Hi Rocks,
I have the same problem - I have cleared the filter but the machine does not go past the wash cycle before coming up with the same issue. Forgot to put the ball back in on the first go - have now done that. Any suggestions as to what to do next?

This is the second time I have had the
f05 lights 2&4, pressure sw stuck on full
fault. The first time I got a chap in, he showed me the issue and fixed it. This time I thought I would give it a go myself. Managed to unblock the filter. Forgot to put the ball back in when I reassembled. The pump seemed to work (as I also didn't tighten the outlet pipe back on well enough) and thus the floor got soaked again. Anyway, the ball is now back in, but I am still getting the same fault.
I note from some other posts that you have done on other machines that potentially this could be a pump issue. Is the pump the thing after the filter? Where would I order an additional part from?
Any assistance would be gratefully received.
Thanks

Yes the pump is in the corner next to the sump / filter. It's got a plastic cap on it and 2 wires go to it. Have you taken the pump out and check there's nothing jamming the impeller. Ie elastic band / bra wire. Undo the 2 hoses to check. Pump you can buy anywhere eBay or google its about 20 quid.
Rocks - thanks I shall go and try and disassemble it!!
Rocks - one of my girls hair clips - just doing a test wash now - hopefully the pump will work else I'll get a new one. Thanks for your help!
