remove front panel on Hotpoint Washing Machine HV7L145

[Anne]

I am half way through replacing a door seal on my Hotpoint washer. Having problems with taking off the front panel which seems to be welded on. Where are the screws?

If you stick the full model number in here:

you may be able to get a service manual.

A long time since I?ve changed one but I believe it?s usually done by removing the top of the machine, not the front.

Putting ?door seal? and your make and model into YouTube will also very likely bring up a step by step guide. Even if you can?t find your exact model, the general principles will be the same across many machines.

Yup, I think last time I did one you did not need to remove any casing, although it was less fiddly if you took the door itself off.
