Washing machine humming but nothing else :(

Hi, Our Zanussi ZWF1421 started beeping yesterday mid-cycle, I went into the kitchen and the 'end' light was flashing and beeping. I pressed start again but nothing happened. Now when we pick a cycle and press start, nothing happens except it starts humming/buzzing? I read somewhere on this forum to press and hold the start/pause and another button, which I did and it beeps twice then pauses? I just can't seem to find out what that means! My Dad reckons it's the pump - does it sound like that is likely to be correct and if so, is it repairable?! It's obviously just before Christmas and we really can't afford to buy a new one :( Any help really appreciated! Thanks :)

If you watch carefully, the end light flashes and then stops, and then flashes again... how many times flashes?

SOURCE: Zanussi err problem

Check your exit hose spigot, it may be clogged. This is if your filter is all clean. There should be air for passage in the standpipe behind. Your hose should not fit airtight into the standpipe and neither too deep into it. Snaking out your standpipe would be good too.

Rate me pl.....if helped.

SOURCE: hi my zanussi zwf1432s stopped halfway through

Hello Paula,
Do not know how many flashes but 1green/1red = 11 water pressure low.
2green/1red = 21 blocked filter or pump fault.
You would be best firstly checking the filter and make sure it is clean and pump turns.with water drained and filter out shine torch into filter put on spin/drain and see if pump blade spins if not then try and turn with long screwdriver to free out any debris then refit filter and check for leaks and try donnt fill fully until you are happy it can drain water.
Hope I was of some help.

Good Luck

SOURCE: Hi!

I've had the same problem. I removed the top lit and found some pressure transmitter and a pressure switch. I suspect that the pressure transmitter is use for measuring the waterlevel in the machine. I think the membrane loses its flexibility over the years.
I pulled of the hose from the transmitter and blowed and sucked a few times on the transmitter. After doing this the machine washes without a problem since then.

Hope it helps for you.

Hi how can I disable the alarm beeping constantly at the end of a cycle on a Zanussi Lindo 300 washing machine? Thanks

Page 9 of this manual, if this is the same model, may help turn off acoustic signals. It shows an image of a P and another image of a button to turn off.

Thermostat or heater most likely causes. Does timer button move round without doing anything? Timer knobs on Zanussi notorious for breaking off inside.
