[Solved] Candy CSTG 47TME1-S - how to remove right side cover to access bearing?

Best answers LABEL_AI_GENERATED

How can I access and replace the right-side (passive side) bearing on a Candy CSTG 47TME/1-S with minimal disassembly?

You cannot reach the right-side/passive bearing through the side cover alone; the tank has to be dismantled, or you must cut an access hole in the housing and reseal it afterward [#21916928] [#21917183] [#21917191] One reply says to remove the washing unit, because there is no access to the passive side [#21916427] [#21916928] If you want a cleaner repair, remove the tank top from the housing; if you want the simplest shortcut, make a hole in the cover and seal it later [#21917191] A bearing link was also given for part 43011931, and the machine was identified as using part number 31011178 for this search [#21916427] [#21916928]

    Hi,

    I would to ask you. I have Candy CSTG 47TME/1-S and I have issue with the bearing on the right side (without pulley/belt). How is the easiest way to remove the cover and get to the bearing? Left side is OK. If anyone has a service manual, I will be glad for this.

    I want to minimize unnecessary disassembly.

    Thank you for your help :-)
    Do you need only how to remove the right side cover, or also full bearing replacement procedure and bearing part number?
    Yes.
    Have you already removed any panels/parts, and what exactly is stopping you from getting to the right-side bearing now?
    I removed the right side cover (motor and belt), and I want to minimize unnecessary disassembly.

    You are looking for parts by this number: 31011178. No access to the passive side. I don't recommend this method, but you can and by the simplest line of resistance: https://youtu.be/pegpGM0fpHc?is=cqzyze_LW37_47IE

    Thank you for the fast reply! This solution seems as the easiest way :-D. I think that other solution is disassembly the whole machine, right?

    Well, unfortunately. The tank has to be dismantled.

    There are two methods, either you cut a hole in the housing and then seal it with something, or, if it is to be smooth, you have to remove the tank top from the housing.

Topic summary

LABEL_AI_GENERATED
Discussion about accessing and replacing the right-side bearing on a Candy CSTG 47TME/1-S washing machine. The initial suggestion was to remove the cover and unscrew the bearing, but it became clear that the passive side has no simple service cover with two screws. A bearing part reference was identified, and the advice shifted toward removing the washing unit/tank assembly. It was confirmed that there is no direct access to the passive-side bearing; the tank must be dismantled, or alternatively a hole can be cut in the housing and resealed. The topic ends with the plan to open the cover by making an access hole.
