P.S. The model number on the rear panel looks like "27405". Possibly 37405, as the lable is a bit crinkled , but I think it's much more like 27405. Thanks. |

Brilliant. My mother who it was bought new for, would be amazed and chuffed to see her old Creda 1000 looking so good, and so well cared for. 😊😊 |

I was lucky enough to pick up some service information for Creda machines from around the time Hotpoint had taken them over. The information covers Creda designed machines - the dryer service info shows as Hotpoint Creda whereas the washing machine I’ve attached shows just Creda but all have the Creda address on them.
It doesn’t have your model number but I’ve attached the later model details as quite often these updates were more about cosmetic changes rather than engineering redesign so it might help. As Mathew has pointed out, it looks like removing the front is the way to do it. Good luck and keep us posted Steve |

Hopefully the belt will be suitable and a successful rebuild result. Keep us updated with how it goes. Paul

Belt arrived. Certainly looks the same so should do the job. Hopefully tomorrow. |

Finished. Now I understand the front 'bearing'. The front of the drum, runs on and is supported by, felt pads. How do I upload a video? |

BTW.. Thanks for the help chaps. I couldn't have done it without, and it may have to have been scrapped, which would have been terrible. So thanks again. |

Picture3 of your last set shows the back of the dryer and if you look above the heater there is a metal lever with a threaded screw and on there is I believe a small bakelite block which is also threaded that travels up and down the screw pressing the metal lever as it reaches the end. When it presses the lever it switches the motor direction

Great work Peter , good to see another vintage classic Creda saved from the scrap, also good to see the airflow venting box and how the airflow is directed up top and over back to vent out the hot air.
As hot air always rises it always seemed more logical to offer this concept, Creda certainly were ahead of the game with their products, Thanks for sharing , Mike |
