Yesterday my Zanussi washing machine made a weird noise on the final spin. I quickly switched it off and emptied it. Switched back on but the drum would not turn. I have only had it just over 12 months (and no I didn't take out the extended warranty - sob!).
It wasn't making any noises before this. The drum doesn't move at all - not by hand or when switched back on. It is stuck solid. Opened up the back to check the belt - still intact. I took the belt off and switched the machine on to see if the motor still goes - it does. There is no obvious noises when the motor runs.
So, I think that something has got between the inner drum and outer drum (like a sock) and wondered how the hell I get to it.
I took off the rubber seal on the door but still can't see into the inside of the drum.
Is there a way of getting between these drums from the front? Any help would be appreciated. Many Thanks.
