Hello there, I would like to ask about this product as when I disassembly I forgot to take note on which is side is for the yellow spot and which side is for the white spot, could you help me with that, thank you so very much. Also, is this product come with a pair of two (one for yellow and one for white)?
Hi, I can confirm this kit is supplied as a pair; however we cannot help with fitting instructions. I'd recommend contacting an engineer to see if they're able to confirm.
Are these suitable for Hotpoint Aquarius TVFS73BGG(UK) model no. 610260143, Ind Code 95859750100?

Hi, The thermostats are not available separately on this model. You'd need RS594212, which is the complete heater and thermostat unit.
