    Hello,

    Moved house and now the Logik K712WM13 washing machine shows the error code E70. It’s not taking in water and sounds like its constantly trying to drain. Any advice appreciated as its not in the booklet and can’t get through to Currys.

    Merry Xmas

    Via the factory service booklet ( not the customer hand book ) E70 does not exist only up to E60 and E61 does, also K712wm13 does not exist but L712wm13 does- a typo? Based on that before you moved the machine it worked just fine. And based that E70 is not listed read the whole of what follows first before doing anything.

    If this was the first wash you tried upon moving in to your new pad 1) make sure the tap is really switched on i.e. if you have one of those blue plastic lever taps the plastic moves but the bit undernneath often doesn`t! = still turned off. And 2) which is also a posibility the pressure switch has water trapped inside it if carried on its side in transit in which case TURN THE POWER OFF TO THE MACHINE, remove work top lid, pressure switch is the round shaped component top r/h/side with the thin hose attached and 3 OR 4 terminals. Pull off this thin hose from the pressure switch DO NOT PULL OFF ANY WIRES. Blow down the thin rubber hose followed by gently blow in to the pressure switch which should click on blow and declick on release of the pressure being released if it doesn`t that`ll be the problem. 3) if no clicks are heard tap the pressure switch with handle of a screw driver then blow in to it again. If lucky the pressure switch will now click and declick. REFIT THE PRESSURE SWITCH HOSE then try to fill on a wash programme. It important that you hang around to make sure that the water cuts off on, say, a cotton fill programme – water a little over or below the bottom of the door seal ( otherwise you`ll get a “Xmas special” = a massive flood as the machine will fill and fill – yeeks! ). 4 Also make absolutely sure that if the machine is plumbed out on to a sink nozzle that the previous owners have not sealed it off by use of a bung or otherwise the machine will not pump the water away. OR 5 if plumbed out down a stand pipe the outlet hose is only down the plastic stand pipe 6 inches: stuffed down to the U bend you risk the syphon of water affect = when the machine does fill it fills as fast as it syphons /drains away ( the same effect happens if the standpipe is not high enough / long enough too ) and I`d check points 1, 4 or 5 before doing anything with the pressure switch check just in case this is all it is.

    Any technical information google Partmaster then follow the links to type in your model, hit the list until you see Service Manual and click GO and a pdf will crop up and all the info is there as a Chinese attempt at an iffy English translation with pictures. No other manufacture makes technical stuff available to Joe Public so count yourselves being rather lucky in this respect, a triumph of post revolutionary Maoist thinking perhaps?
