Tested Earths With Meter, But Not Sure If It'S Safe.

Thanks, but it appear to be all plastic. Only the pump motor would be metal, and I'm not sure how to check that.

AND

Only the main electric motor and the pump motor didn't register, and they are insulated from the chassis. Anyone know how I can check them to see which is faulty?

With the power turned OFF and wash machine unplugged, test the insulation resistance from L and N, on unplugged cord, to motor and pump metal frame. The insulation resistance should be quite high.

Thanks. I'll give that a go.

So now it's earthed through a casing wire and the plug wire. Seems to be OK now, so not sure where the problem was.

Sounds like problem solved. You may have "fixed" the problem simply by turning it over and disloging any bug nests, cobwebs, and/or dust that can be the cause.
