    Thank you all for the very informative website.
    I have searched through quite a few of the other posts and can see that the WD12 is not the best machine in the world so no surprises that mine is playing up.


    The issue with my machine is that on setting 3 the machine fills with water but then immediately the drain pump kicks in and drains all the water. It then starts filling again and seems to go in to the normal washing cycle.

    Occasionally I do get the flashing 8 lights and spinning dial but after I reset the machine it stops the flashing 8 and goes into the above cycle of fill-drain-fill.

    I have not tried it on settings other than number 3.

    I have called an engineer due out next Monday but I was wandering if it was something simple that I could fix saving the engineer the journey and myself a few quid.

    Number on the back of the machine…

    You’d best wait for the engineer to call and check it out as there are various possibilities that need eliminating to be honest. 😕

    Our WDE12, (not quite the same machine), has always done this, so I rather assumed it was supposed to for some reason best known to someone else.

    We always use washing liquid & put it straight onto the clothes in the drum so it is not washed away.

    If it’s washing Ok after doing this fill-drain-fill-wash thing, I’d be inclined to cancel the call, save the money and put it toward a better machine next time, (that’s what we are doing anyway! 🙂
