my machine has just been moved from one house to another 4th floor flat today,and upon using it it seemed to work fine then it tripped the switch on that circuit ,it then seemed to work fine to just spin if i put it on that part of the cycle.now about half hour later it trips off immediately that i turn the power on,first time it happened it actually had time and i could hear it start filling then it tripped after 2 minutes or so. Each time i tried after it got shorter and shorter till noe it just shorts out.

you say tripped the switch?... are you talking about a circuit breaker???.. I was thinking maybe you have a bad breaker... If you had no problem before... maybe try in a differt plug in reciptical...

if the washer has a short.. hard to find sometimes..like looking for needle in hay stack..

- Did any water spill out when u loaded it??
did you try a new place to plug in...making sure not a bad breaker?


well maybe start at the water valves... you said it started to fill and then triped the breaker?.. so that means nothing else had power at that time just the w. valves... unplug the cold see if hot will work visa virsa
