Brickie Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Hi all, need to replace ours & our Aeg model is proving unbelievably hard to locate the part for-does anyone have a secret golden website they know of to order from?

Jeremy Harris Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 The chances are it's a standard bearing, so with luck you may be able to get one from someone like Bearing Boys: https://www.bearingboys.co.uk/ (no affiliation, but they've always provided great service when I've used them). Usually the bearing will have the size code marked on it, together with the code for the type of shield/seal. For example, sat on my desk in front of me I have a box of 6000-2Z bearings, which are 26mm OD, 10mm ID, 8mm thick, with double shields. If you can read a number like this on the bearing face, then with luck you may be able to find a replacement fairly easily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vijay Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 What's the model number of the machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichS Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 When I tried to renew ours about 9 months ago I bought the bearings off the internet, spent about 3 hours to get the drum out of the machine, and then about another hour to knock the bearing out. I then found they'd sent me the wrong bearing. At that point I lost the will to live, skipped the lot, and went to Curry's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickfromwales Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I gave up repairing domestic appliances as its just a pita. Strip them and repair one thing, then another goes. A day off work and a headache? I'd rather give the £300. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you mate but it's a £600 machine (washer/drier) so I can't let it go without a fight :)) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) You need another number as above: http://www.partmaster.co.uk/washing-machine/l75480wd-91460560000/bearing/catalogue.pl?shop=aeg&path=108434&model_ref=2549563&refine=bearing I've tended to use espares myself, others favour Ransom Spares: http://www.espares.co.uk/search/ma143pt1553/washing-machines/bearings/aeg Edited April 2, 2017 by Onoff Ransom NOT Random! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onoff Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 NOTHING pi$$es my missus off more than when I repair a domestic appliance and she was hoping for a new one! Bosch dishwasher is coming up 20 years old. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Have a look through this parts listing for your model: http://shop.electrolux.co.uk/search?ssv=91460560500 I have but couldn't see any bearing listed. Have tbh only just woken up and looking on the phone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickie Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Only just woke up at 8.50-living the dream! Had a look myself & also can't see it,nor anywhere else. Puzzling-could it be the design is such that the bearings alone can't be replaced? I'll have a look at the online manual when the two Fun Size People in my life will allow it.

PeterW Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Sometimes the bearing is built into the drum spider at the back - you may have to replace the whole spider which is bolted to the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onoff Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) @Brickie you're making us work for this one! Straight from the AEG site but I think the same parts list as I already posted: http://shop.aeg.co.uk/search?pffv=0&ppc=8&psf=4&prpp=20&ssv=91460560500&psfo=A&ppn=2 @PeterW is bang on that bearings might come part and parcel of the spider - even though the bearing inside is bog standard. Had similar with the Bosch d'washer. Said the element was part and parcel of the instantaneous water heater and I'd have to replace the whole thing at about £150. Managed to replace just the element at a fraction of the cost. Honestly UK Whitegoods forum is the place if really stuck.

Brickie Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Opened the back up and-there's no spider!! is that normal? No sign of it broken off or anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickie Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Is that white cylinder the spider? Was thrown by it not looking like the parts I've come across in searching for bearings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Temp Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Don't know about the AEG but some tubs are welded together making it hard to replace the bearings. There are some vids on youtube.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
