Hotpoint WDPG 9640 - Torx screws on door

Hi all,

I've been all around the internet trying to work this one out; I need to replace a broken handle on my Hotpoint WDPG 9640 (I think it's one of the Hotpoint-Ariston ones) and am fairly confident, however I need a Torx driver to get the door off of the hinge in order to fit the new handle.

What size of Torx driver do I need for this? I don't want to spend a load of money on a (for me) single use tool that's going to be wrong.

Thanks!

Hello. It should just be a normal torks bit that I would expect to be included in any torks set. They can be bought for as little as just £2 or £3. A torks set is really a necessary tool these days as they are everywhere so you might want to spend a few pounds more but any "set" should cover all the common sizes. Search online for torks set.

Many of them just slot into a box spanner of about 8 to 10 mm but more expensive ones should come with a tool to put them in.
