bkkandrew Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Bl00dy thing has packed in. Won't empty, seems the spin cycle not reponding. Before I chuck it out, does anyone know of an inexpensive repairman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgs2001uk Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 usually on the front of the machine at the bottom there will be a small door/panel for you to open, open it and unscrew the nut, when you unscrew it it releases the excess water, sometimes something such as a coin gets jammed in the works, remove whatever was blocking the machine. it is recommended you check your machine this way at least once a month.

Been there, done that. Enen shoved a piece of wire up to probe for blockages further up... It seems that the 'spin' cycle simply doesn't commence mechanically, even though it shows as having done so on the control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candoman89 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Whenever that used to happen to me I just changed the solenoid and presto. its a boxy type thingy that the hoses ultimately plug into with usually black valves. Take it out and bring to any of the storefront hardware stores (usually run by little old chinese ladies) and they will have what u want. a $2 part...............not worth throwing out the baby with the bathwater (so to speak).
