    This guy has saved me so much money over the past year or so. Great repair tips that save me probably hundreds if not thousands of pounds.

    I am so glad you started this video by telling people to unplug the unit from the mains first. So many "how to" videos omit that essential piece of advice.

    Tip : replace rivets with M5 16mm Dome head bolts & M5 Nylon threaded nuts. These fit the spider bearing perfectly.

    • @derekcoleman8985
      @derekcoleman8985 Před 2 lety +1

      I thought about doing that, however the drum gets hot which may cause an issue with the nyloc nuts. At the extreme end may be a fire hazard. Im open to replies if anyone has a view.

    • @Toob41
      @Toob41 Před rokem

      @@derekcoleman8985 Agreed, the nyloc inserts could melt. I'm using stainless button head bolts and two plain nuts locked together 🤞.

    • @chris1717chris
      @chris1717chris Před 10 měsíci +1

      Great videos. Thank you. I was able to drill out the old rivets today and used 16mm x 4.8 Magnusson rivets from B&Q. Make sure you rivet from the inside of the drum out, so the smooth head is inside the drum, protecting the clothes.

    • @kevinpeters5000

      I used some 25mm M6 bolts as I had them available, but had to drill the spider out very slightly. 25mm bolts are a bit long - 16 or 20mm would better. I also went with nyloc nuts. The instructions say to use some electrically conductive grease between the screw head and conductive strip but I couldn't find anything reasonable anywhere! What did other people use? Finally, the new bearing still had quite a lot of play in it so I suspect the spider assembly is also worn but these no longer seem to be available. However, the clunking/banging sound has now stopped with the replacement of the bearing and rivets. Only time will tell how long this lasts.

    This is why I like white knight dryers. They are like the hotpoint washers and dryers. Basic and easy to work on. Great video as always

    Any advice if the bearing bracket is loose? I was thinking of using epoxy over and around the rivets to stop it rattling. Just a bit concerned about the heat. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

  • @iheggis86
    @iheggis86 Před 5 měsíci

    I recently replaced the drum & bearings in my whiteknight eco83a however the replacement drum didn’t have the brush runner strip.
    Am I right in thinking the drum brush is for the moisture sensors? As the sensor dry no longer functions correctly.

    I've fitted bearing kit all okay but still loose , spider housing I guess is worn too , I think I left it too late before replacing the bearing . I cant see how you can buy/ replace spider.

    A quick (hopefully obvious) clarification at 1m55s onwards - he is using pointy-nosed "radio pliers" to PULL the connectors off, not side-cutters to snip the wires off...!!! :)

    @loulou4148 Před rokem

    HELP 🙏 I tried taking the back off to clean away the dust/lint, instead of taking top off I just unscrewed the main back panel, upon trying to remove the panel the whole guts came with it, so heavy it's dropped & due to wires etc still being intact I found myself holding on for dear life to try to line the panel back up to the screw holes which almost impossible, I had no choice but to turn dryer on it's front & force the panel enough to put screws back in, now the Drum won't turn at all, why is the Panel not just coming away easily without the whole unit attached to it, despite removing the Screws 😢

    @speedwell0560 Před 9 měsíci

    What is the symptom of a failing bearing? My dryer makes a regular ‘clunk’ when rotating but there doesn’t appear to be any lift of tight spots in the drum, I’d like to be able to buy parts before taking it apart as it’s a pain removing being integrated

    • @Law_Abiding_Citizen_ok
      @Law_Abiding_Citizen_ok Před 8 měsíci

      Think you may find that the actual drum is cracking by the rivets and on every rotation it makes an awful clunking noise. You may be able to see the cracks by looking inside the drum through the loading door if your dryer is built-in.

    • @beezergood
      @beezergood Před 7 měsíci

      Our dryer is doing exactly that - one clunk per revolution of the drum. I’ve taken it apart and the plastic bearing is very worn. I will replace it and report back.
