How do I know whether the valve is open or closed, I assumed they are open when the 'knob' is inline with the pipe. I just had a problem with my machine not starting and I looked at the valves, one was 'in-line' (blue) but the other (red) was at a right angle to the flow.
Anyway I tried it with both inline and it did start so I assume that is correct, but I did fiddle with it 'half open (45%).
Anyway the machine has finished now so I guess I can find out for myself by disconnection the pipe but I willleave the answer here so someone in a simiilar situation can be helped. Actually I just tried and water came out either way!!
Help!
To slightly complicate things the valve on the red pipe is incorperates a 90% bend, but if it was'straightened out' it would be the same as the blue pipe.
Many thanks for any help!
