    Re: Door seal spring loop replacement trick

    Thanks bzz67

    Took the top off and the missus kept it in place through the top while I fed the spring down and around-only took 5 mins.

    Treating her indoors to a curry tonight-it’s a great day even though it’s raining!

    Cheers

    Thanks to all who have responded.
    Doesn’t it feel damn good when you bring a dead machine back to life.

    Having bought a new door interlock and fitted, still no joy – checked all PCBs for burn outs or loose connections – checked all wiring for fractures-still no magic finds.

    On examining the locking claw on the door, I felt it was a bit adrift, so I split the door down and discovered that the pivot that holds the claw in place was held at one end only.

    On reassembly – PERFECT – the door caught properly and the machine knows its shut and the world is wonderful again.

    Curry tonight! and to think I was just about to lash out on a new Miele or Ise-maybe next time

    Thanks again guys

    Hi

    Have had the Indesit for 18 months and previously had a Hotpoint Acquarius for 4 years when the drum bearings went-bought new bearings but impossible to extract duff bearings without wrecking the drum – built to break!
