- In this video I fix a Beko tumble dryer start pause button, by replacing the light guide panel. If your pause/start button will no longer work, or pop out- this is the likely cause. Luckily replacing the beko tumble dryer start pause button light guide is relatively easy and will only coast about £7 for the part including delivery

If anyone has trouble with the 4 power connectors, this might help.

Thanks for the comment 👍
Hi, can you confirm if right and left is looking down at the top of the connectors or looking at the connectors from the front where they connect
i burned two main fuses because of not taking a picture of it...damnit..
I coloured them all (plugs and connector) with different coloured Sharpies just so there would be no confusion
Thank you for your helps. I fixed my dryer and fantastic guidance.
I'm a complete DIY novice and after seeing this video I felt confident enough to give it a bash. My family thought it hilarious that I was attempting to fix anything but guess who's laughing now! The dryer is fixed! Thanks buddy.
That is awesome! Well done ;-)
This just saved my mum a new tumble drier. Ordered the part, followed the instructions. Broken plastic just as he said. Piece of cake. Huge thanks to the maker of the video. Really clear. Superstar.
Great to hear!
where can i find the part? can you providfe a link?@@ultimatehandyman
You need to get the correct one for your particular model- www.espares.co.uk/search?SearchTerm=beko%20light%20guide
Thank you, this “how to do” video is brilliant and simple to follow it gave me the confidence to try to change the light guider myself - never tempted anything like this before, but being a single mum and not having £250 + for new dryer I had a go! Ordered part and 1 day later it’s fixed I’m so proud of myself all for £5.71 makes you think how many people just throw things away with out trying to fix! Thank you 🥰
Well done for having a go yourself 👍
I'm going to have a go too. You've inspired me Ann!
Never thought I would be able to fix this myself, but your video is excellent! Thank you so much, made me feel great doing it by myself and saved me a load in repair fees
Well done for having a go yourself 👏

