- Specifically the Samsung WD8704EJA model but I am sure there are many cross overs with other brands and models. I also had to manually release the door with washing inside but did not make a video of that. I can answer questions if required.
The website I got the handle from is spares.bigwarehouse.com.au/pr... - Jak na to + styl

Just want to say a huge thank you.
I was minutes away from ordering a new washing machine because of the same problem, until I discovered your video.
I have just replaced the damaged handle at a cost of £6.
God bless CZcamsrs like yourself
Thank you sir! We needed to fix for a client and we were struggling for an hour, and then we saw your video and we did it in 10 minutes! You are a legend!👏👏👏
You are a lifesaver my friend. I didt have a clue where to position the little black spring before I watched this.
The Samsung WF8704RSW is exactly the same but the white plastic door rim comes off very easily. Many thanks - You've done everyone a big favour. In replacing the prongs of the spring, I found it easiest to put the upper one in first. (Coincidentally, the video was even more authentic as your floor tiles are identical to mine.)
Saved me £93 .Bought a new handle from espares for £7. Local service center quoted £100 to do the same job. Thanks for giving me confidence to do it. Job took about 30 minutes.
Samsung handle broke, just like in the video. Repairman quoted me AUD320 to repair and replace.
Bought the new handle online for $25. Net saving after watching this video….AUD295. Thanks for posting this!!!
Merci pour tout les details je galerais a remettre le crochet pendant 30mn j ai matté des vidéos je voyais rien j ai fait une pause douche posé et je suis tombée sur votre vidéo et c est claire nette et précis image et geste a l appui merci du fond du coeur je viens de monter ma poignee a l instant grâce à vous je vous en remercie demain tournée de machine toute la journée j ai un moi de lessive a rattraper 😂😂😂😂 prenez soin de vous 😘😘😘 marém du côté de lyon
Thank you very very much! After an hour of trying to figure out why it was not working, I found your video and fixt it in a few minutes!
As a suggestion too ... put a basket of dirty washing underneath the glass before unscrewing the metallic looking cover. It caught mine as it fell out.
Thank you so much! I needed exactly this to understand how to get my washing machine open when the handle snapped after it finished a cycle! If anyone else needs that bit of information, slip a string around the door, and pull it to the left to unhook the latch
you hero
You absolute genius, thank you
Oh man you're a lifesaver!
I tried this 20x these past 12 hours and it doesn't work :(
You sir are a goddamn legend!!!! Exactly what I needed to read after trying for 15 mins with pliers
Thanks so much for this - you saved me $150 and it took three minutes! Great job and all the best.
Thank you! I was having problem installing the spring with the latch! You nailed it in this video! 🎩
You are a star! A big thank you! No words to express my gratitude! 👏🏻👏🏻
Very good video and made me a hero in the house. The part was $17 plus shipping too, although that was in NZ via Trademe. Thanks again!
This video was perfect advice. I had to do exactly this with my Samsung WF9904RWE and all of the steps were spot on. :)
Great tip and reminder at 5:25. I couldn't work out why my door wasn't looking. Cheers for that!
No other video showed how to get to spring tension back, thank you!!

Great video agreed 100 %. I'm at the spring part now and can only manage to get one side loaded - using plyers - any tips?/
that's a massive help, and give me the confidence to order the spare and repair myself, thanks
Thank you so much, it seems simple but there are many possibilities to combine the parts once disassembled :D
amazing, now I can fix any dishwasher I need. thank you olaf.
I replaced one of these last week. I ordered the latch from Amazon for £5.00. My problem was getting the door to open as the door was closed when it broke. I took off every panel to try and unlock the door. I managed to manually unlatch it in the end but it was an ordeal. Changing this part took about ten minutes, I took the whole door off so I could do it on a flat surface.
Excellent video, well detailed! Super helped me!
Excellent, thanks. Same mechanism for model WF8800RPF (which Samsung deny any knowledge of) and part DC64-01524A.
Thank you for this, worked!
Thank you for the clear instructions :)
Thanks mate!!! Really helpful your video.
Thank you so much great video fixed my Mums Samsung machine got the part and saved her £75
pounds which I think is 127 Australian dollars
Worked a treat, well done.
toddjoe123 glad I could help
Yesterday I replaced the broken handle of my Samsung washing machine. Samsung distributor in my country sells spare parts with a very expensive price where the new handle cost 16 USD.
Thanks useful. I had a different washing machine but the principals are the same. The spring is the fiddly bit. Cheers.
Top Bloke, I had the spring coils the wrong way round 'till I saw this !
Thank you so much for the instruction. You made my husband's day! ;-)

