Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 I think ours has died :-( It's only 14/15 months old but all of a sudden when it comes to the spin cycle it just won't stop. Very strange and the nappies came out although they looked clean they didn't smell clean. Yuk. So me thinks I shall be taking a trip to the launderette this evening to do a couple of loads. Now where's my yellow pages need to find a man that can sort of my spiny thing.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 , this is me!!!! Except that mine won't spin in the first place and all my washing is sitting in a load of water, probably rotting away as I type. I have a lovely little man who lives across the road and has fixed my tumble dryer, Vax and vacuum cleaner before, and someone told me he is great with washing machines, too. I have left a message on his answerphone and am just waiting for him to get back to me. So why am I blocking the telephone line by playing on the puter?!

If so it shouldn't cost too much to fix. In the mean time: If you can open the washing machine and have just wet washing, not loads of extra water. Try halfing the load and trying to spin again, this may work. - got the T-shirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Thanks, , but I have tried all the programmes and I can't get it to spin at all. I can't open the machine without flooding my kitchen either. Having avoided the floods caused by overflowing rivers, I'd rather not have a DIY one! Tame repair man coming tomorrow.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Are you able to drain by taking the hose out of the outlet at the back? This is how I drain off when I`ve forgotten to clean out the filter (oops)...then another spin sometimes clears it enough to open the door, barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Will you lot stop talking about washing machines going wrong. My WM is obviously reading my emails because despite being brand new it has just stopped 10 minutes into its drying cycle and I have retreived a couple of hot and steamy towels to hang over the radiators... hoping it is just objecting to the weight and heat the towels produce otherwise I am going to be for a mad rushed repair before my housesitters arrive next week. Aaargh.... Sue H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2000 Report Share Posted October 17, 2000 > Well they say things come in threes don't they, so that's Alison, Cerys and myself with dead machines. So hopefully I've not put the curse on any one else. D*** you - it's your fault. It's not dead, but far from well. (;0)) It's suddenly developed a hole, and a dribble, as well as a faulty door.
