Thanks so much for this-worked perfectly. Found some plastic wrapping in my filter.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

[@richardhume2785]

Excellent video! Thanks for the know how. Unfortunately, I just found a load of gunk and some fabric, no 10 pence

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No richer then! Still at least it’s a good find anyway 😎

Thank you, washing machine now draining

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Great news 😎

[@LordBonesaw]

I find soaking the dispenser draw in toilet bleach for 10 minutes gets rid of every bit of dirt

[@gilessim]

Thank you, out hot point is 10 years old and never failed until today with a drum full of water, it’s in a corner with the dryer on top and the fridge next to it but still managed to tip it backwards enough to get a bowl under it and low and behold the filter was full of a mass of hair and bits of plastic! Cleaned it all out and it’s running fine again now. I was just about to go to Curry’s and buy a new one but realised I had to get the water out somehow anyway so found your video, you’ve saved me a new washing machine today!

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Now that is a fabulous result! So glad you found my channel. 😎

[@themoocher3029]

Iv got a brand new washing machine and mines not draining at all iv got a Hotpoint it’s connect too under the sink any ideas?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

How odd. If it’s brand new and the hose is connected then it should all work. It could be faulty.

[@The88Nomad]

Why does the intro remind me of the Bravo channel on NTL!???

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Don’t know, I’ve not got that Channel on my TV

[@kat7777]

Never buy a Hotpoint basically OR a Samsung

[@Godsadvoc8]

Now you tell me 🤭

[@TinhaRolfsdotter]

Hotpoint is the worst machine ever. Loved my Indesit bug can't find it here anymore

[@prabhkaur6893]

Hiii.. My washing machine doesn't take water..

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Check the mains cold water feed pipe, make sure it's not kinked. Check if there's an inlet filter where the hose goes in, this may be blocked up

[@bedebill]

the valves fail they are cheap to replace

[@bikerfirefarter7280]

You didn't explain/show how to diagnose or change an actually faulty pump motor.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No I've not made a video on that unfortunately. Good luck

[@robertkimball9282]

It's a older Hotpoint

'Lurgs, have you been using my toothbrush 4 cleaning the washing machine again?' This gets me dying every time 😹😹

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Yeh those toothbrushes are so useful though!🤣

[@janetmowatt-tomlinson3437]

Thank you so much for this information. I followed what you said and my washing machine is working again. Thank you

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Fantastic news, so glad my video helped you out.😎

[@sp-pz8uc]

Lots of Hotpoints. Thank you.

[@CartooonTHAT]

let me guess, partners toothbrush???? indeeed LOL. and that deserves a cuppa tea.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Of course!😎👍🏻☕️

[@elizabethrg7582]

Thanks so much for this - you make issues like these a lot less scary! Unfortunately my 10-year-old Hotpoint washer had a knackered drainage pump (and kept throwing F05 errors) so a repairman had to be called out, but I felt a lot better knowing I'd been able to narrow the problem down thanks to you making this video. Subscribed! Merry Christmas 🌲

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

It’s done well at 10 years. Thanks for subscribing and Merry Christmas to you too.🎄

[@davidriddell972]

Wahey..... your thorough clean prompted me to get down and have a real proper look and yes..... a flipping hair tie wrapped right round there. From a DIY loser.....Thanks mate helped me right out.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Good find, amazing how much stuff gets into the filter! Glad to help and glad it’s all sorted.😎

[@lordlopper69]

Thanks Lurgs - just took the filter out and found an elastic band that has been impeding the spinning thing which has been gradually worsening the draining out over the past couple of weeks. This was an excellent step by step guide for me, much appreciated!

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Fantastic news, good find that. Glad it’s all working again.😎

[@tallulahcc]

Hi Lurgs, I have an indeset washing machine , the standpipe is 66cm from the floor, the pipe going from the back of the machine on the left to the standpipe on the right, it goes horizontally across back of machine and down into the standpipe, my washing is now not draining even in a spin.. is the standpipe too low please? Would that be a problem? It was like this when I moved in.. Thanks for any advice Lurgs! 😊 I've checked the filter.. really clean.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No that should be ok as water is pumped out and the weight of the water should make it flow and move. Maybe the pump has failed or there’s a blockage in the drainage hoses

[@akirahrisi221]

Hello, how did you got the coin out? We have the same problem but we are unable to get anything out whatsoever

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

You should be able to see any debris in there and flick it out with a flag bladed screwdriver or something similar. Or a small grab claw which people use when they drop screws into engine bays etc

[@learnafrancis609]

I tried to take off the filter and it’s been put on so tight I have now snapped it, is there any way of getting it off or do I need to call someone in now. Thanks.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

You may be able to turn it using pliers then simply buy a new filter, but beware of lots of water. Good luck

[@learnafrancis609]

Thank you. I ended up trying with the pliers, that’s how I broke it. Thank you.

[@bexhand2968]

Hey what do you do if you just can't open that bit more than a slight turn? Mine won't turn more than a quarter turn and I just don't want to force it in case I snap something

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Do you mean the drum won’t turn?

[@bexhand2968]

@Lurgs How To Guides sorry, no the drainage port thing you untwisted and found the coin in

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

@@bexhand2968 Oh I see. It’s bound to be a metal hair clip. Best bet is keep tightening then untightening until hopefully it clears. Good luck

[@bexhand2968]

@Lurgs How To Guides I tried that with pliers too, but it still stops turning at the same place, so I imagine something is jamming it. Thanks though I'll keep trying 😏

[@sp-pz8uc]

You go down the pub and get hammered and when you get back, you won't care. Simple.

[@bedebill]

I found a coin and thought i'd done it ! No look again there was other stuff stopping the Impaller

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Good find. Hope it’s all working again 😎

[@samork123]

Hi, the propeller does spin but Feels like it catches almost elastically on every quarter turn - no obvious culprit though! Any idea?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

It could be a hairband stuck behind it maybe, make sure there is nothing blocking it. Else it could be the pump is faulty.

[@_ra__h]

Thanks for this video😊

My pleasure. Merry Christmas 🎄
