Does anyone know who makes these ?
Thanks in advance.
What make is the washing machine you mention in your posts to the French DIY groups?
Easiest way is going to be as a spare part for the machine it comes out of. Even if you find the manufacturer, you may well find it's a custom item supplied only to the W/M manufacturer in batches of 10,000.
What did the gauge? drum spinning off-axis?
Firstline LF1200 A.7. House brand of Carrefour, the local Tesco.
Probably, but there's a 10-day wait. Not being able to find even basic information, like the temperature or whether its NC or NO, bugs me.
It's a front loader. The lid of the klixon is in the same plane as the back wall of the tub. One of the legs of the spider got bent backwards by about 5 mm so, at that point, the drum gets pretty close to the back wall of the tub. And since the klixon protrudes a little bit...
OK. Check that the bearing isn't worn too, making the drum droop. You can do this by seeing if you can lift the front of the inner drum relative to the outer drum. That's the normal cause of this sort of failure.
Does it still function electrically? May be repairable if it does, fitting a blank flat plate and iron wiring the thermal to it.
Another approach is to determine what exactly it does, then you know what can be used in its place. Is it detecting wash temp? Or some sort of overheat condition? Is there more than one, or just that one?

I believe the Firstline Carrefour washers are made by Haier, a chinese white goods company.
I think this may be your part,

Is your washer here?
