Hotpoint Aquarius WD420P temperature too hot

[javanote]

Hi,

My Hotpoint Aquarius WD420P (washer/dryer) gets way hot during washing, the clothes come out steaming... It doesn't matter how I set the temperature, they all come out the same way. The hot dampness doesn't make my clothes any fresher!

Maybe needless to say but the built-in dryer has the same problem: clothes are steaming hot and damp instead of dry (or even relatively dry).

Could this be a filter/clogging problem? Is there anything I can have a look at myself?

Thanks for your help!

have a look at the water in hoses
are they cold to cold & hot to hot.
or if cold only then is it the cold tap ??

Thanks!

and oops, I just used the number it said on the front of the machine...

Apparently it's actually a WD420P.

I will check the board again if there's anything already posted, but do reply if you have any ideas!

depending on the serial number it could be hot and cold or cold only,setting the temp does not set the temp thats for hand wash only .when you put it on 40 thats the temp it washes at same as 60 etc .when you put it on dry do you here water going in for 20 secounds
