I believe that I have a wood screw which has got stuck between the drum and the tub. I have removed the belt drive from the back and tried to ease the drum by knocking the shaft thro the bearing but it is as stiff as before. Have also begun to undo the line of screws which hoild the two halves of the tub together to try and ease it that way but I suspect that the two halve are glued together. Do you have any ideas how I could remove the screw?
If the screw is small enough to move around between the drum and the outer casing then the best way is to physically lift the complete machine and tilt it towards the drain hole in the tub, this will get the screw down into the pump area or hoses where you can remove the hose clips and hopefully the screw. To find out where the drain hole is remove the back cover and follow the pipe work onto the drum casing. If the screw is jammed then you will have to remove the drum from the casing completely. Good luck, let me know how you get on

Zanussi FS1455W - The machine does not wash, even though it sounds as though it will begin washing, but then always goes to end. I've pressed all buttons but it always goes to end. What is happening and is there anything I can do. The machine is 7 years old.
