Hotpoint Aquarius wma 58?

Spins but does not drain fully. Half inch of water in the drum at end.
Seems to be OK on cool 30 deg wash. I have replaced pump and checked for blockage.

Thanks Dannyboy
I removed the filter and ball and found it OK when I removed the pump.
I will check for a coin in the drain pipe.

Thanks again.

Have you checked the filter? Some hotpoint filters are located in the big black sump hose (the one that leaves the bottom of the outer drum and connects to the pump). Remove the back cover, locate hose, remove the tensioner clip by squeezing the tabs together with a large pair of pliers or vise grips, remove the hose, take out filter and clean. Be prepared for spillage of water. May help if the machine is tilted backwards at an angle. Also run a stick from one end of the drain pipe to the other to check for a coin in the pipe
