Hotpoint tumble dryer broken

currandes · 2012-08-21 08:23:49

I have a hotpoint aquarius tumble dryer that makes a knocking noise on each rotation. The noise seems to be coming from the base of the drum at a certain point. The drum itself is not loose. Any ideas of what is wrong and how to fix it please, thanks Des.

it is prob bearings .you will need a bearing repair kit to fix.
it should have both front bearing pads and felt and drum shaft and back bearing and a bit of patience(can be a bit tricky).
