Thank you so much for this video. Im a 52 year old woman and I have just saved myself about £450 by watching this video. Couldnt get the filter out, so took out the pump to find 5 nails 2 coins 2 bits of fabric plus all sorts of bits of plastic, gunk and the rest all clocking up the pump. All reinstated and now back working as normal. Thank you very much indeed, great video, simple and brilliant.
Thank you so very much! A bra wire had been stuck in the drum. I removed the heating element on a Miele and after much sweat, some tears and your inspiration I am pleased to tell: the machine is in full swing again! Could not have done it without you!
Great video. I can add one additional tip: if you remove one of the drum paddles (there are videos on how to do this) you will find that you can feed the fibre optic camera (also called an endoscope) through the mounting slots for the paddle, or you can shine a torch through one slot whilst looking directly, or with a mirror, through other slots, or even through the perforations in the drum, as you rotate the drum. Using this technique I found a key I was looking for, stuck in the entrance to the sump pipe, and I was then able to grab it with a pair of forceps and manoeuvre it out through one of the slots. This method has the advantage that you don't have to remove anything other than a drum paddle, most of which come off very easily when you know how, and if it doesn't work you still have all the techniques shown in this excellent video at your disposal.

Great comment about how the industry, like every other, profits from planned obsolescence forcing us into a cycle of needless consumption and waste.

I just fixed my washing machine 1 miute! It was totally stuck by a sock! Bless you and your videos. This is sec9nd time you helped me fix ...your videos are priceless and saved me a lot of money!
Endoscope camera is cheap and great method so is the coat hanger hook. Also, some of these cheap endoscope type cameras come with hooks and magnet attachments too. Thank u, a very nicely made easy to understand and detailed video.
Absolutely brilliant instructions. Was really apprehensive about attempting this having no experience in washing machine DIY. Have CDA integrated machine so wasn't sure if heating element in front or back. So tried front first, taking everything off, only to discover it was at the back. So pulled machine out, back off and hey presto there it was. 20 mins later, all removed and machine back in position. Many thanks for 5 star tutoring, saved me ££££'s in callout charge.
Very extensive yet useful information compared to other videos. You're also making it much easier to understand the disassembling, where to start and which steps are essential an must not be skipped if you're disassembling your machine anyway. It's nice to have this knowledge on hand now, not only to save money on repairs by a technician but also to make your machine last longer yourself. My washing machine hasn't been draining properly even though I checked the filter in the front and drained it manually through the small tube. Hopefully these instructions might resolve the issue, perhaps I'm able to retrieve some lost socks as well. Thanks in advance! I'm pretty sure this will do the trick for me as I'm going through the positive feedback in the comments🙂
Thank you so much for this video, it was really helpful. Just removed the heating element to retrieve an obstruction from under the drum …..it was a new £20 note, so more than a little chuffed. Thank you so much!
I watched about 4 repair videos to find out how to get a bra wire out of the machine. This was by far the best and I managed to fix my washing machine. Thank you
Very, helpful indeed. Saved me so much time as I was able to do the entire job on our Bosch Maxx 7 from the front. If I hadn't watched this first, I would have unnecessarily taken out the dryer that is on top, disconnected all the plumbing, taken the back off and then discovered my mistake!

You, good sir, just saved me buying a new washer. Very weird noise turned out to be a bra wire stuck between inner and outer drum. I removed the heating element, which i had trouble doing earlier, because i didnt know the loosen and tap trick. Thank you so much for the video!

