Hi,
My indesit WE125 washing machine has decided that bladder control is a non-neccessity during the rinse cycle and empties itself all over the kitchen floor. Its not a drum seal problem i dont think, as i assume that the same would happen when its doing the detergent cycle. Dont think its a pump either, cos i assume that the same pump is used for both the detergent cycle and the rinse. It only happens when the machine enters the cycle to rinse (with 20 minutes to go or so). Im trying to rack my brains as to what might be causing it. The water comes out from under the machine near the front. Its almost as if the extra water throughput is causing an overflow somewhere, but its not in the detergent tray as the water is flowing out of that at the normal rate. I opened the thing up but i cant see any obvious faults. Anyone got any ideas? Regards Mark |

I know it sounds mad but it worked on mine a couple of weeks ago - no split pipes or anything, same symptoms as yours. It's worked fine ever since. Si |

Have you checked for split door seal (including the rubber folds between the machine front and outer drum)? Might be using a different water valve, e.g. to add the conditioner, which has a split hose or blocked outlet into the powder/conditioner drawer. -- Andrew Gabriel |

Regards Mark take it outside, jack it up on bricks, cobble some inlet hosage together, set it off on a cycle, observe where the water is actually leaking from ? RT |
