could this be conected?

Question

my washing machine wont drain the water out, or go on to a spin cycle, my machine is under a year old, i also just had a new bathroom suite installed, and was wondering if the plumber has done something could this just be a coincidence as the machine was working fine until he was here

i have tried to phone manufacturer, but they are closed until monday. "typical"

Answer 1

It won't spin until it has drained, seems like the pump has jammed. Look in the book for instructions on clearing pump blockage, may be that a coin or a hairpin is jamming the impeller.

Answer 2

the machine should still drain and spin the plumber had nothing to do with the machine not working sounds to me like an electrical problem not a plumbing problem. first thing i would do was check the switch timer on the machine those have a tendency to go out no matter how old it is

Answer 3

I think its the washing machine. My old one did this a few times. Make sure there is nothing trapped in the filter, and if not try the waste pipe as this can sometimes get clogged up.
Good luck

Answer 4

Sounds like coincidence unless he blocked a common pipe. But then your bathroom wouldn't drain either.
Check to see if it will spin without water in, if it wont then its your washer.

Answer 5

if the machine is under a year old then get the manufacturer to come out and look at it under the guarentee, if no probelm found, then get back to plumber

Answer 6

when my washing machine wont drain its usually because there is a blockage in the waste pipe.

Answer 7

I think it's the machine

Answer 8

Hi,I had same problem my washer had blocked with dog hairs.Sorry you will have to wait untill Monday.

Answer 9

i think its just coincidence
time to call the repair man i think!
