Electrician needed for dishwasher

£89

Dalston, Greater London, E8

15th Feb 2026

My dishwasher is causing the kitchen circuit breaker to trip. When the dishwasher is turned on, the circuit trips almost immediately. After switching off the dishwasher at the wall, the circuit breaker can be reset and works normally. This suggests there may be an electrical fault within the dishwasher (possibly heating element, wiring, or internal component). I need a qualified appliance technician or electrician to: • Diagnose the cause of the fault • Confirm whether it can be repaired safely • Provide repair if possible, or advise if replacement is required

Great communication.

Electrical fault on my jeep renegade.

£10

Poplar, Greater London

14th Feb 2026

Headlights and rear lights turn on and off by themselves even when driving and parked. It started after I had a crash front end a few years ago and it’s never been the same since. I had replaced the switch a few month ago and it was fine for a few weeks then started again. I think there’s an underlying issue maybe a loose connection. When driving and the lights go off I hit the switch hard which can fix it.
