I had a wash on and it was coming to the end of the cycle and it gave a jump then stopped working and the lights were flashing. I was able to turn off the plug switch and get the door open. What could be wrong with it please
Hi
It seems to be a fault with this make of washing machine.
I changed the door lock and that seemed to cure it for a while. However it now seems to be doing it again.
What I have discovered is the following:
Turn the washing machine off completely at the wall and pull the plug out - leave it out for about one minute and then plug it back in and switch on. This should cure the problem and it will work again.
You may have to do this every now and again to clear some fault it has in the circuit board so leave some access to your plug socket.
I hope this helps.

either the level control switch has become blocked or faulty or the drain pump has become stuck.
disconnect from the mains and gain access to the rear look for a circular unit with two or three electrical connections and a plastic tube. this is the level control.follow the tube to its start and you will find a plastic connection that goes into the wash drum, remove the plastic tube from the switch end and blow into it. if there is no restistance then the system is OK at the drum end. next reconnect the tube to the switch and remove the opposite end, very gently blow down the tube and you should hear the switch operate. Test wether the switch is working by putting a meter across the switch and blow into the tube. if all of this is OK then the drain pump is at fault. locate the drain pump. it is connected to the outlet tube, try turning by hand. if it does not rotate smoothly remove the clips holding the pump body together and clear the obstruction.

the problem here is the machine is not emptying when its supposed to, you will find it is stopping at the rinse cycles. there is a sump underneath the machine that needs to be emptied. From my experiences, 9 out of 10 hotpoints that i would of repaired with the same problem as you are having is usualy caused by using the color catcher sheets, they are a disaster.
