Sorry, Suggested Retail Price.

If you have hassles with it drop Dave a line on spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk and he can get you one, probably cheaper.

Thanks Kwatt I have the part on the way I got it from Dave at Spare and it cost £22.90 including postage. Now I hope it is easy to fit when it gets here.."The time is always right to do what is right"0

No probs, we usually beat the SRP's one way or another.

Door locks are normally pretty straightforward to change, just unclip the door seal at the front as it makes life a lot easier and remember to pull the plug out.

My OH was so cross when our washing machine door wouldn't open, he hacksawed the lock off completely and fitted a standard bolt instead! It looked really naf, but it meant we never had any more problems with the washing machine door again (it was a Hotpoint, by the way).
OH said there was no way the washing machine was going to stop him from getting his clothes out - he just wasn't having it!!
