Candy CD797 Smart Leaking underneath

[Stew]

Hi,

For the last two days this (9 year old machine) has left a pool of water on the floor. No sign of the leak being of long standing judging by the floor under the machine. Hard to estimate quantity but maybe a mug full?

It seems to be functioning fine otherwise and the water seems to be coming from the right hand rear area (as viewed from the front). I’ll run it later and see at what stage in the cycle the water leaks – water seems clean but smells very slightly of detergent/bleach.

I know there are many possible causes but just wonder how best to access the internals (once I have unplugged the thing 😀 )

Also if there are any likely issues specific to this machine?

I want to fix it if I can but don’t think I can justify the cost of an engineer for a mchine this age!

Thanks

Stew

This one of those slightly impossible questions, I’m afraid.

Circulation pump seal, vent seals through the side, water into the fan housing, hoses to the fill chambers are all possible suspects.

Observation required.
