Hotpoint TC71 foam seal

Any calls on the part number for the sticky back foam seal that goes around the drum front opening.
Can’t find the number anywhere.

Cheers

It’s not available as a seperate part. The complete replacement Front Support Assy (Pt No 1701159) is require which comes with a new sticky- backed foam seal 🙄

I went to my first T/D of this range today.Same fault, Felt seal had come adrift and seized the drum I knew that the heater & stats came complete with the heater box but didn’t know the seal was not available as a spare. The Machine is 18 Mths old and other faults found:

Front panel not secured to to the side panel with correct sized screws
Motor fan fouling back panel
One bearing pad missing
Belt Fraying
Very Noisey.
All in all the biggest piece of junk I have ever come across

Well done hotmerloni
You have turned one of the best T/Ds (Creda) in to a pile off scrap

No wonder its hard to make a living in this game any more 👿

TC71 is a lot older than 18 months, it was either old stock or yours was a CTD, different model altogether. The stats have always been available on their own for TC range. The front panel is not secured with screws to the side panels in any shape or form, the side panels locate on three plastic pegs at the front and three screws at the back plus one underneath on TC models, on CTD models three screws at the back and one at the top front edge.

Must have been a later model then didn’t get mod number as I knew the job was a no no.
