Re: Water leaking from Hotpoint WF840 soap drawer when filli

Well, I removed the soap tray, took the top off and left it to soak in limescale remover overnight, thinking the jets might be blocked and that might be causing water to spray out at sideways angles and escaping out the sides, but no muck or scale really came out of it. I think it was worth a try though.
In the end it was just a combination of raising the front of the machine (more than I thought I would have to) and reducing the flow of water coming in 😐

Re: Water leaking from Hotpoint WF840 soap drawer when filli

Hello Martin,
I’ve got the housing out and I’m looking at it now and as you might expect, it’s really no different from the day I bought it. They don’t really get much wear and tear do they? I’m not sure what part of it could perish or stop working..?

Ah yes – thanks.
I followed the link within that thread and found richardable’s helpful post describing where the filter is. I think I can see it in my machine so I will attack it later on.
Thanks
