    The BOTTOM metal panel not the front plastic plinth. You have to lay the machine on its back, as I mentioned earlier!

    The new ‘drum lifters’ are modified and are held in place by a stainless steel screw. The old type are simply slid and clipped into place. They very easily get loosened as a result. To remove the old type you have to put a screwdriver through the 4th hole from the front to bend the metal latching tabs clear. Then slide the lifter forward and out.

    The modified lifters (Part no : 50252271007) are screwed in place but access to the screw is via removal of the large sump hose under the machine. Tricky to access for the beginner, but hey you’ll enjoy the challenge I’m sure. 8)

    No surprises there then so far……. 😉

    Are you perhaps looking at the salt container maybe?

    Re: Whirlpool to do a recall on Hotpoint dryers

    A simple, more effective ‘mod’ that is never ever going to be troubled by lint and solves the problem of the lint on filter scenario is to simply replace the heater unit. And fit in its place the infra red type (for example, as used in the Whirlpool and the Slovenian made Bosch dryer).

    They only give out ‘black heat’ and heat convection is increased thanks to the use of metal fins surrounding the element coil. There is sufficient space in the existing ducting to accommodate the slightly larger space required for this type of heater.

    It makes me chuckle to think that Whirlpool concentrated on solely eliminating lint build up on the existing style heater. When what they should have fitted is the type of heater they have use for years so effectively on their own brand of dryer.

    Oh the comedy of it all…!

    Oh dear another YouTube video…… 😕

    No my friend, not the same machine at all. Power unplugged. Lay it on its back (not front or sides but on its back!) Remove metal base panel and ALL will be revealed. 😀

    Perhaps get Alice Beer to stop by here to get here facts straight before she goes on air? And an on-screen caption during the report stating : Facts supplied by the lads @ UKWhitegoods. 💡 💡

    If there’s no sign of the wire band then the door boot such easily unhook from its front panel. It takes longer to type a reply to you than unhook it TBH.

    The plastic base under the machine is flooded and the anti-flood switch has been automatically activated. You’ve got an internal leak somewhere!

    Re: Which brand of appliances is best for new kitchen

    Those brands are fine whatever choice you make IMO. Though single ovens are very very limiting in size and whatever make you choose you will be disappointed. (e.g Often only come with only one shelf. No grill pan or handle. Can’t grill with door open etc etc) But if that oven is intended to go under the countertop then opt for a Stoves Double Oven instead. Slots in under the counter yet above the plinth. Has 2 telescopic oven shelves. A proper grill pan with handle. Full double oven functionality for the same price as a tiny Neff single oven. AND it’s made in the UK…!

    They shouldn’t be loose and many are tricky to sort. You might give us the PNC number of the appliance ((look on the inner door for it) and we can find out more useful information for you!

    Probably the ‘operating module’ (00264229) is at fault.

    From what info you give does suggest the switch is at fault. They are not difficult to replace.

    Start us off firstly by stating the model number (ENR) of your machine. 💡

    The thermal trip has gone on the safety stat fitted on the side of the heater box. And the condenser box on the RHSide is blocked with fluff. You’ll need to removed the bottom corrugated hose to gain access and throughly clean it out!
