Re: Hoover New Wave 1300 washer dryer door won’t open!

I thought that might be the way to do it!

I’ll give it a try, thanks again!

Hi Guys,

Thanks for both your replies.

Dave – I’ll have a look tonight but when I looked last night I couldn’t see a cover but I’ll give it a bash (not literally!).

Martin – thanks for that, that was my initial thought but couldn’t see any water in there but there may well be.

On newer machines you can remove the kick plate at the botom and drain them but no idea how to drain this model?? Is it just the pipes at the back?

Thanks a million any more guidance would be fantastic!

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I’ve no idea, as a washing machine novice I’ve no idea how to check.

ON newer washing machines I’ve sen there is usually an easy way to look inside but on the model I have just now there seems to be no easy way inside without unscrewing large parts (which I’m understandably uneasy about doing) of the machine.

I did try to put the load on a spin cycle to see if it was perhaps down to water not draining and although the machine seemed to ‘power up’ the drum didn’t mve.

Would this be consistant with the belt coming off? If so how easy is it to fix? Or would I need an engineer to do it?

Comments much appreciated – great website I have to say!
