    Hotpoint wd865 soap dispenser leak

    Hi John, There isnt an easy access panel at the front. Although i wouldnt say it was hard to access either, jst 4 clips and then tilting the washing machine over to remove it. Theres plenty of room to get your hands inside.

    Hotpoint wd865 soap dispenser leak

    Hotpoint wd865 soap dispenser leak

    Hi all, I have read the posts in here already, 1 suggested a kit with an 89gbp labour cost and another is to fit a tap and raise the front of the machine. My query is our machine has started to do this after about 3 years, now granted my wife doesnt clean the machine on a monthly basis, but...
