Thanks Tony. I am after a polisher. I just can not seem to find one anywhere. :cry:

Quick update: I phoned Silverline and explained it to them. They told me to pay for it to be sent back and they will send me a new one! Luurvely! :lol:

As it says, Is it possible to buy them over here? It looks like It is an America thing. Cheers. RPM

Yes it is screwed in to the motor housing. ( I am trying to "quote") hope it works? it will make it easier to reply :oops:

Thanks guys, Rest assured this thing is NOT going to be plugged in again until I sort it out. I think that it must be some sort of short? I will test all the wires in the morning and let you know how I get on. The multimeter that I have should give me some sort of idea of continuity...

Thanks Davy. I have not checked the plug as it is a sealed one. All I can do is post another photo to see if you can find anything. There is a sort of "glue?" on some of the wires. I thought it was burned at first, but it's not. The pic shows the motor the right way up. The black box under it...

Hi all and thanks. The more I read this, the more I am tempted to put this thing in the bin. I have checked all the wires,earths,leads etc..... and they all seem fine? I can only think that it must have been something to do with the bolts that snapped. There is only one thing that I...

WOW! I have spent the last three months trying to turn a simple spindle! Nice work. :wink:

Very nice. I will have to have a go at one myself :wink:

Hi Tintin. Is this any use to you? http://www.mtmc.co.uk/prodtype.asp?PT_I ... istory=cat I think they call them "bellows" Cheers RPM

Hi thanks for the replies. A strange twist to my "shocking" experience. This power wash has a shut off switch that stops the motor when the lance is released. I decided to remove the cover to it and found "what looks like" water marks. The shock came from the brass tube (to the right) as...

Hi Jason. Thanks for the swift reply. It is possible, In fact more than likely that swarf may have fallen in. I have got an RCD, but it was not in use at the time. Would the swarf act as a conductor? I never thought of that. Wonder if there is any hope for this machine now? :cry:

Hi, Another elec question I'm afraid! I have a power washer and 3 of the 4 head housing bolts snapped. Upon removal of the third bolt I found that it had stripped the tread and gone into the housing of the motor ( a bit of oil came out). I re-tapped the hole and heli-coiled it. When I...

Thanks for the replies. I found out it is a faulty capacitor. It will cost around £50 to repair. Cheers RPM

WOW! stunning bowl :shock: Well done. RPM

Thanks Fecn. I am determined not to bin this TV.There is enough waste in the landfill sites. It is pretty amazing tho how I can not seem to find any info on the WWW about it! Someone...somewhere must have had the same problem. Thanks for your reply...appreciated. RPM

Hi. Now here is a long shot. Have we got any TV repair people out there? I have got a TV that is on the blink. It is a Thomson 28" flat screen (model 28WF45E). The TV will come on...and then switch off, according to one website I found it will have a "LED blink code" and it does. the code...

Hi and welcome. RPM :)

Very neat! Have you any details on how to make it? WIP? Cheers. RPM

Hi Blister. Just out of curiosity.....have they taken payment for said item?