Just watched your information demo and managed to unscrew the filter and found 2 hair clips and broken bra wire - fingers crossed as no other noise when spinning the empty drum.thank you
Excellent all done and now washing, mine is a Bosh front entry. Retrieved 4 bra wires as advised cleaned out the sump hoses which had some small bits of bra wire.
I was surprised by the portuguese SuperBock beer at the end of the video. Didn't know you had those in the UK. Greetings from Portugal and thank you for these tips.
I watched this video twice, after washing my partner's hearing aid by mistake and then it got stuck under the drum! I tried to grab it, but it fell under the drum - I later learned I had pulled it apart. I tried the vacuum in the hose behind the trap - and managed to suck out the battery but not the other (very expensive) electronic processor. After the repair company I used before never called back, I decided to be brave, take out the Phillips screwdriver and unscrew the ring and pull off the big black (sump?) hose at the base of the drum accessible on our LG HE compact washer from the bottom front panel. I managed to get my phone up the hole and take a few pics to see where this thing was. Then I reached in and felt around with my fingers and grabbed that expensive sound processor part! Then I poked around at the location where pictures showed hook around the ear part had hooked onto something - and I got that too. Then I carefully replaced the black hose and screwed the ring on tight and ran a load. So thanks for saving me $350.00 which is what they charged me the last time to replace the $20 motor (NYC prices). THANKS SO MUCH!

Your video is probably one of the best I've seen on UA-cam, informative, easy to follow and full of good tips. I found a piece of Lego! My problem now is that, although its all neatly back together, the drum's stopped working; it spins by hand and the machine buzzes but it seems to have lost its powe... advice needed please!

Thank you for your videos, really helpful and i just found a couple holes in my plastiuc drum enclosure... so will get the soldering gun and hope I can save my washing machine... and maybe the girlfriend will finally learn to check pockets before doing the laundry!!
Suddenly our Siemens IQ700 WM started making a racket when it was going into spin mode. Paused it removed the clothes and found nothing. when turning around the drum there was something moving inside but no big asymmetry when it spun. put in small batch and spun them to dry still with the noise. the second batch went smooth. thought the trouble passed over. After a day or two put another set for washing and near about end of spin cycle the noise reappeared and it suddenly went quiet like something was thrown out. i guessed something is wrong and in my search came cross your video. From your video I realized it could be a costly affair to not to check the machine. opened up the heater and found a ton of lint, threads clinging to the heater. no metal objects inside though. then opened up the drain pump and lo perhaps the culprits were there. few cloth tags, a couple of plastic collar tabs of my shirts and small tooth picks left in the pockets (to press lift buttons in these covid days). cleared them up and the machine is smooth now for two cycles. hope it would It saved me near to 100 GBP to the service man. thank you very much.

Excellent video bit scary opening up a Washing Machineif your a novice but I did change my oven heating element based on your video so may try this this as well.Cheers:)
Very good video. My machine is the Bosch Maxx Comfort WFR 2840. It has a panel on the bottom so it is difficult to access from the bottom. I've removed a wire that was jamming the pump filter. Than I've try to check if there was not any other in the drum checking through the heater door. Unfortunately wile I was trying to taking the wires out I have pulled out the NTC probe. Can I put it again and expect that the large rubber gasket do his job or should I put something in it in order to avoid any leakage?
Thank you. My machine is a Zanussi, but once I managed to work out how to get the back off I was able to follow your instructions to remove the heating element and found an offending bra wire.

thank you very very much. Paul. it's so helpful video. I have 2 questions :1-what the goal of the ball inside the drain hose? 2-how to test the NTC senser if the washing machine isn't heating?
It serves a few purposes If your washing machine was connected to the sink unit this ball with stop drainage water entering the drum, therefore stopping bad odours. The next is to keep the detergent in the drum.On a start sequence the washing machine fills with water and the ball seals the drum of by floating to the top this will show you how a ntc sensor works www.how-to-repair.com/help/how-a-ntc-sensor-works-on-a-washing-machine/ Iam Glad we could help you Please remember to subscribe to our channel ua-cam.com/users/Apart4u Remember to Shop with www.how-to-repair.com and it would help us by posting the video or website on your timeline.

