    I have the above washer dryer and found it to be fine.

    The last couple of washes have been fine and on one occasion washed the bath mat. Since then I have noticed that after a while I have had water in the drum (just as well the door was shut).

    I know that it has completley dpun before I have removed the washingm but could do with some help and any assistance would be great.

    Thanks

    Clean or dirty water? try turning off the inlet valves on house plumbing. or backfilling from sink waste. raise hose to come down to spigot on sink trap.

    Thanks for the information.

    I left the water on, on Friday night and on saturday there was water in the drum. Last night I turned the water off at the inlet tap and this morning it is all dry.

    I have pulled the machine out since Friday and everything there seems to be fine so it looks like there is a problem with where the water goes into the maching.

    Any further advise would be appreciated.

    Thanks agai

    One of the inlet valves is leaking (hot or cold). Power off if you are going to look yourself.

    Two different valves fitted to this one:

    1604847 – 4 way inlet valve
    1605222 – 3 way inlet valve

    An email to spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk for prices and ordering.

    Remove the mains plug and then remove the two screws at the back of the lid. It is often hard to remove but a sharp rap on the front edge usually shifts it. If you look inside you will see the valve assembly on the other side of the inlet hose, if this has three pipes leading off it then it is a 3 way valve and so on.
