If that does not work your retainer clips are bad and you can buy a rebuild kit for around 40.00 thru me shipped. It comes with retainer clip , spring and bracket

I am assuming that you have the appropriate adapter on your faucet.

You are not actually getting the connector attached to the faucet.

Pull down on the locking collar while lifting the hose connector onto the faucet adapter.

When the connector snaps into place, release the locking
collar.
Turn the hot water on slowly until it is all the way on.

How to clean the gravel in your fish tank?

In order to properly clean your aquarium you should follow the next step by step manual.

• You should fill half a bucket with dirty fish tank water. Then fill the rest with clean tap water. Then you should mix them together, the new and the dirty water so there will be no injure to the fish by drastically changing the water.

• Place your fish in the bucket.

• Unplug the aquarium and the aquarium equipment from the electricity.

• Drain the tank completely.

• Take two cupful of dirty gravel and put it aside. Since cleaning gravel with tap water will destroy most of the waste eating bacteria, it is necessary to save some gravel with bacteria for later on.

• Take the rest of the gravel and put it into two buckets.

• Place a garden hose into one bucket and turn the faucet on full blast. Frequently rinse and stir the gravel until the water in the bucket gets clean.

• Repeat the process with the second bucket.

• Clean the aquarium tank with hot tap water without using any soap or cleaning materials. Clean the internal parts of the aquarium and then wipe the insides with a paper towel.

• Put all the gravel back inside the tank in addition with the rest of the dirty gravel.

• Refill the tank with clean cold tap water. Make sure you add a de-chlorinating agent to the tap water.

• Plug in all the electrical parts.

• Return all the fish to the tank.

ARXF125 FRONT LOADER WASHING MACHINE FLASHING H20 SYMBOL DURING CYCLE

H20 is "no fill" or difficult fill. To test:Put the temp select switch on HOT, start machine. If water comes out check the flow amount. If no water flow, replace inlet water valve. If there is water flow switch to COLD, restart machine, if necessary. If water comes out check the flow amount should be approximately equal or slightly more than flow on HOT. If no water flow, replace inlet water valve. Move selector to WARM, restart machine if necessary. Now there should be twice the flow of water than with just HOT and COLD temps. If all seems good turn off the water supply taps. Loosen the connections at the machine. Wait for the hoses to relax before unscrewing them too far. If they do not relax STOP retighten and let me know. After removing the hoses check the screens condition in the end of valve. Those screens can become fouled with lime and other debris. Use a toothbrush and a spray bottle to remove crud. Hold the end of the hoses over a bucket or in the tub of washer and turn on TAPs to check the pressure, it doesn't have to blast out of there (but it likely will if you turn TAPs too far, so be careful) still it has to be more than a weak flow. If the screens are clean and if there is good flow the water valve should function, if it doesn't it is defective and will need replaced. BUT, before you do that you should try one more thing. Make sure you UNPLUG THE MACHINE FOR THIS! Open the console and disconnect and reconnect every wire connector you see. If a connection doesn't pop right off just give it a good wiggle. The goal here is to verify that connections are good, so reseat what you can and wiggle the rest and give wires that go through plastic connectors a slight push from behind the connector. Then plug the machine back in and give it a try. It's worked for me more than once. Let me know what you find out.

Water squirts out of the top of the tap hookup on our portable spacemaker

Possible there is a block which makes the water to leak out. remove the inlet connection and check the free flow, check the inlet filter and the valve, check the connectors for right mating. If there is leak then you must use teflon tape to plug the gap on the thread

The hot water just trickles out of the hot water taps, I've checked & cleaned the tempering valves, mains water pressure is fine, is the cylinder scaled or blocked

Something is blocked. Turn off water to heater disconnect outlet and attach a waterheater flex connector to tank outlet bend other end into bucket. turn on water briefly - water should blast into bucket.
If not:>>>>>>>>>> disconnect water heater inlet -you may find part of the flex washer stuck into the inlet nipple. Or dip tube may have disintegrated and be plugging outlet nipple, if you have the energy saving nipples the ball can jam debris in the nipple.
If water does blast into bucket >>>>>>>>>>>> Then the problem is farther down the line, maybe bad mixing valve. disconnect mixing valve outlet and use a garden hose to backflush through mixing valve with bucket under hot pipe disconnected from water heater. If flow through valve is restricted, replace valve.

My olympus will chime and only come up in the "play mode"

Submerse it in a bowl of water, ensuring everything is closed properly. Then run it under running tap water, not full blast and while doing this under the tap turn it off and on.
I just did this tonight after having the same problem and it worked!

Whirlpool Duet washing machine - no cold water comes in when I put it on cold cycle

Check the tap is turned on
if not fix
turn off taps, check the lint screen inside the hose end (tap connector end) is not blocked
if not fix
check cable connections on cold water solenoid valve inside rear of case
if not fix
replace cold water solenoid.

cold water solenoid valve fails more often than hot, is used on every cycle so bnurns out first.
unplug washer and turn off water before checking cables or replacing solenoid.


solenoid is cheap, common to many washers local parts guy will have one that fits even if it is labelled ge frigidaire kenmore