Just used this video to resurrect my dead dryer. Thank you so much! I feel like a GOD!!!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Yessssss!!! Me too 😅😅
Thank you so much! Googled 'start button won't work on condenser dryer' - and your video popped up top of the list, working on my exact dryer. I ordered the button plate straight away, and with my phone propped up on the counter with your video playing - I have just fixed my dryer!! Hurrah!! 🎉Thanks again 😊
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
You have just saved me over £100 ( call out fee and parts ) by following your video, found out it was just the switch that just needed fixing. Thanks again
Fantastic!
Thank you. Your video saved me a fortune on call out charges and your instructions are so good it took me no time at all.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you for this video. Watched yesterday, ordered the part for today and now my dryer is running again. Very appreciated 👍
Fantastic! 👍
Just repaired the start button this morning thanks to your excellent explanation. The plastic at the base of the light guide had half broken. Silly design but you saved me buying a new machine and the planet! Thanks very much!
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment 👍
Beko Tumble Dryer with the Start/Stop button stuck. I found this video watched it , order part I needed from Amazon and then undertook the work and now all fixed. Thank you.
👍
Another brilliant video, another small fortune saved - if I ever see you in the pub, I'm buying you a pint!
Absolutely brilliant - I've just followed this (having watched it and bought the part) and fixed my tumble dryer in 20 minutes! Thank you
Fantastic!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks for the video. Followed your steps and all sorted within half an hour. £10 fix vs a £400 new machine!
Nice work!
Thank you 🙌 by the power of CZcams I’ve fixed another appliance and saved a small fortune ❤
Fantastic! 👍
Just want to say this video was everything I needed to fix my Beko tumble dryer, had the exact plastic problem described here and the instructions were clear and concise!
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
I have the same model with the same issue. Less than £5 for the part from Amazon and I followed this video including marking up plugs etc. Dryer now working and no big bill. Thank you for sharing this.
Glad it helped
Thanks for the comment
Omg my drier is working after five years looking at me, and Chinese laundry, finally I got fed up with clothes everywhere, and I feel like a goddess in my own life, thank you soooo much x
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
My dryer button has just had this exact fault and your tutorial is so clear. I've ordered a new part and feel confident in having a go at fixing this tomorrow! Thankyou so much for this.
Great to hear!
Perfect step by step guide, I've just replaced mine in 20 minutes from not having a clue what to do without this! Thanks mate 👍🏻
Glad it helped
All that I seem to do at the moment is work, and fix things! In the last few weeks, the tumble drier broke, the shelf broke in the fridge door and a washer perished on the upstairs toilet fill valve, which resulted in water dripping through the ceiling causing the RCD to trip.
At least we have had two superbly sunny days 😉
I hope everyone has a great Sunday
you and me both, its tiring
I've had a fan heater and a dehumidifier die on me this month as well as a garden wall falling over. ;)
@@closertothetruth9209 Thanks for the comment 👍
@@Petertronic I'm glad it's not just me then
Thanks for the comment 👍
I seem to spend my days fixing things people broke and then come home and watch people fix things on here.....I don’t know what’s going on anymore 😬👍
Excellent step by step video, got this job done in 30 minutes saving £80 for a repair or over £300 for a new tumble dryer! Keep up the good work. 👍
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
The best teacher on CZcams. I'm not a DIY person but I was able to follow your instructions to get my dryer working again in about 30minutes. Thank you, you saved me money.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Brilliant thanks. I just fixed the broken button. Your video has saved us some pennies!
God bless you and your family. Followed your steps although my dryer was slightly different it was almost the same steps. You saved me so much money! Please watch this video and listen to him guys!
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
Brilliant: "start" switch stopped working and thought I'd have to get a professional in to fix it. But I spent £3.79 on a new light guide for my model of tumble dryer and then maybe an hour (max) very carefully following the video to install it. Now the machine is working perfectly. Thank you so much.
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment 👍
I thought this was going to cost me a new dryer. I wouldn't have had a clue without your video> Thank you.
👍
Thanks for your video, would never have attempted this before, but with everything so expensive to replace I think more people are trying to fix their own. I am so glad for people like you who do these videos, was also lucky it was same make and model so no surprises, and of course so chuffed with myself. Thank again, big thumbs up from me.. 👍👍
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you so much!! I actually had a good time repairing the dryer with my son, thanks to your video. I’m not even embarrassed that I got help from someone from the island. Greetings from Germany! Appreciate the video
You are welcome, it's great to hear that you did it with your son 👍
Thanks for the comment 👍
Perfect thanks bud. Clear instructions saved us all a good few quid and the environment!
🙂Excellent guidance. Have this model tumble dryer and the start/pause button wasnt working. Followed the video to discover that new light guide needed. Ordered one (£3.75! inc delivery!) and while waiting for it to arrive did an epoxy resin temporary 'fix' of the broken plastic 'toggle' ( with some thin strips of silver foil glued on it for extra strength). It worked! A bit of a silly bodge but at least the dryer can be used for a while until the new replacement guide panel gets here. Having done this and followed the video I will be able to reasonably quickly and safely replace it, also remembered to use marker pen to mark the 4 wires as illustrated! Thank UH...saved us over £250-300 on a new dryer!!!
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
This video is absolutely spot on. Managed to change the light display no problems. Thank you so much. Keep up the great work!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
I'm a DIY novice. I watched this video, followed the instructions and hey presto tumble dryer repaired for £4.50. Can't argue with that!!!!
Well done 👍
Repaired my Beko DC7160 following this tutorial. This saved me from buying a new one. Thank you!
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
Accurate, clear, thorough, excellent pictures, steady voice - everything I needed to get the start/pause button on our Becco tumble dryer repaired. Thank you very much.!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Brilliant video, followed step by step and worked a treat. For a complete novice in electrics this was so simple to follow and has ultimately saved me money as normally would’ve got a engineer or just bought a new tumble dryer
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Many thanks Ultimate Handyman, your instructions were absolutely spot on. I never thought it would be possible for me to fix our tumble dryer. You saved me the cost to get it professionally fixed or indeed buy a new one. Brilliant!
Glad it helped, well done for having a go yourself ;-)
Thanks for the comment 👍
10/10 for this man , a great tutorial, step by step very easy to follow
Part only cost £3.69 on ebay, so saved £££ss on not buying a new tumble dryer.
Great to hear!
