Remove the white plastic cover on the back near the bottom. To the right as you look at it their will be a black concertina pipe with a hose clip on its top edge. Undo this and pull the pipe downwards to reveal the filter. There will be a plastic ball inside (which is supposed to be there) remove this and clear out the cr*p.
That thick black slime is called black mold. You need to do a major cleaning on your unit, including checking the water drainage hose to assure that the water is clearing all of the way out and is clean of builduo. Do not waste time in waiting to do this as it will only get worse. Disinfect,
Disinfect, Disinfect. Good Luck.
In case of a problem or clarification or my solution was insufficient, don't hesitate to post me a reply.
If you are satisfied, rate my solution with the "thumbs" or (even better) add a testimonial.
I've just taken the top off mine, unscrew the 2 screws at the back then push the front with the palms of your hands rearwards, it takes some doing and you may need to get your fingers underneath the lid at the back and just give it a good pull!!
Water can leak if there are gaps on the front
door gaskets and must be checked but this will happen only during the cycle and
not on the drain cycle end.
It is
possible that the machine does not start off the cycle because there are errors
due to feedback from the inputs. For the program to start up the main program
controller must initiate the INLET/MOTOR/DRAIN
pump/ valve to open up and allow each function to be driven starting from
the flow of water into the drum as also the drain valve to open to exit the
water at the point of the program cycle. If this does not happen then the
voltage at the valve/motor/pump must be checked or the fault relates to no
voltage from the controller. This means
the controller is a suspect.
If the
water flows though the inlet then the flow pressure should be good, if not the
inlet valve is bad or there is dirt in the filter. Also check the flow at the
inlet of the water line. Once the water comes into the system the WATER LEVEL
SENSOR - normally a pressure switch- must activate at the preset/chosen level
to give the signal to the program controller to switch on the motor. What is
most important for the motor to start functioning is that the door switch must
be ON when the door is shut or this will be an error for starting the motor for
rinse and wash.
Hi man - heres the fix if ever your WD440 stops and wont spin - and the off/on light flashes along with a couple of other lights like crease free etc etc.
Basically take off the bottom part of the back of the machine, its plastic - about a one foot by half a foot rectangle.
Oh yeah - plug it out :)
Look in the machine - you'll see a large jubelee clip or hose clip, google these for pictures if your unsure what they look like.
It will be connected to a wide - teenager size fist - black hose.
unscrewing the jubelee clip will losen this off.
pull the black rubber hose down to disconnect from the drum.
Get the mop - there will be a flood.
look inside the black hose, there will be a beutiful bounty in it - in my case I got 1 Euro 28 cents in a vast array of coins, a piece of sticky tape and a hair clip, which is ironic as I am bald.
fix the black thing back to the drum, retighten the jubelee clip, fix the plasic shell back onto the back of the machine... plug machine back in... push machine back into position.... taking care not to slip on wet floor.
approx fix time... 2 hrs to google for this solution, and then 5 mins fixing machine - 40 mins mopping floor.
The error code F03 indicates that the wash thermistor is open or short circuit.
Check heater element and thermistor,if ok, then you need to call an engineer.
press and hold on off button till the display panel lights up.Then press and hold the on/off button and the start /cancel button together.You will now reset the washing machine settings.And just pick your cycle again
