Hello there,
The door hinge on our Hoover WDM120(01) snapped this morning (a nice surprise after we've had around a dozen friends and family members to stay over the last week and have a huge backlog of associated laundry to do).
It looks like this should be a reasonably simple and inexpensive this to repair; the part seems to be readily available on the web. My problem is that I can't for the life of me see how to take the door apart to be able to fit a new hinge into it. I have undone and removed the 4 torx screws in the door, but the two plastic halves do not want to pull apart. I have tried prizing the two pieces apart, but they are pretty firm and I don't want to break anything.
Does anyone have any suggestions or experience that might assist me, please?
Many thanks,
Adam
