Do you know how to replace heating element in washing machine? A heating element for a washing machine is relatively cheap and installing it pretty straightforward so you might be able to do it yourself. I replaced the heating element in Zanussi / Electrolux washer but you will do it in the same way in different models. Watch my video to see how to do it quickly and without hassle. The job wasn't time consuming at all, it took me about half an hour to finish.
Main problems with heating elements in washing machines:
1. Burnt out heating element - open circuit, does not heat water
2. Damaged insulation in the heating element - disconnects the fuse
The video shows case 2.
Burned out or damaged insulation in heating element must not be repaired.
Zanussi / Electrolux washing machine disassembly may be a bit tricky as you won't be able to unscre the back. If you want to repair Zanussi /Electrolux front-loading washer, you might be suppried it opens differently than most models. Watch my video demonstrates the proper and safe way to disassemble a washing machine and how to access parts that may need to be tested and/or replaced: • Zanussi / Electrolux w...

Thanks for showing how the bolt/nut setup makes the seal expand, no one else on KZfaq shows this, and it is important to know when the old element wont come out, even with the nut a bit loose.

I know right? I spent at least 20 minutes trying to get the bastard on and then I decided to not let my ego get in the way and I looked this video up and had an epiphany moment. Damn near about cried after getting in on.

Took me 1-2h with knowing it. Still don't understand why it didn't work. Seems the rubber expanded inside and got stiff. Had to take a screwdriver and force the rubber out.

I just want to say how incredibly helpful this was and how much I appreciate the effort you went to explain the key points that no one else did and you did it without words. Bravo. I only wish I watched it before messing it up with silicone to make the seal lol!! Should I rip it out and go again or do you think it's ok after tightening the bolt. I'll probably give it a test and see :)

@k-nemo Жыл бұрын

I would leave the silicon.

@@k-nemo hey, i need help with my replacement, I have the same replacement part which has the same model number but once I've installed it it leaks! the seal and everything is fine though.

Thanks for showing. Just when i already ordered my heater, I was unable to pull out the heater. The rubber padding surrounding the heater got sealed or stuck inside. The front plate already out but the rubber sealed it so well that i unable to pull out. Is there something I missed?

@k-nemo Жыл бұрын

After loosening the nut and pushing the bolt in, the heater should come out.

@bernardtan7068 Жыл бұрын

I tried again, this time i managed to pull it out. After knocking the bolt right inside and it still cannot come out, I decided to use towels for better grip and pull it out. Thanks alot for the video, it has been inspirational.😊

Another question: is ot necessary to remove the belt connecting the motor and the drum?

@k-nemo Жыл бұрын

In my washing machine, the belt interferes with the removal of the heater.

Thanks for making this helpful video. With how much Haier expect to charge, I am keen to see if I can sort it out myself. May I ask what is it that you are doing with the Multimeter?

@k-nemo 11 ай бұрын

I check the resistance between the heater body and the pins to which voltage is supplied. The insulation resistance in the heater is too low. This caused the fuse to cut off the power to the washing machine.

Can we do it without a multimeter? Don't have one or know how to use....
