Hi

Ok ive just uploaded the instructions for you.

Click the link below and follow the instructions then you can down load and save them.

Now when you read it you will need to replace the bushes on the handle as your serial number is XXXXX the code so they need to be replaced. The part number is XXXXX the sheet so you can get the parts either from your local spares shop or online. If you need help locating the parts just get back to me.

Other then that it shows you how its down.

Thanks, XXXXX XXXXX the document, and I think I have found the new bows, however the spares website is not using the numbering scheme in the document - the spares website just offers either:
- AEG Bow Upper Left Lower Right Stainless 12 for S86378-KG1 Stock Number: ES582221
or
- AEG Bow Upper Right Lower Left Stainless 12 for S86378-KG1 Stock Number: ES582224

Can you tell me which one I will need (I want to move the hinge from the original right hand side to the left side)?

Kind regards.

Expert:  washer man replied344 days and 7 hours ago.

Hi

Are you useing Espares as they use there own stock codes.

So the ES582224 is correct but the other part ive got is ES1075953

Thats the 2 new bows you will need.

Regards

Customer replied344 days and 7 hours ago.

Hi,

Yes, it's Espares I was using. The two items I referred to are the only parts listed for my f/f that have "bow" in the title which is what the document said was needed.

I searched on Espares for the part number you gave and got "AEG Refrigerator Upper Left / Lower Right Shackle - Stock Number: ES1075953". Is this the correct part?

Hi

Sorry for the delay.

Yes the parts I listed are the correct parts you will need to reverse the door.

Regards

Customer replied343 days and 7 hours ago.

Hi again,

Sorry for my delay in responding. Have just checked Espares and realised that they are out of stock :(. So have done a bit more searching and found RansomSpares who seem to have a full selection of parts, but of course use a different numbering scheme for the parts but at least their naming is consistent. Could I ask you to advise me of which 2 parts it is I need? The choice here is from:

1 - bow lower right upper left Stainless - Our Product Code: RS234357
2 - bow upper right lower left Stainless - Our Product Code: RS234359
3 - bow upper left lower right Stainless 12 - Our Product Code: RS234358

I'd guess it is 1 & 2 but would prefer to be certain.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi

Them numbers are for the ones you already have. You need the opposites if you are reverseing the door around.

There number is XXXXX

And RS234357

Thanks for the additional number - that comes up in the search on their website so I can get both the bows from there and they are in stock.

Customer replied331 days and 18 hours ago.

Hello again,

I got the parts I needed and have just attempted to switch the doors over, and everything was going to plan with one exception - the flat cable that needs to be moved to the other side is not long enough.

The reason why is that the flat cable plugs in to a very small circuit board that is attached to the top front panel on the right hand side, and consequently has a lot further to travel to get to the hinge when this is on the left hand side.

Is there some sort of extension for this flat cable that can be used?

Regards.
