    Washing machine motor - Carbon Brush & Screw Bit?

    Tried the insulator test as suggested by @Mr.Cookie with a multimeter. No issues there. Inclined to believe @darael machines repair just ain't what it used to be =(

    Washing machine motor - Carbon Brush & Screw Bit?

    Ah yes ok I've seen in drills before too. I suppose helps make the machines more silent and economical? Nevertheless, seems like a whole motor replacement then(!) Thank you so much for your responses. Was a basic solution but didn't come across any of this stuff so thank you. :rolleyes::)

    That's interesting. Wondering how the motor moves without contact from the brushes? Any links please?

    Washing machine motor - Carbon Brush & Screw Bit?

    Uploaded a few more pics below. The wires go in the housing. I'm convinced the brushes must be in the housing but why would they fix with immovable 'rivets'?!

    Washing machine motor - Carbon Brush & Screw Bit?

    Thanks for response bremen1874. I should've mentioned that I opened that black cover and there's nothing under there. It appears to just cover the other end of the rotary mechanism?

    Short circuited lighting circuit

    Thank you for your input all. Bought a multimeter at the weekend and it was the fuse in the end. The 3amp fuse was in the switch when the issue occurred so I understand this. Don't understand why the 5amp fuse is blown though as I put this in after? Nevertheless, put in a 3 amp fuse on...

    Short circuited lighting circuit

    I've changed the LED strip so can't be that. When you say switch do you mean the fcu itself?

    Short circuited lighting circuit

    Reconnected stuff with switches off. Just to clarify, I switched everything off before i unhooked and reconnected it all. Once everything was reconnected that's when i switched everything back on and that's when i assume the live and neutral wires must've touched each other.

    Indoor aerial solution

    That's the part where I'm being difficult. I don't want to have to hide any cabling in any way. Made the big unfortunate mistake of not running an aerial cable to the media cabinet.

    Hi all. Apologies if this query already exists. I have my indoor aerial connected to my TV and placed on the window. Reception and picture are both great. However I'd like to hide the wires for the aerial behind the TV. But of course if I place the aerial behind the TV there is interference in...
