New problem occuring with this machine now after i initially cleared out the drain pump and began to work – every time I attempt to perform a wash cycle it works but after a few mins (the times fluctuate each time) it shorts out the electricity.
i remedied this (well, i though i did) by replacing the fuse in the plug, checking all connections are connected and blasting it with the hair dryer to clear out any a#standing water and it works, but the same problem re-occurs the next time.
any ideas what the problem may be and will it be worth getting Hotpoint out?
