Yesterday my AEG OKO Favorite 4040, pump started to run continuously. Reading through the posts I have taken the advice and drained the undertray. At this moment the machine is running through a cycle and fingers crossed, it’s going to be okay. I know that white goods are not meant to last forever. We got this machine second hand in 1998 and 23 years later this is its first major problem. I had to replace the cutlery basket about two years ago. They don’t build them like this anymore. Cycle finished, All good. Cheers. Happy ’22’.
