Common Electric Cooker Issues

February 11, 2025 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

Bath Domestic Appliances has a lot of experience fixing freezers in Wiltshire and Somerset. We see the same problems over and over again. Sometimes, freezer problems are caused by simple mistakes. We’ve put together a list of five common freezer faults that you can check for yourself before calling our freezer experts. Please be careful! Don’t try to fix a freezer yourself unless you know what you’re doing. Freezers use very high voltage electricity, even when they’re turned off.

What’s Causing Your Dinner Disaster?

Common Issues with Electric Cookers & How to Fix Them

The humble electric cooker is the mainstay of millions of British kitchens, providing us with a wealth of culinary creations from Sunday roasts to quick mid-week meals.

Our hard-working cookers are dependable on the whole, but nothing is infallible so now and then they will let us down (let’s hope its not on the eve of an important dinner party). Most electric cooker faults can be fixed by a professional repair company, like Bath Domestic Appliances.

Sometimes the problem is simply down to human error or neglect, in which case you could even perhaps put it right yourself. Don’t ever mess around with the workings of a cooker, oven or hob, though without turning off the mains electricity or you could be in for a nasty shock!

We’ve put together this guide to common issues with electric cookers with some advice about how to troubleshoot your cooker and sort out the problem.

Electric Cooker Hob Hassles

Your electric cooker will have one of three different types of cooking plates on the top – either a solid plate, ceramic or induction hob.

All are subject to similar faults, which when they occur are generally best found and fixed by a qualified professional. The most common faults with electric cooker hobs are:

Electric hob failing to heat
The first thing to do is to check your consumer unit (fuse box) to ensure the circuit breaker for the cooker hasn’t tripped. If it has, reset it, but if the hob is still not heating you’ll need a professional to check things like the element, the wiring or the control switch.
Electric hob plate heating unevenly
This is a problem because it can lead to burnt patches in your cooking. It is often the result of a failing element, which needs to be installed by a qualified electrician or repair technician.
Hob won’t turn off
This is a serious safety hazard for obvious reasons, and usually indicates a problem with the control switch. Unplug the cooker straight away and call a repair expert.
Cracked hob plate
A cracked ceramic hob not only looks unsightly but can also be dangerous. The hob may still work with hairline cracks, but these will gradually get worse and impact on its functionality. Better safe than sorry – call a technician to replace the hob.

Electric Cooker Oven Ailments

When your oven gives you the cold shoulder or starts burning your favourite bakes the most common reasons for it malfunctioning are:

Electric oven failing to heat
As described with the electric hob (above) first check the circuit breaker. If all is well in that respect, the problem could be a faulty heating element, thermostat or oven control module. A professional diagnosis and repair will be needed.
Electric oven heating unevenly
If you want to avoid the infamous baking “soggy bottom” you need your oven to heat evenly. If you’re noticing a problem this could be down to a malfunctioning element or a faulty fan. The fan is there to circulate hot air for even cooking. If it’s not working professional help is recommended.
Electric oven overheating
An oven that overheats is a recipe for disaster (pun intended!). This usually indicates a faulty thermostat. Continuing to use an overheating oven is dangerous and can lead to fires. Unplug the cooker and call a repair service immediately.
Electric oven tripping the fuse box
If your oven repeatedly trips the circuit breaker this indicates there is a serious electrical fault, possibly a short circuit. Do not attempt to fix this yourself. Unplug the cooker and call a qualified repair professional.
Oven light not working
A non-functioning oven light is usually a simple fix. Try replacing the bulb first. If that doesn’t work, the problem might be with the light fitting or wiring, requiring a professional.

Electric Cooker Grill Grievances

If your electric cooker comes with a built-in grill you’ll no doubt become very dependent on this useful feature. If the grill’s sizzle starts to fizzle, there could be several reasons:

Grill not heating
Similar to the hob and oven, check the circuit breaker first. If the electrics are fine, the issue is likely a faulty grill element or switch. Rectifying these issues is best left to a professional.
Grill overheating
An overheating grill is a fire hazard. Unplug the cooker and call a repair service immediately.

