Basically chucked a load of washing in, standard Friday evening.

Went for a game of Rock Band with J.M.

Washing is still wet and its not really clean, wondering if I should bother trying to fix or just replace as I don't think its doing its job properly.

It isn't in great physical condition either.

Anyone fixed/replaced one before? Easy to do?

Be careful mate. There's some big capacitors in a washer. Can be lethal if you touch them. Even when unplugged

As above, check the filter.

Also, does the drum spin?

I think it still spins.

Where would the filter be, might be able to get an exploded diagram

This here is what to expect when you ask BCF for advice in washing machines.

It is fine mate.

Think we found the root cause of the door not closing.

Turns out she was just tired of living in this world...

What you should have done is slapped it in the ear Paddy and burst its eardrum.

Of course I'm serious. By his own admission the lad's suffered with mental problems for a long time, has just lost his brother and is now smashing up his washer for no good reason. Mongs like Joe can joke about while trying to suck each others dicks but mental illness isn't a joke. Don't see the funny side of this at all

Have a look at the picture again. See the jumper hanging out of it.

The thing blew up whilst we were playing Rock Band on the Playstation, in another room. It was doing the washing at the time.

The funny side is that the freaking washing machine blew up Laughing

I don't actively aim to have unclean clothes, was a standard wash, massive bang that shook the flat..

Losing a brother won't make me insane. Losing the 2 that are now in hospital will... so uh.. yeah, this washing machine is minimal in my life right now. Just thought it would be fun to update with what...happened Laughing
