WD 51 First Edition Hotpoint Washer/Dryer

[colin5705]

This is a fairly old machine now, I don't know how old possibly 15 years.

I have replaced a few bits & pieces of the years, the last being the discharge pump a few months ago.

Now the machine seems to miss the rinse cycle, it simply continues on 'til the end, not spinning and stops full of water. It does try and spin but being full of water it can't get up to speed. After putting it through a several cycles, the rinse and spin kicks in and the machine empties.

I intend pulling it out and checking the discharge pump connections. Any suggestions what else to check as pulling this thing out and putting it back is a bother? I don't want to be doing every night.

Regards,
Colin.

If its that painful to drag in and out probably best to check everything.

Clean filter / drain pump / sump / internal hoses / waste hose to sink / sink trap.

Check the pressure switch opens and closes and hose is clear of blockage and water.
