Re: Dispenser door for Hotpoint BWM129

Thanks for that kwatt – saved me a few quid, although as you point out, still outrageous that the door cannot be bought without the panel.

Have you taken one of these panels of before? It looks as though you just pull the knobs off, remove the two screws by the dispenser, and then the panel prises off, but be useful to know if I’m missing anything here.

Many thanks
Jon

Re: Dispenser door for Hotpoint BWM129

Thanks folks,

helo_77, I found this (http://www.espares.co.uk/part/washing-m … e-con.html), which is the control panel with dispenser door. Looks like a bit of a scam, if you have to buy a whole new control panel just to replace the dispenser door. Have you replaced one of these before? I can see two very accessible screws on the left hand side of the panel, but not sure whethere there is anything holding it in on the right. I’m a bit apprehensive about doing it myself, if it involves any re-wiring or disconnecting electrical components, but otherwise, it looks straightforward.
