Help washing machine not working


catmag

Recommended Posts

I have a HOTPOINT AQUARIUS+ WML 730. I put a wash in last night and realised that the machine wasn't going past a certain point, I then tried to switch off and see if it would start again and it did but from the beginning of the cycle, again it stopped at the same point which was the rinse. This morning I've had to drain the machine manually and that's about it. Door won't open till the whole cycle is complete

Plz help as I have clothes in there that are needed.

Hi


It does sound like the filter is clogged up. This is usually at the botton of the appliance behind a clipped on panel. On removing this you should see an unscrewable filter unit made of plastic. Remove this after putting some old towels down and clean this if need be. Replace it exactly how you removed it. If the filter is already clean on removing this is not your problem, but if it is hey presto.


Thanks

never known a machine to stop at a certain stage only when there has been a problem with the curcuit board . the machine would leak if the filter is blocked as it would be holding too much water .this is my expirence with machines i have repaired so many now i would have clue as to how many .sometimes you can brush the board and that sorts it

Hi pps


Happen to me in the past kept stopping at the rinse cycle and just retained all the water in it. Had to manually drain. After wondering what had happened thought to check the filter, which I never knew it had until I read the manual. Did this and it was clogged with fluff. Cleaned and replaced it. Just started working fine.

pps all machines do that now. They stop when they can't drain. That's why the filter also has a drain tube, so you can drain the machine before you clear the filter. I'm suprised you don't know that if you repair machines, and especially given the board is the most expensive thing to replace.

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