Electric Cooker Care

To prolong the life of your electric cooker and avoid costly repairs, regular cleaning is essential. Keep the hob clean, remove spills promptly, and clean the oven regularly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that can damage the hob’s surface.

If something does go wrong it’s better to get a quote for a repair before deciding to abandon your cooker and spend out on a new one. You’ll be surprised how cost effective it is to repair rather than replace. With proper care your cooker can last you for many years.

If you live in or around the city of Bath, bring your electric cooker problems to Bath Domestic Appliances, and we’ll keep you cooking! We serve Bath, Bradford-on-Avon, Corsham, Frome, Keynsham, Melksham, Peasedown St John, Trowbridge, Saltford, Somerset, Warminster, Westbury and Wiltshire.

Common Freezer Issues

November 12, 2024 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

Continual Operation

If you notice that your freezer might be working too hard to keep your food cold, it could be because it’s struggling to maintain the desired temperature. When your freezer struggles, you’ll often hear it whirring on long after closing the door.

A broken thermostat is a common cause of a freezer working overtime as its responsible for regulating the temperature inside the freezer. Blocked vents can also cause a freezer to not switch off because its vents allow air to circulate inside the freezer. If they’re blocked, the air can’t circulate properly, and the freezer works far harder to keep your food cold.

Not enough refrigerant is another common cause of a freezer working overtime. Refrigerant is a substance that helps to cool the air inside the freezer. If there’s not enough refrigerant, the freezer will have to work harder to keep your food cold.

If you think your freezer might be working overtime, make sure that there is a gap between the wall and the back of your freezer. This allows air to circulate properly and help your freezer to cool more efficiently. If the problem persists, get in touch with our team here at Bath Domestic Appliances. We’re on hand to solve your freezer issues!

Unequal temperatures

Erratic temperatures and warm spots within the freezer can indicate a number of underlying issues, including a faulty thermostat, blocked air vents, or an improper door seal. These problems often times lead to inefficient cooling and thus food going bad, and an increased energy bill.

If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to call out an engineer from Bath Domestic Appliances to diagnose and fix the problem. Our professional team members carry all the tools and have the expertise to identify the exact cause of the problem and make the necessary repairs. This will help to ensure that your freezer is working properly and efficiently.

Frost accumulation

Excessive frost can cause a number of problems for your freezer such as build up on the seals around the drawers, making them difficult to open and close. This can be frustrating and time-consuming. Also, frost can take up a lot of space in your freezer, reducing the amount of food you can store.

Frost can prevent the freezer from cooling properly, which can lead to food going off which is an unfortunate way to waste money when costs are already high. Finally, frost can damage the freezer’s components, such as the evaporator coils and the fan motor. As a result, you can be hit with costly repairs and even the need for a completely new freezer.

If you notice that your freezer is getting too frosty, you should try to fix the problem by defrosting the ice as soon as possible or calling one of our engineers to solve the issue. This will help to prevent further damage to your freezer and your food, saving you money and time.

Freezer won’t stay chilled

A freezer might not be cooling properly for a number of reasons. You might notice your food defrosting and a noticeable absence of a cold breeze when opening the freezer. When your freezer is unable to maintain a set temperature, it’s important to rule out any simple causes.

First, check to ensure that there’s nothing blocking the door from closing properly by rearranging your freezer items. Following this you can check for a leaky door seal. Any leaks allow warm air to enter the freezer, making it difficult to maintain a cold temperature.

If you live in or around the city of Bath, bring your freezer problems to Bath Domestic Appliances, and we’ll keep you cooking! We serve Bath, Bradford-on-Avon, Corsham, Frome, Keynsham, Melksham, Peasedown St John, Trowbridge, Saltford, Somerset, Warminster, Westbury and Wiltshire.

Common Fridge Errors

November 5, 2024 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

Bath Domestic Appliances have a great deal of experience at repairing fridges across Wiltshire and Somerset, and we come across the same common faults and problems all the time.

