Why water left in drum after washing cycle - Zanussi ZJ1217 Front Load Washer

SOUNDS LIKE A WATER PUMP CLOG AND CHECK THE HOSES TOO

There could still be water in between the drums. Have a look at the filter, pump and all outlet pipes for a blockage. the excees water that you have when you have clothes in will be what's left in the clothes, wih the machine empty you may just be seeing what shows above the inner drum.

Thanks for the quick responses.Pulled front cover,ran a load on high level, no leaks .Ran a load on super level and when drum spins when full of water water level rose and poured out of left front side on top of drum. Pulled plastic ring on top of drum and and found piece of seal missing where leak occured .Ordered upper tub seal, should solve problem

first things first we need to purchase a cleaning tablet from local grocery store called affresh tablets in your laundry detergent aisle ,

then clean out filter sump assymbly in bottom corner of washer som washers have an axcess panel in the bottom righ or left hand corber uncrew filter cap and drain in to bucket or a shop vac .

clean debris out of filter and reinstall the filter screw cap in tightly ..

check your console for a clean cycle option in your wash cycles an select put one affresh tablet inside of washer drum and run cycle..

if you dont have a clean cycle thats ok select your hotest water wash cycle or sanitary cycle put one affresh tablet inside washer drum and run cycle ...

after cycle completes always leave waher door cracked open when washer is not in use ,,, reccomend running an affresh cycle once every month or if u notice stagnant water smell the more often you wash with hot water the less chances of smell

Either the pump is not emptying the machine quickly enough, or the drum is not spinning. This could also be because there is too much water left in the machine. Check that the drain hose is not blocked and that water is draining/pumping out of the machine. A partial blockage will extend the drain period and the machine may not have time to empty the drum...Good luck......Nomess

The machine will not its spin cycle if there is any water left in the drum, check to see if the drum is actually pumping out, if it is not it could be either a blocked pump, a burnt out pump motor or faulty lrvrl control switch.

Best of Luck

machine wont spin just turns back and forth

Sounds like either you have a blockage in the drain pump or the drain hose is blocked.
The washing machine will run the drain pump for about 2 to 3 minutes to empty water from the drum then stop automatically.
If the pump is blocked or the drain hose blocked or kinked then water will be left in the drum.
Blockages are usually caused by buttons, bra wires or metal objects from pockets eg coins.
The pump can be popped open using simple tools ie screwdriver and any obstruction removed easily. The drain hose can be detached and a metal object eg knife dropped through to test for a blockage.

Some water yes. a lot of water no.As long as the water stays below the wash tub you should be OK.
You might want to pull your water pump off and check for a restriction.
