Hi, I'm El and welcome to eSpares.
In this video, I'm going to be showing you
how to replace the door glass
on this Samsung ecobubble washing machine.
If the glass in your door has cracked or possibly even shattered
then you'll of course need to replace it
and what you'll find is it could be caused by a belt buckle, coins
or keys left in the pockets during the wash.
So to avoid this problem just make sure
to take all of those items out of your pockets
and remove belts off your clothes before you begin your laundry cycle.
For this repair, you'll need a flathead screwdriver
a Phillips screwdriver
and an eight-millimetre socket.
So to start the repair we just need to remove the door
which we can do with our eight-millimetre socket
and just remove these two screws here
and then just lift the door away.
Throughout this repair, you will find that there are a few different sets of screws.
So just keep note and be aware of which screws go in which locations.
The next set of screws you need to remove
are these five around the edge of the door here.
So just get started.
Then you just need to remove
the two screws here holding the door catch in place
and then just lift off the door catch itself.
Now that you've removed all of your screws
you can separate the two panels here.
So if you grab your flathead screwdriver
just pop it in the groove and twist it
and if you start near the handle as this is the easiest area
and then just work your way around
and then just lift up your damaged door glass and that's that removed.
So to replace the door glass with one that fits your model
you will need the model number of your machine.
If you're not sure where to find it
there's a link up here that will tell you
how to find the model number for your washing machine
and to get the right replacement door glass
just pop down to the link in the description
and we'll show you where to get that too.
To fit your new door glass
just pop it in the place of the old one
and make sure this semi-circle here
is just lined up with the semi-circle shape on the panel there
and it should just click into place.
To refit the inner panel.
Just line up the lugs here
with the hose on the panel itself
and then just go around flicking it into place until it's completely secure.
Now we're ready to refit the five screws around the edge of the door here.
Then refit the catch so that the hook goes into this hole here
and then secure it with the two screws.
Lastly, you'll want to fit the door back onto the appliance itself.
So you just get the hinge here
and put these catches in the holes
and then that will just slide down and stay in place
ready for us to replace the two screws.
There you have it
how to replace the door glass on a Samsung ecobubble washing machine.
Before you run a cycle with clothes inside
we do recommend that you run an empty cycle first
just to wash away any shards of glass or other dirt and debris
that may have got inside your machine during the repair.
As well as replacing damaged parts
there are other pieces of safety information
that you should be aware of when it comes to your washing machine.
