I have a Hotpoint Ultima 1200 washing machine with a broken hinge but I have difficulty removing the hinge bearings. Do I simply remove the five screws holding the font panel to release these bearings. I did this but something seems to be holding the two doors panels together and I don't want to fotrce anything.
Remove all the screws securing the 2 door halves together, and gently prize apart the two halves with a screwdriver or similar, be careful not to drop the door glass.. You will probably be better off removing the door from the front of the m/c altogether.
Replace broken parts as req'd.
Plz rate my solution
Thanks.
Hi there,
First of all remove the door from the machine by unscrewing the
screws on the hinge than remove
clip at the top of door seal, when it unclips remove metal band, pull front of
door seal off of front panel, Pick up metal bracket. Now with the hinge attached
to door hold in place and place bracket behind the two holes fit screws and
then fit the seal and clip.
Regards

Thanks - this gave me the confidence to prize the two halves apart once I had recemoved the screws. I was afraid there was something else holding the two parts together.