Sometimes fridge issues are just down to improper or incorrect use, so we thought we’d compile this list of five common fridge faults that you can use for troubleshooting before you call in our fridge experts for professional advice.

Please be aware though that it is not advisable to tinker with the inner workings of a fridge unless you are qualified to do so, because they use extremely high electricity voltage, which is stored even after the appliance is switched off.

A Warm Fridge

When your fridge isn’t cooling properly, there are a few signs you might notice. Food that goes bad faster than usual, or a lack of a cold breeze when you open the door are the most obvious signs that your fridge is too warm. Before you start troubleshooting, check to make sure that nothing is blocking the door from closing properly. If the door is closing properly, and the temperature is set correctly there are a few other things that could be causing the problem.

One possibility is that the door seal is damaged, allowing warm air to enter the fridge, making it difficult to keep the temperature cold. Another possibility is that the temperature is set too high. Finally, a buildup of frost on the evaporator coils can also cause the fridge to not cool properly. If you are not sure how to fix the problem, you can call a repair technician.

Fluctuating temperatures or warm spots within the fridge can indicate a faulty thermostat, blocked air vents, or an improper door seal. Again, an engineer would be needed as they can bring the correct tools to identify the area of the issue and solve your problem efficiently.

Constant Running

Sometimes your fridge might be working overtime. When your appliance seems to be working overtime, there can be a few reasons, such as a faulty thermostat, blocked vents, or a lack of refrigerant liquid leading to the fridge struggling to maintain the desired temperature.

To help your fridge work more efficiently, make sure there is a gap between the wall and the back of the fridge. This will allow air to circulate properly and help the fridge cool down. If your fridge is still working overtime, even after you have checked the vents and made sure there is a gap between the wall and the back of the fridge, you should contact a qualified appliance repair technician. They will be able to diagnose the problem and fix it for you.

Water Leakage

Water inside or leaking from the front of your fridge can be a sign of a few different problems. If you see water pooling on the bottom shelf or leaking from the front of the fridge, it could be caused by condensation from a faulty door seal. This happens when warm, moist air from the kitchen enters the fridge and condenses on the cold surfaces inside.

Water ingress or leakage from the front panel suggests a temperature control issue. If the fridge is not cooling properly, the warm air inside will also cause condensation and water buildup. Either way, it’s important to have the problem fixed by a professional as soon as possible. Leaving the issue unresolved can lead to mold and mildew growth, which can damage the fridge and pose a health risk.

Common Dishwasher Issues

October 4, 2024 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

Bath Domestic Appliances has won awards for excellent customer service, and this family firm has built up a reputation for top class workmanship over the past 25 years. So, when your reliable dishwasher isn’t quite right, contact our repairs hotline on 01225 461 711 or by using our online contact form. By seeking professional assistance from our expert team, you can ensure that your dishwasher’s issue is resolved safely and correctly.

Dishwasher isn’t turning on

When your dishwasher isn’t turning on, you might want to begin troubleshooting for issues. Most problems can be solved by carefully inspecting the plug socket for any issues, such as a loose plug or a broken the fuse. If the dishwasher still doesn’t work, consider testing the outlet by connecting another device to it. This will help determine if the outlet itself is causing the issue.

If the plug socket nor the plug is the culprit, the problem might lie with one of the dishwasher‘s internal components. There might be an issue with the control board, which regulates the dishwasher’s functions, or the power supply could be faulty. In these cases, it’s advisable to consult one of our qualified technicians who can diagnose and repair the problem efficiently.

Dishwasher is making loud noises

Dishwashers, despite their efficiency, are not completely silent. They will inevitably produce some noise when they start running. However, excessive noise can be a sign of a problem. A loud hum might suggest a motor issue, while grinding or rattling sounds could point to a problem with the pump, spray arms, or door latch. High-pitched sounds, on the other hand, often indicate a bearing problem.