Great information 👍 BUT WHY ARN'T WE TOLD ABOUT THIS BEFORE WE BUY FRONT LOADERS??? I have done extensive reasearch on front Loaders!! Couldn't find any information in any manuals? Even sales people have stated they have NEVER HEARD OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. Thank you.
Most of the manufacturers of only interested in selling you the appliance in the first place they let you worry about the problem later this is not always good for the environment or for the customer's pocket I'm sorry you had to find out the hard way

absolutely brilliant!!! thank you so much for this video ... there was a ruddy sock wedged in the sump. I went in from the bottom of the washing machine, as you recommended. Easy-peasy! Unclipped the thingy-majiggy hose and removed the sock ... washing machine works like clock work now! Thank you VERY much. Can I buy you a pint Bruv? I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Best wishes for 2022 & stay well Bruv.
Great video, thanks. I'm still chasing a noise in my GE front loader that sounds like a like "scrunch/ticking" sound. It's had the noise now for a while (over a year) and seems to be slowly getting worse, but there's no slop at all in the tub bearings. Wonder if I should take the belt off and spin it to see if it's the motor? Thanks again, really appreciate the time you put into the video.

I’ve had my Hotpoint in bits following this video. Took out heater element, sump etc had sink unblocked all over the drum to check for a stray sock etc but can’t find a darn thing but it’s noisy on spin and if you spin the drum by hand you can feel resistance randomly nothing lodged in door or between rubber and metal and can see drum through hole where element goes and totally clear. I’m at a loss, any ideas :)
I just recovered a couple of my bank cards I lost when I accidentally washed my wallet in the machine. I used a long strong T-wrap and attached duck tape to the end of the T-wrap by wrapping the sticky side onto the t-wrap and then flipping the sticky side by rotating the tape so that the sticky side is facing outward, then wrap around a couple of times and tear off leaving a little slack to cover the top of the t-wrap. I inserted this fishing mechanism in between the two drums and using a flashlight I positioned the tape so to make contact with the card. press down gently and wait until you see the card attach to it (as you lift out the t-wrap the card should emerge between the drums)Then with a tweezer I pinched the edge of the card and pulled it out. Sorry, no videos. you may need to position the light in the right angle to see where the card is, you can usually see a reflection of the card of the side of the drum. HOPE this helps someone rescue their lost cards.
Can you do us a favour and please share this video on your timeline Facebook twitter etc . This will help other people who can’t get engineers out to help them. ua-cam.com/video/rFyGAHVFUW8/v-deo.html&t facebook.com/how.to.repair.appliances/ Stay safe
They may weld it because a machine can do that while a human has to be Installed by human hand. Also it makes they dryer last far less than if it was screwed in making more money for the company when you are forced to now purchase another dryer years earlier. Great video stay safe!
Hi, thank you for a very detailed and helpful video. But I have som question. My family and I assume there is a bra wire stuck somewhere between the inner and outer drum. But we are not 100% sure. There are some clicking or kind of "hitting" sound that can be heard during the ending centrifuging at high speed. But it doesn't always have that sound. Sometimes it just runs without any special sound or problem. So where do you think the problem exist? Is there something stuck around the drum? Do we need to remove the heating element or?
Thank you. Does it happen a lot? Clothes getting stuk in the drum? We have a brand New machine. Last week it suddenly became a bit hard to turn the drum, but it is fine now. I can't find anything stuck either. Should I have someone check my machine up to be sure? Thank you for all your help ❤️
Items can get stuck in the drum if the machine is overloaded especially babies clothing. Thanks please remember to subscribe as that's is was keeps this channel going. Thanks 👍

Great video! I just need to ask a question. I have a denka washing machine ..i removed all the screws but the front part wont get off completely. The upper side of the front isn’t going off obly lower area. And there are no visible screws. Why is that?
I've tried correcting my high speed spinning cycle Samsung front end 2014 washing machine. Cking with multi-meter the drain pump/cleaning filter and pump, replacing door lock switch. Still the high speed spinning cycle does not work. Any pointers out there? Your videos are very helpful.
Hey thanks for the video. Any tips for a Bosch Wash Dryer 24/7 Exxcel. Filter cap is stuck but there is no bottom clip, just a small round one. Struggling to remove the whole body of the unit!
I have a bra wire stuck in my washer somewhere. It only made a noise at the end when it was spinning fast. I took the back off but I didn't see a heating element, so I guess it must be at the front. I'm too scared to remove the front panel and everything in case I can't put it all back lol oh crap -_-

