Very Old Miele DE LUXE ELECTRONIC W 772 - circa 1986

[Harryg]

I have a very old  Miele DE LUXE ELECTRONIC W 772 washing machine , from around 1986. The machine is still running, but the drum is not turning. I have taken the top off, and it looks like the drive belt, and the large drive wheel have come off. I am however not able to get to these parts as there is no access panel at the back, and the back panel and side panels are all in one. Any help with accessing this would be appreciated.

 

Many thanks

Hello there. That's pretty good going for a washing machine and how long washing machines should last if they are looked after. If it doesn't have a back panel, then unfortunately you most likely have to strip out the front of the washing machine and remove either the side panels and or the entire rear half of the shell.
