Washing Machine Problem

gallyer · 2012-06-27 21:46:36

My washing machine, Hotpoint Aquarius, has been giving me problems over the past few days. First it wouldnt drain, I checked the drain pipe and thought I had resolved that issue, but since that it is now totally stopping mid cycle. Does anyone have any ideas what I should be looking at to resolve this? Cheers.

it should drain a few times mid cycle, sounds like your pump is either bucked or you have a blockage.
