    Hi, Whirlpool AWM049 Washing Machine Water Stop LED Problem……My washing machine starts to run the cycle and makes the usual noises to begin with (ie loading water) this is then followed by the “Water Stop light” *LED* coming on and then a repetitive sound of what I think is water trying to be pumped into the drum ??? this will continue until it’s switched off. This is only 3 ish years old and is the 1st problem Ive had……hope you nice people can help me ????? Thanks Debbie.

    could be you have a leak as these ones have a float in the base and will put the pump on if the base fills up with water if you tip the machine you may find water comes out of the base best to get it checked out dont forget to unplug first 8)

    thanx for your response. You were 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} correct it seems to be leaking from the outer plastic drum in about 2 or 3 places which seems strange … just dripping leaks but collectivly building up and raising the float and activating the micro switch….. is it worth replacing the drum or is this now DEAD ?

    THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP…. 😀