Great video. I can add one additional tip: if you remove one of the drum paddles (there are videos on how to do this) you will find that you can feed the fibre optic camera (also called an endoscope) through the mounting slots for the paddle, or you can shine a torch through one slot whilst looking directly, or with a mirror, through other slots, or even through the perforations in the drum, as you rotate the drum. Using this technique I found a key I was looking for, stuck in the entrance to the sump pipe, and I was then able to grab it with a pair of forceps and manoeuvre it out through one of the slots. This method has the advantage that you don't have to remove anything other than a drum paddle, most of which come off very easily when you know how, and if it doesn't work you still have all the techniques shown in this excellent video at your disposal.

Very weird noise turned out to be a bra wire stuck between inner and outer drum. I removed the heating element, which i had trouble doing earlier, because i didnt know the loosen and tap trick. Thank you so much for the video!
Iam Glad we could help you

how-2-repair.com hi where is the link for the socket wrench please.Cheers:)
I am so thankful for people like you. I would have no idea!
Thank you very much !! I just took out bra wire by myself. Your instructions are very clear. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you very much for making the effort of showing us all how to repair.
Just watched your information demo and managed to unscrew the filter and found 2 hair clips and broken bra wire - fingers crossed as no other noise when spinning the empty drum.thank you
Hi, do you know what the name of the tool at 8.53 is? Many thanks
Great videos ive been repairing for 24 years and ive learnt some bits
Great video. I’ve learned a lot. So carefully explained. Probably just about anyone can do it now without needing a professional. Thank you
Followed your video and got the pump out, unblocked it and put it back together. Thank you
This chap just saved me a lot of money I don’t really have. 1 pint of beer is on its way 😉👍
Excellent all done and now washing, mine is a Bosh front entry. Retrieved 4 bra wires as advised cleaned out the sump hoses which had some small bits of bra wire.
Thanks we have sorted it!! a piece of glass stuck in the manual drain x
I was surprised by the portuguese SuperBock beer at the end of the video. Didn't know you had those in the UK. Greetings from Portugal and thank you for these tips.
I watched this video twice, after washing my partner's hearing aid by mistake and then it got stuck under the drum! I tried to grab it, but it fell under the drum - I later learned I had pulled it apart. I tried the vacuum in the hose behind the trap - and managed to suck out the battery but not the other (very expensive) electronic processor. After the repair company I used before never called back, I decided to be brave, take out the Phillips screwdriver and unscrew the ring and pull off the big black (sump?) hose at the base of the drum accessible on our LG HE compact washer from the bottom front panel. I managed to get my phone up the hole and take a few pics to see where this thing was. Then I reached in and felt around with my fingers and grabbed that expensive sound processor part! Then I poked around at the location where pictures showed hook around the ear part had hooked onto something - and I got that too. Then I carefully replaced the black hose and screwed the ring on tight and ran a load. So thanks for saving me $350.00 which is what they charged me the last time to replace the $20 motor (NYC prices). THANKS SO MUCH!
Iam Glad we could help you.

@@How-to-repair done! you saved us around $350 for a NYC repair call.
Your video is probably one of the best I've seen on UA-cam, informative, easy to follow and full of good tips. I found a piece of Lego! My problem now is that, although its all neatly back together, the drum's stopped working; it spins by hand and the machine buzzes but it seems to have lost its powe... advice needed please!
one must also put back the driving belt correctly,
My machine still dose not work
Thank you for the video. Have you considered using a telescopic magnet rather than a hook screwdriver for retreiving the debris from under the drum.
Your a very good teacher

