Re: Zanussi ZWD12270W1 Replace Drum Paddle

For interest, I’ve managed to remove the old paddle, and am just waiting for the new one to come in the post.

By trial and error (and sticking my head into the drum with a torch) it appears that there are two metal lugs underneath the third hole in the paddle (counting from the drum entrance).

Just push a screwdriver through this hole and push the two lugs down a bit (one on the left, and one on the right). You can look through the hole and see that they are flat.

Then slide the paddle towards the front of the drum and squeeze the sides to remove it.

Thanks.

If the part just clips on though it would be much simpler (and actually much cheaper) for me to just swap it myself than take a day off work waiting for an engineer to visit.

Does anyone know whether I can just swap this paddle from the inside of the drum (e.g. by just clipping the new part in) or is it held by a screw from the other side of the drum?

Thanks

Steve
