Two washing machines eh? Blimey both Hotpoint, oh dear!
Anyway, bearings not brushes cause noises. And if you take the belt off then spin the drum by hand it should be silent. My guess is that it will rumble like jungle drums. Give it a spin and see….! 😀
Lol no not got another machine. Its my mate who now have the noise after a year!
My washing machine in kitchen is hoover washer/dryer. Got locking issue.
Found that mate’s machine drum is welded bearing! Oh dear!! Hes scrapping it cos he wont pay 200 for new part!!
What can i do about hoover washer/dryer? New handle been fitted, now have to bang door to get it to lock to start wash!
Hoover we already got for 3 years. Only issue the handle broke so i replaced it, now i have to bang door several times to get machine to lock door for the wash,
Hotpoint i acquired cos it was cheap and i figured it’ll be faulty waste pump, i was right! Its sorted,
2nd hotpoint isnt mine. Its my mate who had it for just over a year. Now bearings gone. Not me who have both hotpoints! Lol
