I have the same problem on my V2490. Will not heat to seal or create bags. So I took it apart! The heating element is only heating at the ends. Since Tilia doesn't repair or sell parts, I found a cite that carries replacement items.

I don't know how if a replacement element will help. I am trying to find a wiring diagram to make sure i do it right...

How. To change Rear main seal

remove gear box and flywheel for starters if the rear seal is in a case then remove that case and fit new seal. If it is a lip seal the remove the old seal and check the crank shaft for a groove. IT is grooved use a "speedie" sleeve ( trade mark name) from a bearing /seal supplier and then fit the new seal using a quality seal fitting tool.

If the rear main seal is the old two piece seal/ felt seal then you will have to virtually remove the crank to do the job properly.

In situations such as yours it is advisable to firstly go to the manufacturers spares department and enquire if one is available.. If not remove the seal and along with the measurement of the dia of the slip yoke go to a shop that sells bearing and seals only and they will be able to match up the correct seal. If you look closely at the seal there should be a make and seal number stamped /moulded on the outside face and this will identify the seal. All seals are made by seal makers and bearing makers so that is the best place to look

I have a 1995 Subaru Legacy LSI and am replacing the seals on the power steering pump. How do I remove and replace the front seal on the power steering pump?

You would save yourself alot of headache to just get a new or rebuilt pump. But most ring seals can be replaced by taking off the pulley, then any retaining plate over the bearing/seal/shaft to expose the seal. Then pry out working around the seal with a seal pulling tool or small flat screwdriver. To install new seal, coat outer race and inner seal rubber of seal with a very thin coating of fresh motor oil, tap lightly around seal to get it started in seal cavity be sure it is even all the way around. Then get a socket or sleeve the same diameter as the outer diameter of the seal, place over the seal and tap it down gently until fully seated. Re-assemble casing and pulley.
