    Okay my new hypothesis is that the pressure switch is faulty. It’s now filling up, sitting for a minute, draining, and that’s it. No spinning or anything any more.

    I’ve read that the pressure switch can cause this issue, so I tested it by checking for continuity over each of the 3 pairs of conductors, then did the same whilst blowing into the switch. No difference in continuity whatsoever (only the first and third prongs were connected, in both tests). This leads to my hypothesis that this is the fault.

    The main issue with this hypothesis is that the machine still fills up, stops filling up, and drains. If the pressure switch were faulty surely it either wouldn’t fill up at all or would continue filling until it flooded the house? Unless there is some kind of protection built into the machine to detect an abnormally high water level and cut off filling the machine? Does this exist at all?

    Thanks again for any help anyone is able to provide!
