A more common problem is that the underwires from bras commonly come out during washing and get in between the outer tub and the inner drum. If you are brave you can often get at bra wires by removing the heating element. Alternatively remove the back to access the heater.
Thanks for your time. You may find that you can feel one end of the wire sticking through one of the tiny holes in the drum and can then pull it out with a pair of pliers. With most machines you can remove the back or a panel in the back.
You may be lucky and spot the end of a bra wire and using your hands very carefully or a pair of pliers ease the bra wire out of the perforations. The straps can get tangled around other laundry and even get ripped off of the bra if it gets caught between the drum and the door seal. Try running your hand very carefully around the inside of the drum.
Hi I have a bra wire stuck between the inner and outer drums of my zanussi washing machine and wanted to know how to remove the paddle to get to the wire or is there an alternative way to get to it. Its certainly easier to take the wire out of the bra than take it out the washing machine. If it is making scraping noises when the drum turns it could be an underwire from a bra they can cause a breakdown though its unlikely to cause any serious damage.
If theres no sign of it youll want to check if its in the sump hose. You might need to turn the drum a little to ease it out. I have a Zanussi washing machine model ZWF16070W1 Type HI946661 and serial No.
