Re: Zanussi ZWH6140p stuck after draning cycle
I think I have fixed the problem. (Sorry but despite your warning not to mess with the pressure switch system) I found out how to dismantle were the end of the pressure switch pipe fits into the drum. There is a chamber that runs down to the filter. This was completly blocked with lime scale. I have cleaned it out & at the moment the machine is working fine. Thank you for all your help.

OK I have removed the filter & blown back up the drain hose. There is no restriction & this causes massive bubbles.
Re: Zanussi ZWH6140p stuck after draning cycle
I have blown down the pipe at the pressure switch & I can hear bubbles coming from the housing, which would seem to indicate that it is clear. I have removed the pipe from the housing & inserted a small drill bit into the housing which also seems to be clear. Does this housing come apart somehow it looks as if it does but I don’t want to break anything?
Re: Zanussi ZWH6140p stuck after draning cycle
Thank you for your reply.When I replaced the pump I also checked for any blockage through to the filter, it was clear. The drain hose terminates into a standpipe which is ventilated so if the drain was blocked it would overflow at this point, it doesn’t. The sink drains ok through this drain too. I have seen on-line that it says about checking the sump where the pressure switch pipe is connected, but they show a flexible rubber sump. My model has a solid plastic housing where the pipe is connected. Could there be a blockage here?