Took my heater off, following your video and found 2x20p pieces in the drum.......Thank You
very helpful video.thx. my washing machine just started to make a noise just when its on the spin cycle
Suddenly our Siemens IQ700 WM started making a racket when it was going into spin mode. Paused it removed the clothes and found nothing. when turning around the drum there was something moving inside but no big asymmetry when it spun. put in small batch and spun them to dry still with the noise. the second batch went smooth. thought the trouble passed over. After a day or two put another set for washing and near about end of spin cycle the noise reappeared and it suddenly went quiet like something was thrown out.
i guessed something is wrong and in my search came cross your video. From your video I realized it could be a costly affair to not to check the machine.
opened up the heater and found a ton of lint, threads clinging to the heater. no metal objects inside though. then opened up the drain pump and lo perhaps the culprits were there. few cloth tags, a couple of plastic collar tabs of my shirts and small tooth picks left in the pockets (to press lift buttons in these covid days). cleared them up and the machine is smooth now for two cycles. hope it would

Andrew, what is the name of the tool at 8.53 please? Much appreciation.
Really useful video, thank you. Saved me a lot of trouble.
Thanks We now have Live Q@A's weekly on our live Show , see our home page ua-cam.com/users/How-2-repair for the next date
Excellent video bit scary opening up a Washing Machineif your a novice but I did change my oven heating element based on your video so may try this this as well.Cheers:)
You just saved our machine 😀
Very good video.
My machine is the Bosch Maxx Comfort WFR 2840. It has a panel on the bottom so it is difficult to access from the bottom.
I've removed a wire that was jamming the pump filter. Than I've try to check if there was not any other in the drum checking through the heater door.
Unfortunately wile I was trying to taking the wires out I have pulled out the NTC probe. Can I put it again and expect that the large rubber gasket do his job or should I put something in it in order to avoid any leakage?
I like how you use screwdrivers & ratchets and no power tool use
Proper old school haha
Thank you! Going to try this. And hopefully I can wash again today. 😊
Your video helped so much washing machine is working great. Thank you so much.
Very clear, loved it.
Thank you. My machine is a Zanussi, but once I managed to work out how to get the back off I was able to follow your instructions to remove the heating element and found an offending bra wire.
Thanks for your kind explanation. I find it very useful and helpful. I hope tha ti can put my machine in good order, Thanks Max Rathore

Very Clear and Nice information. Thanks for Upload ... Cheers
thank you very much for the clear instructions!
love this washer the sliver bosch maxx washer is a wfl2450
thank you very very much. Paul. it's so helpful video. I have 2 questions :1-what the goal of the ball inside the drain hose?
2-how to test the NTC senser if the washing machine isn't heating?
It serves a few purposes
If your washing machine was connected to the sink unit this ball with stop drainage water entering the drum, therefore stopping bad odours. The next is to keep the detergent in the drum.On a start sequence the washing machine fills with water and the ball seals the drum of by floating to the top
this will show you how a ntc sensor works www.how-to-repair.com/help/how-a-ntc-sensor-works-on-a-washing-machine/

Great information 👍 BUT WHY ARN'T WE TOLD ABOUT THIS BEFORE WE BUY FRONT LOADERS??? I have done extensive reasearch on front Loaders!! Couldn't find any information in any manuals? Even sales people have stated they have NEVER HEARD OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. Thank you.
Most of the manufacturers of only interested in selling you the appliance in the first place they let you worry about the problem later this is not always good for the environment or for the customer's pocket I'm sorry you had to find out the hard way
very good video.
thanx bro, bra wire, couldn't have done this without you, ian
I might add that a telescoping magnet can be handy for getting screws. Also, for my fellow Americans, torch = flashlight.
Clear Video. Very Good! Question, is there a way to know, from the outside and/or manufacturers, if you have bought a sealed drum or not?
Invaluable information, thank you so much!!!!
thanks,,, this was of great help to me

Excellent video indeed.
My Siemens m/c appears to hv a coat of scale from water.Is there a method to clean it.
absolutely brilliant!!! thank you so much for this video ... there was a ruddy sock wedged in the sump. I went in from the bottom of the washing machine, as you recommended. Easy-peasy! Unclipped the thingy-majiggy hose and removed the sock ... washing machine works like clock work now! Thank you VERY much. Can I buy you a pint Bruv? I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Best wishes for 2022 & stay well Bruv.

