[QUOTE="pgh13, post: 1011952, member: 191774"] Bitten by the spring cleaning bug, decided to shampoo carpet so got out the Vax, filled it and went through the motions, but after a few passes noticed that no water was being picked up. Some investigation revealed that this was because no water was being emitted from the machine and on further examination discovered the water on this particular model should pass through a solenoid pump; unfortunately, the coil is open circuit. The pump is labelled ARS - Italian manufacturer, but I can't find this as a replacement on ESpares or similar. It's marked 220-240 vac. the coils looks pretty standard with 13mm bore and 36mm high and 39.6mm diameter and spade connectors. Any ideas? In the past I've had success looking for replacement coils at independent appliance repairers but these seem to be thin on the ground these days and replacement coils from the likes of RS all seem to be moulded into a square package[ATTACH=full]105787[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105789[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
