Washing machine keeps stopping

I have a Zanussi Jetsystem 1600 washing machine which keeps stopping and bringing up an error message E20 - what does this mean? Yes our Kenmore 3.8 cu HE4t keeps giving us a SUDS error or a blocked drain error. The drain is not plugged so I'm thinking its a filter or clugg actually inside the machine. How to I fix this?

E20 not draining error. Since you checked filter at bottom right corner for blockages, then maybe the drain pump has gone faulty or something jammed in it. You can also check the drain hose for kinks or blockages. You can try blowing out any cloggs in the machine with an air compressor.

Please let me know if you need any further help, otherwise good luck on fixing your problem.

Hello,

Error code E20 relates to the pump/filter blocked.Drain the water either manually through the filter or drain hose.Check that filter is clean and pump can turn by hand.

Hope this helps.

I have taken out the filter and washed it thoroughly! Also flushed the out pipe to make sure the whole system was clean. This resolved the problem

Washing machine keeps stopping

pull the machine out and put the drain hose into a bowl to empty the water out when you have emptied it try cleaning the pump filter and check the drain system for blockages if that is ok then it looks very much like your door interlock is duff good luck and rate me.....

Zanussi jetsystem 1200 wahser dryer problem

You usually turn off your inlet valve after your washing is done. Well, if it keeps filling after u hv turned off, you have a problem with your inlet valve, which you should replace.

ZANUSSI WASHING MACHINE

seems to be a problem with the filter. was with mine.. one thing i always forget to clean it regularly.
Be careful when open the little hatch thingie , there will be water coming out . so prepare with a bakingtray and kitchen towels. and open it SLOWLY!!! so the water doesnt totally soak the floor.
then clean clogged up filter. at least that solved the problem in my case, hope it works