If you notice any of these unusual sounds, it’s important to address them promptly to avoid further damage or inconvenience. If the problem persists, you can count on our engineers to consult for a thorough diagnosis and repair the issue.

A leaky dishwasher

A leaking dishwasher can be a frustrating household problem. To diagnose the issue, begin by inspecting the dishwasher both inside and out for any visible damage. Look for cracks, holes, or worn seals around the door, pipes, and seals. If there’s no obvious damage, listen for the sound of dripping water or a running water pump. Dripping sounds might indicate a faulty water inlet valve or drain pump.

If you find a puddle of water near the dishwasher, this could signify a blocked drain hose or a malfunctioning drain pump. Check for any kinks, bends, or obstructions that might be preventing water from flowing freely. If the drain hose appears clear, the problem may lie with the drain pump itself. Also, listen for any unusual noises coming from the pump, such as grinding or humming. If you hear these sounds, it’s likely that the pump is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced.

Foul odours

A foul-smelling dishwasher can be a sign of underlying issues often caused by food debris or mold. Check the strainer screen and filtration system for any food particles. A damaged seal or exterior can allow moisture in, leading to a musty odour. To address the smell, thoroughly clean the dishwasher interior using a commercial cleaner . Wipe down all surfaces with a soft cloth, paying attention to the corners, crevices, and the underside of the top rack.

Dirty Dishes

If your dishwasher isn’t cleaning your dishes effectively, there are a few things you can check. First, make sure it’s completing its entire cycle. If it stops prematurely, there might be a mechanical problem, such as a faulty timer or motor. Also, check the spray arms and filters for any food particles that might be blocking water flow. Food particles can accumulate in these areas and prevent the water from reaching all parts of the dishwasher.

Overloading the dishwasher can prevent water from reaching all of the dishes, leading to poor cleaning performance. By systematically checking these factors, you can often identify and resolve the underlying problem, restoring your dishwasher’s cleaning capabilities.

Built-In Troubleshooting Codes for Washing Machines

All in all, you probably hope your washing machine will never break down, but of course no home appliance is infallible, and they can suffer from technical errors.

Fortunately, like most modern washing machine manufacturers, have built in a set of troubleshooting codes that are displayed on the machine when a problem is detected. These codes are designed to give you – and/or a repair engineer – an idea of what has gone wrong with the operation of the machine.

Understanding washing machine error codes

LG Washing Machine Error Codes

January 31, 2025May 23, 2024 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

If you’re in love with your LG washing machine it’s not surprising. These washing machines have a lot going for them.

Our updated guide for LG Washing Machine Error Codes for 2025.

LG machines come with large drum capacity and plenty of features, yet they are reasonably priced (starting from around £400). They come in grey shades as well as the ubiquitous white, look good in the kitchen or utility room, and run with very quiet motors.

It’s interesting to note that LG washing machines emanate from South Korea, but the LG washers we have in the UK are assembled in Wroclaw, Poland.

All in all, you probably hope your LG washing machine will never break down, but of course no home appliance is infallible, and they can suffer from technical errors.

Built-In Troubleshooting Codes for LG Washing Machines

Fortunately, LG like most modern washing machine manufacturers, have built in a set of troubleshooting codes that are displayed on the machine when a problem is detected. These codes are designed to give you – and/or a repair engineer – an idea of what has gone wrong with the operation of the machine.

It really helps our appliance engineers at Bath Domestic Appliances if you can tell us about the error code that you see on your LG washing machine when you call us out to make a repair.

LG washing machine fault codes are only useful for those who know what they mean, so we’ve put together a list of the most common LG codes you’ll notice on the digital display of a LG washing machine or LG washer-dryer that will make sure you’re alerted if your machine malfunctions while you’re doing the laundry.

Understanding LG Washing machine fault codes

AE – Flooding detected

If your LG washing machine has an anti-flood device this code will show when water is detected in the base of the machine, indicating a leak. Sometimes there may be no water present, but the float of the anti-flood device may be stuck closed. In either case you’ll need an expert to repair the problem, and probably replace the PCB as well.

