Re: indesit dg6145 slimline

thanks iadom for replying, silicone wrapped around the base of the plug would that block off the overflow? I understood it stopped the water seeping away into the lower section through the plug. Thanks for the other tip, even tho I never use 3 in 1 as I was told they were a waste of money anyway.
what a great site and thanks for the wonderful advice,
best wishes mogs

Re: indesit dg6145 slimline

Hi penguin, thanks for your reply. Well I bit the bullet and called in our famous chinese man in the area, a wonder at fixing all sorts and very reasonable. He’s just arrived and left and its working. He took the bottom spinner off, took out the plug that held it and said ‘be back in a minute’, came back with some silicon glue put it on the plug somewhere couldnt quite see, put it back, spinner back on, and ‘voila’, water came slushing in and made all the right noises. Yes it cost £25.00 for 2 mins but he is a known genius, and I thought the £25.00 (albeit I can ill afford) was worth knowing what to do if it should happen again. A common problem I believe the bottom plug works loose over years and it leaks water, therefore it wasnt filling the machine to activate the floater cut off switch, this is how I understood it from a chinese speaking man. Anyway a tip maybe for others and thanks again for responding.
best wishes
