    Operating system installed succesfully today after 50 errors and missing this and that
    and burned 2 bootable discs to have one working during these days.

    Today spent a lot of hours in bed because it's 15th August
    and work will start on 20th August.
    Even if the garage told me they want to fire me cauze I take so much time,
    especially to change an alternator.
    I told sorry, I didn't work with modern engine that has alternator belt tensioner.

    Plan to fix no start car in 51 weeks.

    need to find why got 43VAC between washing machine case and the kitchen sink.
    Because the socket where the washing machine is attached is not grounded to earth.

    1) You need to find where is the earth rod in your garden.
    If you have an earth rod in the garden.

    2) Open the wall socket. Is there a wire connected where the earth wire must be?
    a - There's a wire
    b - No wire

    > a- Open all the electric box or wall socket near to the washing machine.
    Could you follow THAT wire?

    > b- Run a wire from the washing machine wall socket to a trusted wall socket that
    is grounded or directly to the earth rod*.

    *It is not intended that MH will use a wire from wall socket that lay to the floor untill it
    reach his handmade earth rod made of welded tesco can/jar
    but everyone know that it is exactly what is going to be his PERMANENT solution.

    Buy an insulation test meter burn the kitchen sink and wash machine with 1000V. then when they are both kaput! you know why? otherwise yes 43V is induction induced current through L and N being un-paired common on light circuit where there is what's known as a borrowed neutral and not earthed.
