My washing machine drum slowly fills with water

My Tricity Bendix washing machine drum slowly fills with water when not in use. Why is this? The machine works fine but when not in use it gradually collects water in the drum at the rate of 4 or 5 cup fulls overnight. I've checked the filters which seem ok.

Tricity Bendix AW1260W - drum won't turn - 5 beep error repeats

Washer motor control board failure is the likely problem, also check all connectors for signs of burning. Also test the washer motor.

Machine will fill and turn slowly but will not

Check motor capacitor first.Try moving the drum and see there is no extra friction. If your washer has got braking mechanism check the brakes also. ( I have no idea about this model regarding break)

I have a Tricity Bendix AW1000W. The drum will not rotate. The belt is fine, the brushes on the motor seem ok, the machine fills with water ok and the pump drains it ok but there is no drum wash rotation...

Could be anything , from a loose connection or broken wire to a control board or timer fault..You say the brushes are o/k, but if they are less than 3 or 4mm long, they need replacing.
Even the motor itself could be faulty.
I assume the drive belt is o/k, and correctly tensioned..
It is difficult to advise you further because thier are too many variables involved.
Please leave your comments on my suggested solution.
Thankyou.

Tricity bendix aw1400w will not spin

We had a similar problem, where it washed okay but didn't spin and just 'beeped' with end light flashing. When the drum was empty it was not moving round very freely.
Try unplugging the machine from the electricity. Then take top off machine off so you can see the casing outside the drum. There's a small rubber tube on top. If you disconnect that you can look through into the drum. Try turning the drum round slowly while looking through the hole. We found a sock wedged in which we managed to pull out through the hole (not easy and don't expect the sock to come out in one piece).
It worked - and we've had to repeat the procedure a couple of times now. Think I must be putting too much in the machine in 1 go, although there's always space at the top.
