i have some bad news for you. when using soap not recommended by the manufacture, and you use the machine and use another type of soap or cleaner after you do not run water through the machine to clean the tube and sprayer out of soap the soap drys up and kluges the tubes and the sprayer, and you have to take it to be repaired or buy a new machine. i can test to that the hard way i loaned mine out and it was returned dirty and soap was dried up inside the tube and jets, look at the tube if you see dried up bubbles than the machine needs to be repair and service, service center , sew and vac one place vacuum dealer
If you use the wrong tip when trying use pickup tube, you will force water into the tank. You can only use the low pressure suds tip. There are typically 4 tips- 0 deg, 15deg, 40 deg and a soap tip. You cant pressure wash and use soap at same time.
I'm assuming you can hear the pump motor run, the resevior has washer fluid in it, but there's no spray... correct? Then the problem is most likely a clogged pump inlet screen. You will need to access this pump/resevior from the right hand side wheel well (liner moved out of the way) and disconnect the wiring connector at the pump & the rubber hose at the pump housing. This particular pump is 'snapped' in place with plastic holders as part of the resevior housing and a rubber grommet where the inlet tube of the pump is inside the housing. Once you remove the pump, the inlet screen can be removed & cleaned. You'll also want to flush out the reseviore to clean it. Refill with fresh water & W.W. solvent after you reinstall the pump after cleaning the screen. Reconnect the hose and wiring connector to the pump. before refilling.
Hi Cheryl, to do that open the freezer door,remove kick(toe)plate, on the left side under the hinge you will see a plastic union coupling the tube from the resevior to the tube inside of the door unscrew that union and pull the tubing apart. BE PREPARED for some water in the tubing to come out onto the floor and possibly all the water in the resevior may also come out ontothe floor so have a few towels ready
I suggest you remove the soap dispenser drawer and thoroughly clean it, ensuring that the outlet at the back of the drawer where the water and soap feed into the machine are completely clear of any soap buildup.
Before you replace the drawer, ensure that the water feed into the drawer (this is a pipe or tube above the drawer slot) is not clogged with soap.
Based on your description, the problem is likely the self-rising tube that comes from the base (bottom) water feed tube. It may not be rising to engage the top assembly....
If it fails to rise all the way, the water will just spray into and on it and cause it to wobble versus rotate.
Pull up on the bottom feed tube - just to confirm that it will move freely...... (food, soap scum and age can prevent it from moving freely.) Clean and retry the washer.....
There are 2 versions of the Hotpoint WD640, a cold fill only version, and a hot and cold fill version..
From your question, I conclude you have the hot and cold fill version, which requires a hot and cold fill supply..
I do not understand what you mean by leaking from top banch, perhaps you can clarify.
there should be. its likely a "closed" system, meaning you fill coolant through your resivior tank. look for a plastic "bottle" or "container" next to your radiator, or alond the left side of the engine bay as you face your engine. you should find a cap that says something like "do not open hot- under pressure" on the resivior tank you should see level marks molded into the tank/container. these indicate coolant level at cold and hot. also look for a tube coming out of the tank leading into the radiator. this tube feeds coolant back into your radiator. hope this helps
