thats not the pressure switch, its a breather hose

the whirlpools have the pressure switch at the front, usually above the door seal

oliver, what DO you do for a living please?

seems to have done the trick though…whats in a name? as long as my missus can wash her clothes then im happy and grateful for the help Higer Water Level gave me…

Re: Whirlpool AWO D049 problem

thanks, blew down through the small hose and it seemed clear, bubbling noise….took big black hose off as well, poured water down it and cleaned it with finger, machine is on test now so fingers crossed…
if it works thanks you very much for your help….if not i will post back when it goes wrong again……

Thanks

Oliver 😉

Thanks…is this the right bit…

i did remove the little rubber tube and it was a little dirty, possibly blocked……

Thanks

Have you tried the pressure switch, if this is blocked the machine will think it is not draining the water out. So it thinks the pump filter is blocked :rolls: !

If not could be a PCB problem, but hopefully not 😕 .

Hope this is some help to you

Hi Thanks,

where would the pressure switch be located? near the pump? been looking for some detailed pictures on the machine but cant find anything yet!

thanks for the info, i will inform her and see how it goes, i am still open to other ideas if any1 has any experience of a problem like this.
