    Hoover have problem with the pump as these machines are built in prc so I would change the pump as long as you have chè ked for blockages as suggested above.

    Re: Hoover DXA43WA

    Hi guys, thanks for the great reply’s. So I have had the pump off and the sump hose. Nothing inside the sump or drain hose. Blew down the small pipe from the pressure switch and it didn’t seem blocked.

    I can’t see where the other end of the pressure pipe goes so unable to check for a powder goo build up.

    Did a resistant test on the pump so that’s fine. The machine drains in about 50 seconds but the pump remains pumping until it throws the error code at me. It’s like I won’t stop trying to drain even after it’s drained. Had a guy out to it who didn’t have a clue. He didn’t even look at anything!

    TBH 50 seconds is a long time to drain fully in most cases.
    Is the grey outlet hose connected to the under sink plumbing or does it go into its own standpipe?
    If it is connected to the under sink plumbing then see if you can disconnect it from the plumbing and put the end of the pipe into the sink ( with the plug in the sink ) or into a large bowl or bucket situated at sink level to check on the outflow from this hose. It should come out at full bore.

    Ok well I wouldn’t have done that without performing some sort of test to prove it.

    It’s alright randomly swapping parts out if someone else is paying for them eh

    That’s surprisingly easy to test. Simply check for lateral movement of the impeller. Often the first sign of a pump failing.

    No lateral movement on the impeller and the resistance test proved good.

    Samsung came today so the Hoover is in the front garden waiting for the scrap man unless anybody wants it lol
