Default Water in washing machine

I have a new Hotpoint washer / dryer. It's only about a month old.

Before I shout at the supplier, has anyone any ideas why after use and
being empty (dry), it will gradually fill up with water even when
powered down.

Could it be a water pressure problem?


Could be, but more likely either a faulty solenoid valve or perhaps
some crud stuck in it. Try taking out the filter in the valve inlet
and checking that before calling the repair man.


I have had several washing machines / dishwashers in this house and
never had this problem before.
