Thanks again. I was going to get a new one, just the washing has been backing up!

Thank you so much. I swapped them over and the pump ran a full cycle (albeit while empty!!) I will get a new one and if I understand correctly I replace the one in the back. It came out with a good hard tug. Also, can I use the machine now as just a washing machine or will the other one...

Sorry, that should be 'silver box'. Also the one in the back the thing next to it, which has a bolt holding it in, has a spade fitting soldered on the back so i can't get a socket over it. I'm sorry to be such a pain. I spoke to a local appliance repair person and their view is 'bin it and...

I'll try that now but the one in the top, on the manifold looking silver bos, is on its own and won't budge!

Hmmm. Am I looking at the right thing? It has a sort of box of black plastic on the end with a cut out semi-circle sticking out to one side (and two blus wires attached to a plug sticking out the back). My 8mm socket doesn't go over it, and it's square! Oh, I have taken the plug and wires out...

I'm going to have another try at getting it out, is there a technique to it as I can't budge it. Also, is the other one in the back at the bottom left of the drum. Thanks

Thanks. Is there anyway of telling whether the thermistor is broken without fitting a replacement or should I just get one and fit it?

Sorry, I'm a bit of a novice, is the heater box in the back (as opposed to at the bottom where the pump is) and obvious to identify? Thanks

Is that something I can do? And if so how? Thanks

Try http://ovendoorglue.co.uk/ I used it a few months ago and it seems to do the trick. Arrived quickly and had everything you need.

My washer drier (Indesit IWDC 6125) isn't draining. The pump comes on for about a second (during which time it expels water) then cuts out. I've taken the pump out and cleaned it, it was gunged and scaled up but there was no actual obstruction, but it still does the same thing. Whirr then...
