    From doing some further research, it suggests that there are 3 water collection spaces….the tray that you empty, the box with the pump in at the rear and another area prior to this inside the condenser….could be possible that water is trapped in the first collection area and that’s why I am getting the h20 error. Maybe the pump is in fact functioning. How can I access this first water collection area? Any ideas? It might be full of fluff…

    Hi Dave,

    I’ll try holding the switch for 5 minutes or so to see whether it kicks in. However, something isn’t working properly because when I run a cycle I keep getting the H20 error and the tumble dryer cuts out. The tubes leading to the water try are free of blockages.

    Any ideas of anything else I could try?

    Still no joy with getting this to work. I did find some minor damage to the pump power cable which I fixed with electrical tape (caused by cable jammed in the pump enclosure. Is there a way I can test the pump/switch is working separately to the machine? Im perplexed…if the pump and switch is working and the connectors are verified to be receiving power from the tumble fryer…what else could it be?

    If I turn on a cycle currently, I just keep getting the h20 error and the machine stops. Presume the h20 error is because the float switch is activated.
