Hello,
I have a 5yr old washer (approx.) that i think has recently not been filling properly. I first noticed that the conditioner tray was not emptying and so i cleaned the tray and the tray enclosure. That didn't work so I tried watering down the conditioner. That didn't work so i tested the siphon and that did siphon, but still didn't empty the conditioner tray.
Then more recently i noticed that the drum didn't fill anywhere near the same level as it used to (i'm sure it used to get full enough to see water on the door!). So I checked that the cold water hose was not kinked, that the drain was clear, that the water pressure to the machine was adequate (about 3.5 bar) and that the inlet filters were clear. Still it refuses to fill properly.
Can anyone suggest what I should check next?
Most other threads I read suggest the inlet valve, but I would like to know how to test them before ordering a new one (if that's the suggestion).
Thanks,
Mike