Thanks for the video!! Im struggling to get out the spring which its not recorded, any tips?
Thank you! Helped me a lot!
Thanks a lot. This was it. Worked well.
Thank you! Helped me a lot.
Great video. I need to replace the part that the handle sits inside as the bits that the spring clips into snapped. I can't seem to pop it out I can see it has x4 tabs but been trying and trying but can't get it out. Any ideas ?
Great video 👍🏻
Thanks for your help
Many thanks! It was very useful
Hi mate, great video and thanks for sharing! How did you remove the pin holding the spring tensioners that holds the latch? Cheers
Thanks for sharing and really detailed Video. I have replaced door handle successfully as shown. The handle was broken as yours. However, a new problem appeared after replacement. The door now cannot be closed. When closing door I cannot hear the “click” sound and door is not closed properly and machine don’t start. Anyone have the same problem before and have a solution? I’m guessing the door lock is too old and new door handle is too spring-ie so the lock cannot click into place?
Hi, just wondering, if you could guid e me on how to fix beko WMY 8046 LB2 door latch please. I cannot see any screws in the door to open it, so that i could fix it.
Thank you! 🙏🏻🙋♂️👍🏻
Perfect, very useful vedio
thank you, it worked!
Obrigado
Very helpful... Thanks
@olafolaffsonn The spring on my washer broke that holds the door handle does it matter what spring i get?
My Samsung washer handle just broke. I manage to pry out the plastic handle and released the latch. I'll need to order a replacement handle. Looking at it closely, it so stupid of the designer that the mechanism that holds on to the metal hook is ....plastic. Of course it'll snap over time.
I know how to replace catch ,,,how did you get door open to start with?
Hi What type of screwdriver did you use to take off the case please
So 👍🏼 good ..thanks
Hi ... have same problem with front load washing machine , 6kg IFB senorita . where do I get hat spare part to fix it.
No idea sorry. I'm just a guy who had to fix my washing machine
do you have instructions of how to open the door manually if the handle is broken with washing still inside the machine? thanks
Navit Schechter sorry. Didn't get that on camera but from memory I unscrewed the top and lifted it off then unscrewed the front enough to reach in an unsnib the door. It wasn't too hard.
I used an old credit card pushed between the door and the machine to release the latch. You could also use some fishing line
@@ben0nib0y bro. You're the man.
Thank you 🙏
Where i get door lock
Thank you
Great video. Exactly what I need but.... Can you tell me how to open the door, I closed the Washing Machine door after the broken grey handle part fell out.( I know im a Genius).
Mine was already shut when it broke. I ended up unscrewing and pulling the top of the machine off and then the side panel. You can reach in and unlatch it from there. It was quite a while ago now but I remember taking the top off and loosening the front panel to get my arm in. Hope that helps
tks so much!
Tank you👍❤️
Thank you of colombia
J'ai un crochet de porte sèche linge BOSCH WTA3200FF/09 à changer et ç'est plus difficile que ça en à l'air... avez vous la solution s'il vous plait ?
I cannot open the door. Child broke the door handle. How can I open it?
Sir how you open the door when its is lock and become broken the handle.
Good question. I'm confusing

You missed out a rather hard bit - how did you get that middle mechanism out of the door? Can't do it!
I managed after a while. Did everything as you said, but then it was really hard to slot the long ends of the spring mechanism back into place. Struggled with that bit for over an hour and eventually my husband did it. The rest was easy. Thank you for the tutorial, I would not have done it without your instructions.
My handle broke but the door is locked shut, how can I get it open?
from memory, if you take the screws out from the external walls, you can slide your hand through the edge and unlock the latch from the inside.
How did you get the spring mechanism and the broken part out? (Basically what happens right after min 3.00?)
Correct how?

Can't believe you got charged $55. I paid the equivalent of $5 in South Africa.
Price
Genio
Very helpful video but I think you got ripped off with this part. I paid under $13 delivered to WA on eBay
ben0nib0y bugger. Good tip for others though. Thanks
