Hotpoint WM door hinge

Aug 21, 2003 3 Replies

The hinge broke on my washing machine and when I took it off the backplate fell to the bottom of the inside - any tips for getting this out or do I need to turn the washer on it's side (arggggghhh)..



cheers

Can you release the door rubber on the outside, get a magnet and retrieve the bit? You will need access to the inner bit anyway, so that you can fit the new hinge.

Will give that a try - cheers

Does the rubber come off easy -

Just lean the washer backwards, you should be able to reach it on the ledge if it hasn't fallen on the floor.