CE – Possible motor current overload

Before you panic about this LG washing machine error code, check to ensure that you don’t have the drum packed with a too-heavy load. The sensors will be telling you the motor is not powerful enough to turn the drum, or turn it very slowly.

If overloading is not the problem then you are probably looking at a faulty motor, which has short-circuited due to a sudden current overload, or there could be a problem with the PCB (printed circuit board), which means you need professional help to diagnose and fix it.

CL – Child lock

As the initials suggest, this code means the Child Lock feature is activated, locking the control panel. It can be deactivated by pressing and holding the child lock button for several seconds until the CL code disappears.

DE – Problem with the door closure

This code (which can also show as dE1 or dE2) indicates that there is a problem with the LG washing machine’s door lock. It could be that you simply haven’t closed it properly, or it is misaligned because of an obstruction.

If you’ve checked and all is well, then it means there is a fault or malfunction with the door lock mechanism, and this will need replacing.

FE – Faulty water overflow

This code will be displayed during the filling part of the washing machine cycle, indicating there is too much water in the drum. This is probably down to a faulty water valve, or it could be due to low water pressure.

IE – Water supply error

You’ll see this LG washing machine fault code if there is not enough water entering the machine to start the cycle, meaning the water level in your machine is too low. This can often be resolved by checking that the taps are opened sufficiently, and examining the hose for blockages or kinks. If this doesn’t work then its likely there is a problem with the water inlet valve itself, and you’ll need an engineer to fix it.

LE – Overloading

This code is triggered when the machine detects an overload. The motor is unable to turn the drum because the laundry load is too heavy. Reduce the load and all should be well, but if the code doesn’t go away it’s a sign the motor may be faulty.

OE/UE – Unbalanced laundry load

When the wash cycle begins the machine will move the drum to make sure the wash load is evenly distributed. When the machine reaches the spin cycle and the load is unbalanced due to heavy or very large items being inside the code will be triggered and the machine will fail to spin. You can try redistributing the load, and check the machine is standing level on a flat, even surface. If the code persists there could be a problem with the tachometer on the motor.

PE – Water level pressure sensor faulty

This code indicates there is a problem with the sensor that regulates how much water the machine takes in. This can only be rectified by replacing the faulty pressure sensor, or even the printed circuit board itself.

TE – temperature sensor faulty

This code is triggered when the thermistor that regulates the water temperature in the washing machine is faulty, failing to activate the heating element. The machine will stop, and you’ll need to get the faulty thermistor replaced.

February 3, 2025May 15, 2024 by wp-bathdomesticappliances

Your Hotpoint washing machine as you will know is a reliable, trustworthy machine that you can trust every time you need to clean clothes. However, on occasions, there may be reason that it can’t perform to its highest capacity. Often times this is as a result of a small issue with your washing machine such as the door lock being blocked, or the machine being over filled.

In any case, your Hotpoint washing machine will display an error code. In this blog, updated for 2025, we will do a deep dive into Error Code F05. Error code F05 in 99% of cases signifies a draining issue. Your washing machine is unable to pump out wastewater. This is often due to a blockage in the wastewater pump or housing. Symptoms of the issue include water in the washer and the machine refusing to spin wet clothes.

The primary cause of an F05 error is a blocked pump, and the first step to resolve it is to clear the pump’s filter, which can become obstructed with foreign objects and washing residue. If the filter is clear, the next step is to check the wastewater hose for blockages. If the issue persists, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.

How to fix a F05 error on a Hotpoint washing machine

Firstly, check the drain pump and filter. An F05 error code is often due to a blocked pump. Clearing the pump’s filter is a messy job so prepare the area around your washing machine before clearing the drain.

Inspect the wastewater housing. Ensure there are no blockages in the wastewater housing. Additionally, check the waste pipe for any potential blockages or kinks.

If the error persists after performing these steps, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance or consider replacing the pump if it is found to be defective.
