This is a comparison of the new hinge plate (mounted on the door) and the old hinge plate.  Note the difference in size.]]> Tue, 27 Mar 2012 03:19:37 +0000 http://appliantology.org/gallery/image/312-asko-hinge-platejpg/ http://appliantology.org/gallery/image/311-asko-hingejpg/
OK, what you're seeing here is a comparison of the washer hinge bushing service kit (part number 8801177; it's on the left) and the old worn out bushing/hinge on the right.   As you can see, the bushing isn't quite the same size...so the metal mounting plate on the door won't fit into the new bushing/hinge assembly.  What I did was to mount the new mounting plate that came with the kit onto the door, then use a fine tooth metal saw (a craftsman multi-tool if it matters!) to trim the 'hook' part of the door where it stuck out past the hinge plate.]]> Tue, 27 Mar 2012 03:19:24 +0000 http://appliantology.org/gallery/image/311-asko-hingejpg/
