In case this is seen by anyone who recognises it .. yes, I discovered how&why that top pipe is routed wrongly.
Now fixed.
It's a new pipe replacing an old, long-ago-bodge-repaired, one - that had been tie-wrapped on the different route.
Also repair here is studs fitted in place of self-tap screws.

It's a bit disgusting, but it works.

I may re-do this when the appropriate tools aren't 250 miles away.

But, for now, here has a working washing machine again. Yay!

This evening's challenge..

Replace this SMT IC using only this vintage Weller iron & failing eyesight.

Miele washing machine. Common fault.
