After watching the video guide on how to remove the old and fit the new door gasket, all seemed fairly clear, except when I tried to remove the top panel and the front door and panel, as I struggled slightly. The video was very good overall, but it did not explain that I had to slide the top panel towards the back of the machine, and slide the door and front panel upwards, in order to remove both items from their fixings. It was more by luck and a bit of judgement that I managed to remove these two items without causing any damage. But generally I am very satisfied.
One other item which was a bit tricky was replacing the plastic giant 'C' clip around the door seal and locking it in place. I was trying to do the impossible by pushing the clip too far into the face of the drum, not realising that the right angled shoulder of the plastic clip only needs to fit just around the gasket to the door panel, I then found that the two free ends would slot into each other without too much force.
The job's a goodun, Mick.
