Hotpoint Fridge Freezer Door Hinge
Holds the door on the appliance and lets it swing open and shut.
Signs it has failed
- A door that sags or does not close squarely
- A clunking or loose feeling when the door opens
- A broken hinge pin or spring
- Water or heat leaking around a door that no longer seals
Check before you buy
- Open the door and lift it gently: movement at the hinge points to wear
- Check the springs, cables or pins for breakage
- Check the door seal is not the real cause of the leak
What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your fridge freezer and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).
How to replace it
- Unplug the appliance
- Support the door and remove the fixings or hinge pins as the manual shows
- Take off the old hinge and fit the new one in the same position
- Refit the door and check it closes evenly
- Test a short cycle or heat-up
Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.
Getting the right part
Hinges differ by side, spring and fixing. Match the part number, your model number and whether you need the left or right hand part. Door hinges can be heavy, so support the door while you work.
