[pauls]

anyone know anything about washing machines a customer phoned, i dont want to turn her away even if i turn up and confirm an engineer is needed i need every customer i can at the moment.

problem is the washing machine wont drain, anyone got any ideas

When did she last clean the drain filter in the machine?

underneath the machine is the drain pump, remove the flexible hose from machine, lower it to floor level in a bucket, most water will drain out. locate pump remove from wmachine, it will have toothpicks, clothes pegs, or something weird blocking the impellers.

You should be able to remove only pump head with impeller and motor attached,if all clear just replace pump head

Ok so there was a few washers,screws & rawplugs, the good news was they also found £5 in change 😀

You might be a bit short of cash Winston, but money laundering as well as Plumbing? 🙂 🙂

All the little repair shops seem to have disappeared,so now get most stuff on line.I use

eSpares - Spare Parts & Accessories for Electrical Appliances


good for finding missing hob handles and broken cooker handles,easy to use without having part numbers
