  Good video, but washer drier WD62 a little more tricky to do 06 March 2012

  When unscrewing the bracket from the front panel, the internal metal screw insert at the back of the panel fell inside the machine, as it is not attached to the machine. We therefore had to dismantle the top and front panels to gain access to find the metal insert, i.e. we had to follow the video instructions on how to replace the door seal. To prevent this happening, loosen the door seal at the front and place one hand behind the hinge inside the machine to catch the insert as the hinge is unscrewed. The plastic inserts on the door that hold the end pins of the hinge in place do not flip up on this model, as shown on the video. The two plastic pieces have to be eased off gently by inserting a small flat screwdriver at the base. Took longer, but got there in the end with a little patience and it was worth a try.

  replacement hinge 12 March 2011

  This is the second replacement, either the design is poor, or the metal used is weak, but the hinge is fragile and prone to early failure