Great video, thanks. I'm still chasing a noise in my GE front loader that sounds like a like "scrunch/ticking" sound. It's had the noise now for a while (over a year) and seems to be slowly getting worse, but there's no slop at all in the tub bearings. Wonder if I should take the belt off and spin it to see if it's the motor?
Thanks again, really appreciate the time you put into the video.
Its probably a coin or a bra wire... i hope by now you fixed your washer and dryer , cheers mate
you are such a great help, i shall be buying you some beers

Hi sir very nice explanation n thanks for video
I’ve had my Hotpoint in bits following this video. Took out heater element, sump etc had sink unblocked all over the drum to check for a stray sock etc but can’t find a darn thing but it’s noisy on spin and if you spin the drum by hand you can feel resistance randomly nothing lodged in door or between rubber and metal and can see drum through hole where element goes and totally clear. I’m at a loss, any ideas :)
Very good video ... and very clear ...
I already opened the heating element. but when i tried to install it back, it's really hard. I couldn't do that. I already use detergent.
your great you explain what why where as it should be thankyou
Hi,can u help me out rgding my front load washing machine?
*you're
I see him like doctor doing a surgery and saving a machine's life 😂 and save our pocket,.
thank you and ...use a antena with a magnet for screws...
Thanks man!
It was so helpful.
thanks, thats really helpful, just the info i need
I just recovered a couple of my bank cards I lost when I accidentally washed my wallet in the machine. I used a long strong T-wrap and attached duck tape to the end of the T-wrap by wrapping the sticky side onto the t-wrap and then flipping the sticky side by rotating the tape so that the sticky side is facing outward, then wrap around a couple of times and tear off leaving a little slack to cover the top of the t-wrap. I inserted this fishing mechanism in between the two drums and using a flashlight I positioned the tape so to make contact with the card. press down gently and wait until you see the card attach to it (as you lift out the t-wrap the card should emerge between the drums)Then with a tweezer I pinched the edge of the card and pulled it out. Sorry, no videos. you may need to position the light in the right angle to see where the card is, you can usually see a reflection of the card of the side of the drum. HOPE this helps someone rescue their lost cards.
Thank you, love this video , helped me so much

Stay safe
They may weld it because a machine can do that while a human has to be Installed by human hand. Also it makes they dryer last far less than if it was screwed in making more money for the company when you are forced to now purchase another dryer years earlier.
Great video stay safe!
Hi, thank you for a very detailed and helpful video. But I have som question.
My family and I assume there is a bra wire stuck somewhere between the inner and outer drum. But we are not 100% sure.
There are some clicking or kind of "hitting" sound that can be heard during the ending centrifuging at high speed. But it doesn't always have that sound. Sometimes it just runs without any special sound or problem.
So where do you think the problem exist? Is there something stuck around the drum? Do we need to remove the heating element or?
Thank you. Does it happen a lot? Clothes getting stuk in the drum? We have a brand New machine. Last week it suddenly became a bit hard to turn the drum, but it is fine now. I can't find anything stuck either. Should I have someone check my machine up to be sure?
Thank you for all your help ❤️
Items can get stuck in the drum if the machine is overloaded especially babies clothing. Thanks please remember to subscribe as that's is was keeps this channel going. Thanks 👍

Great video! I just need to ask a question. I have a denka washing machine ..i removed all the screws but the front part wont get off completely. The upper side of the front isn’t going off obly lower area. And there are no visible screws. Why is that?
Great, Your video is very useful.
I've tried correcting my high speed spinning cycle Samsung front end 2014 washing machine. Cking with multi-meter the drain pump/cleaning filter and pump, replacing door lock switch. Still the high speed spinning cycle does not work. Any pointers out there?
Your videos are very helpful.
Hey thanks for the video. Any tips for a Bosch Wash Dryer 24/7 Exxcel. Filter cap is stuck but there is no bottom clip, just a small round one. Struggling to remove the whole body of the unit!
I have a bra wire stuck in my washer somewhere. It only made a noise at the end when it was spinning fast. I took the back off but I didn't see a heating element, so I guess it must be at the front. I'm too scared to remove the front panel and everything in case I can't put it all back lol oh crap -_-
