Hotpoint WM61P door hinge

[admin]

I recently managed to break the door off the washing machine! Whoops.

I located the correct replacement part and began to unscrew the hinge on the machine when I heard the inside nuts falling down inside the machine. This told me that in order to complete the repair i’d have to remove the front of the machine and probably get past the seal. I’ve had a wee look around the machine but can’t see an easy access point. There are three screws behind removabel panel at the bottom but i’ve a feeling there’s a lot more involved. Any advice on completing this repair would be much appreciated.

Best way is simply to unclip the door seal from the front panel, peel it back from its fixing enough to put your hand behind the front panel to pick up the hinge plate thats fallen on the chassis!

:plug: DO ENSURE YOU HAVE UN-PLUGGED THE MACHINE FIRST!!! :zap:
