Replacing the belt on an Electrolux washing machine

feylya · 2007-10-06 10:28:49

Hopefully someone here can help. I'm trying to replace the belt on the washing machine/dryer combo and I'm stuck at the first hurdle - how do I get the back off to get at the belt. It's an Electrolux Aqualux 1200. And in case anyone says get someone in, I've already booked two people to come down and they never showed up!

if you look at the sides of the machine you will see the seems where it separates -its a bit tricky if you dont know what you are doing -but if you put a new belt on the chances are it will snap again as you dont know what caused it to go in the first place -good luck it can be tedious

Cheers. Managed to get it open, only to find a large number of wires wrapped around the motor. I will get someone in I think.