Fantastic video. Very clear. A £3.50 part, a screwdriver and half an hour is all you need!
Glad it helped 👍
Had a problem with my beko dryer. Found this video, bought the spare part required and the rest is history, dryer working again, no problem!
Thank you ultimate handyman, the instruction was absolutely spot on , very easy to understand, very impressed. 👏🏻👏🏻
I’m not super at this sort of thing but instead of spending about £120 for someone to come and do it for me, I thought after seeing your video, I can do this and I did! The wife is well chuffed so definitely in her good books too. Thanks once again 👍🏻😄
You beauty! 4 year old machine developed this problem. Told £80 call out and £60 repair meant just replacing the £200 machine. For £6 and 15 mins work I now have a perfectly functioning machine again and have saved a landfill site another big bulky item. Thanks so much for your help!!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
As someone who is the opposite of handyman, I was ready to throw my dryer away or pay someone a lot of money when the button stuck. Followed this and got it working for the sum of a fiver! Clear instructions, fantastic video. Thanks!
Just wanted to say thank so much for this - it's the second time in 3 years I've had to replace that panel on my 11 year old Beko tumble-dryer and you've saved me about £300 each time, following this tutorial! Very easy to do.
Useful video Chez. We've got a similar Beko dryer. Several years old now and so far no problems. We tend to buy new cheaper machines on offer, I fix anything that goes wrong out of g'tee that's a cheap fix on them, but when it gets expensive we get another machine. Not the "greenest" solution maybe but certainly the easiest. No service engineers call out fees! Great tip about numbering or marking cables. That's an absolute "must". Takes a minute to do, but saves loads of hassle later.
I remember a guy once who asked a question in the forum, he had a blown component in his washing machine and posted a picture of it (I can't remember if it was an interference suppressor, or a motor start capacitor), but I found him a direct replacement part and posted a link to it. A few days later he posted back asking where the wires go! I told him that he should have got the new one, next to the old one and just swapped the wires, but it was too late- he had removed all three or four wires!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you for this very detailed and clear video. I repaired my machine today and it was a simple job because you explained what part is needed and it was easy to follow your video.
Great to hear!
For a complete DIY amateur like I am this video explained the procedure perfectly. I now have a working tumble dryer again. Thank you
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Great video. Clear and informative. Fixed my dryer for £4.50 so I definitely owe you a drink!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Excellent video, helped my husband to fix our tumble dryer (with no prior experience!). Much appreciated, thank you!
Glad it helped 👍
Saved us a fortune! Hubby did the dead but honestly your instructions were so clear, I feel I could have been confident enough to try it out myself! Thank you 😊
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
You my friend are a legend! Gave me the confidence to fix a slightly different model for about £4. Excellent, easy to follow video 👍👍
Glad I could help
I just fixed mine by watching this video. Have had the part 2 years but it worked if I punched it repeatedly until today. So finally got round to it. Thank you
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you so much. Just fixed our Beko DCU6130W tumble dryer using your video. This model is even easier because no chip in the light guide panel to remove. Feeling epic ha ha 👍
Brilliant, well done 👍
Just fixed my dryer this morning following this guide! Great video and simple to follow - you saved me a fortune 👍👍
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Brilliant video. As others have said you don't need to be an electrician nor DIY expert as video is so easy to follow. We did order the wrong part...which was shorter than the original ...however was able to combine old and new and got it working. V happy and impressed my Mrs as well
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks mate, great video. I’m useless at this stuff but thanks to your video I’ve fixed mine now for less than £5. You’re my new hero. 😂
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
This is a great video! My husband and I managed to fix this together. We are useless at DIY, so great to manage this ourselves. It helped that we had the exact same model. :) The only thing that I would add is that we had another very small electrical connection point top right hand side, next to the main on/off connections (the four he mentions). We unclipped that to work on the board, as we had nearly no play with the wiring that we had to move the front board forward.
Thank you for this! I’ve just followed your video and sorted my tumble dryer. I was so worried I’d mess up but your video was very clear and easy to follow along. I feel so proud of myself lol. Thank you once again!!!!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks for the info, followed your info this morning, took me 25 minutes, looked harder than it was especially removing the damage part , very useful thanks again
Sorry 15 minutes
Glad it helped
👍
I fixed my Beko DCUR801W at the weekend thanks to this video. The only difference between the model shown and mine was the lid. Beko dispensed with the extra bit of plastic at the front and the whole lid is just one piece now, so no hidden screws.
👍
Thank you so much. You’ve given me the confidence to attempt this. My wife wanted to buy a new dryer, so this is a well deserved subscription!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the comment 👍
@@ultimatehandyman Just finished the job! I’m my wife’s new best friend……for the moment 😂 Many thanks once again 🙏
Ultimate Handyman: clear and simple instructions. For £4.29 and some 20 minutes later, we have a working tumble dryer. 🎉🎉
Many thanks.
I’m glad you found the video useful
Thanks for the comment 👍
Fantastic video, exactly what I needed clear and easy to follow. Great tip about marking the switches 👍
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks for this, very helpful. I'd assumed that the start/pause button was a switch and spent ages looking for one on the Beko spares site, obviously without success. Your video explained it perfectly. Thanks again.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks for a great tutorial.I had exactly the same problem, bought the part for a few pounds, followed the excellent tutorial and fixed it.
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you SO much! You've just saved me spending £300 on buying a new dryer and getting the old one taken away. I've also avoided adding yet another household appliance to landfill (or wherever appliances go when they go to sleep and never wake up 🙄).
I'm very grateful indeed! 🌟
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the comment
This worked a treat! Thank you. Fixed for £5 and got to feel like a real man doing it!
Thanks for the comment
Thank you for such a simple step by step approach. Worked a treat for me. Tumble drier now back and working. Highly recommend people take 30 mins to follow this and fix the problem themselves. As long as you can use a screw driver, very straight forward.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Great video - thought I was in for a £200 + new machine, but this was my exact issue and now easily fixed
Glad it helped 👍
This video was excellent thanks. Everything is covered with clear and concise instructions. I now have a working tumble dryer, thanks!
Brilliant, I’m delighted that the video helped!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Cracking guide to get one of these open and fixed, nice one 👍

