I assume the machine is still FULL of the wet stuff OK.turn off power to machine. Then get a empty washingup bowl remove drain pipe from standpipe lower end into bowl water should flow out fairly quickly if not filter on front of machine BLOCKED with fluff /lint ect (YOU WILL HAVE TO EMPTY THE BOWL A FEW TIMES,) WHEN machine is empty besides cleaning out fluff filter remove and clean pump housing and impeller make sure the impeller turns freely and no leak stains on gland seal if there is invest in a new pump only a matter of time before old pump fails due to leakage
