I suspect my drum has broken
Hi all,
I looked through a lot of information but can't figure out what part of the machine has broken and why? Hopefully I can find some advice.
I have a hotpoint aquarius wdal 8640.
Last night during a drying cycle the machine made an almighty banging noise so I turned it off and discovered some snapped plastic and the seal pulled down. Am I right in thinking the drum has broken?
Many thanks for any input.

That looks terminal if the plastic is the outer drum. Usually caused by something metal left in a pocket that gets into the drum.

Thanks for your help much appreciated, think I'll be getting a new one.
Drums can be £200+ and a massive job to do. Check Ransom Spares to find out the cost of a new outer drum.

Thank you for the reply. Terminal as in the drum could be replaced do you think? Or new washing machine time?
