Thanks a million Paul for a great tutorial. And as English isn't my first language I especially appreciate your plain, sort of BBC like, English so easy to follow. Best regards! You've already created a legacy.
Awesome video. It was very informative. Only an experienced engineer can explain this simple to make common people understand easily. Thank you, Sir. Great effort and very much appreciated .
Thanks for watching! It would be really helpful for me to get my video shared and help us fight appliance waste! Please remember to subscribe to our channel, as that really helps us 😇
Great work pal! I'm going to see if i can take my drum out and see where it's leaking from! It's dripping out half way up on both sides and dripping on the motor!
Well, that definitely is not a good idea for the water to be getting on the motor so it's great that you're dealing with the problem straight away if I can be any help at all with technical information please use the contact us page at our website website and I'll see what information I can pull with your full model number.

Ahh it seems the inner drum is off centre and is rubbing, and has worn through ! It is on its 3rd set of brushes and second child lol ! We’ve had it 12 years, I’m curious to see if I can make it a family heirloom 🤣 I’ll check your site now.
Hey, I have a spot welded beko machine and trying to empty the pump. You mentioned its in other videos but i didnt find them. Could you give a link? Thank you sooo much 🤗

Does the Beko really easy to worn after couple of years? They have input lots of technology into the new machine and cause it so expensive when u want to repair it.
Thanks for a very informative vid. We have a beko 9 series, and the bearings went ( just outside the guarantee_ 1-nil to Beko for perfect timing re designed-in failure). I replaced them by cutting the welded joint on the drum housing and using high quality bearings bought locally. They have been ok for over a year now, and still perfect. You described this drum as scrap. Do you not reckon it is worth doing a bearing repair ? (The bits cost me less than £20). I would value your comment.
It is worth parking the machine to one side. I'm waiting for the same model number to come up on eBay with electronic fault then you would be able to rob Charlie to make Peter better as the expression goes. You can normally pick them up for less than £25. @steveholding3975 please remember to subscribe to our channel as that really helps us czcams.com/users/shortse432SAb2g08 Thanks, Paul 👍
Thanks Paul, mine is a WM74125W but very similar, I do wonder why they keep making minor changes and then saying the old and very similar models are now out of production. I also wonder why they don't do their own videos, never mind, sent soem beer money.
There are new laws coming into place in Europe, and I believe the manufacturers will have to start supplying parts for 10 years, but whether that happens over here is a different kettle of fish @user-mk2bb5zk8z please remember to subscribe to our channel as that really helps us czcams.com/users/shortse432SAb2g08 Thanks, Paul 👍
I have lived this TWICE ! I split my drum last week,replaced the bearings (not cheap £40! FAG ones) put it all back together again,zero issues,no breakages,but upon the turn-on today,the drum will not spin ? The motor ain’t turning.It was fine apart from the bearings being noisy,when I took it apart.Do you have ANY ideas,it’s filling and draining,but the counter doesn’t go down,and it won’t spin,I’m perplexed,but am unsure what actually stops the drum spinning (door latch etc ?)…please help as my wife wants to buy a new one,and I’ve invested too much time and learning into this now…I wanna hear those new bearings smooth as…it was like a B52 landing when I took it apart last week !
Thanks for this video. I've got a Beko WI 1573 that's leaking from under the front left corner. I got a guy out to check it but he put it on a short cycle and it didn't leak. It only leaks when it's on a longer cycle. Which is infuriating. Strangely since he pulled the machine out it's been leaking more which makes me thinks it's the seal that he removed and then put back or whichever hose it is just got more dislodged. The hoses for Beko look fairly cheap so I'm tempted to give it a go. Do you know what the issue might be? Thanks.
This is a really useful video. I have a WMB 71442 but I'm struggling to remove the water valve (@15:11 in your video). It just won't turn! Do I just really need to give it some welly?
@gavellaglan you need to make sure that the two plastic bits at the back of the valve or not catching and turn it in the right direction you might need to give it a bit more welly please remember to subscribe to our channel as that really helps us czcams.com/users/shortse432SAb2g08 Thanks, Paul 👍
Hi, I’ve got a 10KG beko washer and a couple issues… 1) the steel body is rusting a little just below the powder tray… assume water is ‘splashing’ over the tray and leaking onto the body? Is this common/easy to fix or prevent? 2) doesn’t seem to be filling from the hot water intake even when on a hot cycle. Can I test this to confirm?
If the water pressure is high, then this could be causing the problem when you have a lot of soap powder in the drawer you could turn the tap on the wall to reduce the pressure, but what I would do is make sure you clean up the rust and repaint it,
I will be trying to do it on as many makes as possible for you all. @deebee3901 please remember to subscribe to our channel as that really helps us czcams.com/users/shortse432SAb2g08 Thanks, Paul 👍

I have a Beko WMB 71443 LE and its currently leaking a lot of water in the back while draining. It could be comming from the waste hose, but the hose in general is completely dry. At the point where it connects to the backplate, there is another small hose comming from it which is open. Is there some plug missing or is this how its supossed to (pressure exchange or something like that)? Because i feel like the water (leaks) there.
Hi Tim, i wrote quick article for you with some exploded diagrams of your machine to show you where some of the hoses are, I've also a couple of videos on there to assist you in finding leaks www.how-to-repair.com/faqs/beko-wmb-71443-le-washing-machine-leaking-water-while-draining/
Early bekos where average then improved upto mid late 2000 there just as good as bosch.The only problem with later bekos are the programmers don't seem to be as robust
The build construction is pretty good. The technical help is fantastic, but why or why do all manufacturers have to produce sealed drums for the sake of 12 screws I swear they all sit around a table each year trying to create ways to sell their machines faster. There is no need for it. This planet is in a big enough mess as it is.
Hi I have a question about this washing machine. What part do I repair when the on/off switch doesn’t spring back I’m confused if it’s the face panel or the switch itself

Amazing machines for the price! Seeing bearings go on these is pretty uncommon as well, the one in the video must've had a pretty hard life. The state of its original motor also confirms that

These giants don't appear to care as much about the customers. Selling more machines is their primary objective. They profit from green marketing strategies, yet they don't face consequences for the rising amount of white goods that are thrown away. These days, the average lifespan of a gadget is barely five years.

I had to dismantle the control panal to fix on/off switch which had become lose and is not working, Once I had got to it I could see there is a little plastic return spring leaf spring kind, made of 1mm thick clear plastic with a little cross that when you press on/off on the outside of the machine it connect to the on/off button on the curcuit board. This flimsy bit off plastic had snapped off, and was hard to find when it fell on the floor, its clear plastic and only 2mm wide and 8mm long. I have glued it back on Now, and have too reconnect all the control panal clips and wires then I will see if thats fixed it, fingers crossed. Just gotta wait for the glue to set.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! 😀

How do you remove the program selector knob from the plastic front panel very clearly explained thanks.
I suppose I need to completely disassemble the machine if I want to install new shock absorbers, or is there another way? Great video by the way!
Hey, I have a spot welded beko machine and trying to empty the pump. You mentioned its in other videos but i didnt find them. Could you give a link? Thank you sooo much 🤗
i was wondering what the top of a beko washer dryer was made and can a vent be added to it to help release heat better it is fitted in a tight space
Great video thanks you

Does the Beko really easy to worn after couple of years?
They have input lots of technology into the new machine and cause it so expensive when u want to repair it.
What do we do, if we DON'T have an overhead electric hoist at home in our kitchen? 🤣 ... The kitchen fitter asked if we wanted one, but we said no!

My digital display has gone blank but the machine itself still works,can it be fixed?
Have you got a video to show me how to change a heating element please on a beko washing machine
