It is a common fault that the drain fails to work in most machines in a period of time and is the most problematic fault in a washing machine. In all occasions it is important that your observation is most important and so is vital to the identification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that water has leaked then as the drain hose pump/valve and fittings are located on the underside of the machine it is important that you look for possible leaks here. In some cases the drain hose would be clogged at the drain end to outlet of the house and so there will be back flushing resulting in overflow to the outside. Also the drain pump/valve can be clogged. Now remove the drain hose clamps and remove the drain pump/valve, clean the drain pump/valve, use back flushing to clear off all dirt. Now test using power to see if this works and can be simulated. When refitting, the hose must be tightened properly. If the pump/valve does not work even with power then it must be replaced. If there is intermittent power to the drain valve/pump then the program controller unit is a suspect.

Finally the washer must be placed with a tilt- use a spirit level- so that all water will drain to the outlet port and thereby there is no residual water remaining.

SOURCE: washing machine says door problem even though door

The door switch is no longer making contact internally or a wire has broken r disconnected. I would verify this with a test meter and replace the switch. Eric

SOURCE: hotpoint aquarius wmf 740 has error code f5 - what does it mean?

I think you mean F05, in which case it means that the pressure switch is jammed on full.
You need to remove lower rear panel of washer.
Remove large black hose on bottom of drum.
Remove and clean filter inside hose.
Remove hose onto pump, and check for blockage or obstruction here as well, and look inside the pump.
This should solve your problem.

Hotpoint wmf 720 H20 fault

If it tries occasionally to fill on rinse for a short time and pumps out/drains if the hose is flat on the floor but the programming seems off, its the motor carbon brushes worn down.
To prove it if you have no spares, remove the brush holders and gently stretch the carbons out of the holders a little bit so that they touch the commutator in the motor when refitted. The copper pigtail will usualy give about 2mm stretch if you are careful.
It will maybe work for a few days whilst you get new brushes.

I have an aquarius plus, wf740. i bought in 2005. the problem , i have today is; it will not drain out.and it is displaying a code FL-05. can you help, cf

I have just fixed my washing machine with the same fault. As yours, my machine would not drain though it would wash, i changed the pump and it was exactly the same. Eventually, after much hair tearing out I took the Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} pipe exiting from the drum off and found a hankie blocking the pipe, job done!!!

F-05 flashes up and water not draining out

An F-05 error message means that the pressure switch is jammed on empty or a problem with pump.


The fault is associated with drain out (pump blocked or restricted in some way).

Small panel at rear of machine reveals the pump, pull of the two pipes (Plastic clips hard to get off, slide them sideways), remove wire and unclip pump from base of machine by lifting locking tab and sliding to the left, pump can then easily be cleaned.
