Is it time to think about replacing the door hinge on your tumble dryers or washing machine? This door hinge fits a number of different Hotpoint and Creda tumble dryers and washing machines, please make sure that this component will fit your machine prior to ordering.

eSpares Tip: Safety first, switch off and unplug all major appliances prior to working on them. Banish limescale, calcium deposits in your washing machine can make it less efficient and shorten the life of your washing machine.

How to fit the washing machine hinge:

"To save you having to take the front off: remove one screw, then push in with your right hand through the seal to keep the backplate in place and remove the other screw. A quick switch of hinge and job done."

How to fit the washing machine hinge:

"When fitting this hinge, do not just remove screws as hinge backplate will fall into machine. You are able to hold the backplate from inside the drum by pushing on the seal. Get someone else to support the door when removing or refitting then you can easily put the screws in or out."
