First remove the top of the machine. Next, take out the drawer. Behind where the drawer was you will find 2 or 4 screws. Remove. Control knobs have to come off next. Dryer timer knob just pulls off. Wash control knob is held on by 1 screw. Look through slot in top and turn knob til you see screw. Loosen screw and knob pulls off. Behind knob 2 more small screws. Remove. Fascia should now come off. Watch for attached wires. Then you will see 3 screws holding top of front panel on. Also 3 right at the bottom. Remove all. Next you have to release the door seal to allow you to take front panel off. White plastic piece at top of door seal. Insert small screwdriver in slot (RH side) Twist and it will come apart. Pull off wire holding front of seal. Next undo two screws where door latch enters. Door interlock will fall off inside and dangle from attached wires. Front panel should now be free to remove. Replace door seal held on by large clamp and smaller clamp connected to the top. Then work backwards til its all together again. Easy to do but not so easy to explain. Good luck! Would like to hear how you get on.
