our washing machine is not draining on its own. it stops at the point in the programme when it needs to drain and we need to drain it manually, then when it drains it resumes on the programme. please help!

Hi.
your problem is probably caused by a blockage in the pressure system which tells the machine whether theres water in the drum or not. Its a piece of thin tubing which runs from the drum up to a circular switch unit usually located somewhere beneath the top cover. You need to drain the machine, unplug it, disconnect the tubing from the drum and check it for blockages. other possible causes, a blocked filter unit or a faulty pump.

If it is a blockage how can they have manually drained it ?

Dannyboy said a blockage in the pressure tube, not the drain hose.
