I have the above washing machine. Works fine on 40deg washes. But on 60 or 90 it takes forever to the extent wehre u have to stop it and choose a low wash. I need to be able to do a 90 deg wash.

Any ideas on wot it is thats doin it? I have had an issue with mould in the draw and round the seal of the machine too, i have scrubbed it regularly, and i use the powder tables in the drum. ......

Really appreciate som help. Machine is out of warrenty.

Thanks

what exactly happens?

most m/c fill with hot only for 60+ washes, if yours doesnt i would suspect hot fill valve, kinked hose etc

If i put it on a 60 degree wash u here it filling up and then it just sits there for ages.

Same with a 90. I dont really know much about how to check whats goin on with it. I have cleaned out the bottom filter part, and do so regularly. Just cant work out why it would not work on the hotter ones. Put it this way i put washin machine on a 90 degree wash at 10.30 this morning. it has filled up and is now just sat doing nothing. ? ?

Thanks Gems

needs new heater i should say, since it fills with hot and heats to correct temp, if its not then its heater, or its stat, but its quite common for heaters to fail over time