Have used this video twice now to repair our tumble dryer! Thank you for the amount of detail and explanation, very helpful.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thanks, this was actually incredibly useful. I wish someone taught me this stuff growing up.
Thanks for that comprehensive video. Was able to follow and fix my tumbler dryer myself. Cheers
You are welcome

Perfect! Saved a load of money on call out 2 days before Xmas and fixed it myself in 30 min. Thanks for great instructions

Thanks so much for this. You have saved me £100s and got me in my wife’s good books.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
Honestly, I currently have mine bodged with a metal picture hook and a bit of foam and it works a treat 😂 but I do now have the proper part on the way and I wouldn’t have known how easy it was if it wasn’t for the first minute of the video showing me the part, cheers pal, looking forward to the proper fix being in place! 😂
Thank you so much for this video.
Easy to follow and I've now fixed my tumble dryer for the princely sum of £7.
You're a star.
Glad it helped
Thanks for the comment
Brilliant - followed your instructions and fix exactly this fault. Most grown up thing I've done for ages. Many thanks!
What a legend. 5 quid part and 20 minutes saves me 200 quid. Thanks. Mine was the DC7112W but almost identical inside
I'm glad the video helped ;-)
Thanks for the comment 👍
Excellent demonstration - Thanks very much - Just what we needed today!
Glad it was helpful!

Brilliant and easy to follow. I’ve now fixed my dryer twice with this video.
Great to hear!

Thank you so much for this brilliant video - having never done anything like this before I successfully fixed my dryer and saved myself a few quid in the process. Super easy to follow, clear and comprehensive. Thank you very much!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
I’ve just saved £155 in a call out call from Beko by watching your video - spending £3 on the part from Amazon - and 15 minutes to fix it!! Thank you so much for sharing 😀👌🏻👍🏻
I'm glad the video helped ;-)
Thanks for the comment
Absolutely fantastic guide, man! Thank you so much. Keep up the good work.
You are welcome
Thanks for the comment 👍
Your marking idea is a great tip. Thanks for that.
You are welcome

Thank you so much for saving me an arm and a leg in call out charges. Happy drying days again!
Glad to help 👍
Fixed mine with ease. Fab guide. Clear steps to follow and some tips along the way. Thank you. Just deciding whether to list all my white goods so that you can bring a series out just for me!
😂
Thanks for the comment 👍
Perfect instructions. You’ve saved me loads of money paying someone else to replace a couple of cheap parts. Thanks!!!
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
This is a brilliant guide. I used these instructions to fix my start/pause button. Thank you so much. You've saved me time and money on getting a handyman/electrician to charge me a silly sum of money to do a simple fix. All this cost me was £4.75 for the light guide panel. 😃
I'm glad the video helped.
Thanks for the kind donation 👍
Perfect step by step instructions and calling out the markings and potential for breaking important tabs was very good. Sorted a headache for me easily. Thanks.
Glad it helped
Thanks for the comment
Thank you so much for this video. I thought I would have to buy a new tumble dryer. I bought the new part for under a fiver and managed to fix it myself. So chuffed! So easy to follow your clear instructions. Thank You!
I'm glad the video helped
Well done for having a go yourself!
Thanks for the comment 👍
Thank you Ultrahandyman! My partner & I fixed ours this morning by following your video. It was much easier with two people - especially for the fiddly bits but took quite a while anyway because our machine had sooooooo munch fluff gathered everywhere that had to be removed! Thank you for the easy to follow guide :-)
Glad it helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
OMG Thank you so much for this video! Ours packed in and we were at a loss as were thinking we would just have to buy a new one as a repairman would cost us a fortune, and would it be worth it? Instead I found this video and bought the light guide for about £5 on Amazon. Hubby, who is not very good at DYI, followed this video step by step and we now have our dryer working! Very, very grateful! PS we used 3 different coloured permanent markers to mark the plugs - brilliant idea to mark them!
I'm glad the video helped ;-)
Thanks for the comment 👍
Brilliantly helpful. I mended mine and would have had to have bought a new one without this. Cost me less than a tenner and took me 30 minutes to mend. Perfect. Thanks.
I'm glad the video helped
Thanks for the comment 👍
I think this is the best result I've ever found on the Internet.
Thanks for posting. Just fixed mine using your post. Saved me a few hundred quid.
Thanks!

Thanks so much for the video. I followed it and had my tumble drier working again in half an hour. Saved me a lot of money as I didn't have to buy a new machine!
