Hello,
Have a problem with this washing machine - on the back of the washing machine where the blue and red inlet pipes connect for the water. The blue is fine but there's an issue with the red pipe.
If the red pipe is screwed up tight, there are no drips. But just the force of pushing the washing machine back, or the force of intake of water by the machine, or just wiggling the pipe, ever so slightly turns it anticlockwise and we get a drip which I can't seem to get to stop no matter how tight I tighten the pipe in the first place.
We did have a recent issue in the kitchen where all our flooring became damaged after a flood from the washing machine, presumably due to the red pipe working loose over time. Now it's happened again.
Any ideas on how I might be able to fix this? I've tried multiple pipes, and the tape with can be applied to the thread - neither worked.
Thanks!
David
