How to open the filter

[Ethanpeng]

I have this Hoover Dyn8164 D2x 8G washing machine. It shows E03, I know it is drain problem. I tried to open the filter but funny thing is there are two parts I only can open the outside one but inside the black one is a safe so tight I wonder why they design like this, which means I have to pay to fix it. Anyone came cross this kind of problem?

I am assuming the top has come off the filter leaving the main part inside. probably that blocked that its jammed

This is a similar filter and as you can see the part that is still in is the main body which just pulls out. it must be jammed with debris

[Ethanpeng]

Any chance to take it out? Using a straper?

[electrofix]

I try and work it loose using 2 screw drivers but you must be careful not to damage the housing as it will leak if you do

if all fails then the pump would have to be taken out and stripped to clear it

Two screwdrivers ? It is going to be difficult that is why I will use scraper to have a try . The housing ? You mean the white ring ? I don’t think I will damge it but the black plastic I am not sure thanks

[electrofix]

if you have a gap you can get a piece of stiff wire (like metal coat hanger) bend the last 5mm at 90 degrees and hook it in to pull

if all fails its not too hard to take the pump out as it can be done from underneath

Thank you Dave much appreciated. But pull the black part out ? I am thinking to use scraper to stick in the middle to turn it anticlockwise

[electrofix]

its only a pull now. its only debris stopping it being removed. if it is metal like hair clips etc then you may have to remove the pump to get it out

Thanks Dave worried that there is no gap perhaps

this will give you an idea how it should come out

Yes Dave I have watched some similar ones but nothing is my case. The challenge I face is to take the part out. Thanks Dave

[Ethanpeng]

Thank you Dave I have solved the problem I appreciate your help.

[Ethanpeng]

Sorry Dave the problem back again. It still shows E03 can’t wash I have cleaned the filter alot of coins. I don’t know how to do know

[electrofix]

take out the filter again. with the filter that blocked its possible that there is still some debris in the hose entering the filter from the sump of the machine. I have a small inspection mirror and use a torch to look into the hose to see if anything is there
