Beko DRCS68W

Anyone done a front bearing replacement on these condenser dryer?

Whats involved?

Looks like a major strip down!

Cheers

good luck with that one

best way is to leave the drum attatched to the back panel, unhook the belt and take aways the drum and back panel complete

not hard, just time consuming

Re: Beko DRCS68W

for the record, i have done 10 plus of these…allow 2 hours for first one…basically the biggest problem is the little screw right at the bottom of the duct which can only be accessed by removing drum,backplate, motor and complete condensor duct!!!!!……on the vented on, it aint bad as u just remove motor!!!…back to the condensor version i have use the following cheat depending how brave u r!!!

remove:

drum and backplate complete
remove door and take out duct screws from front
remove all connectors and wiring to duct
with machine on side, remove all condensor duct screws from underneath
now the duct is loose you have a bit of play with the duct, bend downwards and snap in a sideways motion quite voilently a couple of times…this snaps the screw mount and the duct comes out
you can then look down break the remaining plastic and remove screw!

i now it sounds dodgy, but it works so well……and saves about 1 hour

good luck !!!
