theses are very ecological as it only uses electric to boost temp. Mine has developed a thermostat problem, number 2 should be about 65.c but now goes on to heat to near boiling. To get a 40.c I run hot tap ( from combi boiler ) and let it fill on a number 2 , once full press 4 and it washes at 40.c To get 60 I do same but press 2 and then press 4 once it's heated to what I feel like 60 is. I tend to press 4 as it does cold rinses , then press 1,2,3 to get longer spin. This is my only washer so some may think a faf but still love it. They are solid machines well done! Richard

0h no Al, sold on ebay, he got it some months ago, installed and enjoyed it, but once this bendix and the gas range came along a few things had to be moved on. Mathew | ||
