Mend Hotpoint WF840 Washing Leak Drum

Hotpoint WF840?

How do i fix my washing machine? It is a Hotpoint Ultima Super Silent. Water is coming into the drum. At first it was not a lot and it would be a few days before I had to switch it on to drain it but now it takes just a few hours and its quite full. Could you please let me know what the problem is and how to get it fixed.
Thank you

I recently had this problem. The machine would fill with water when not switched on. It started happening after having a new kitchen fitted. The water was getting into the machine from the outlet pipe after using the sink.

A friend remembered that the outlet pipe must be higher than the connection to the sink's U-bend. Check that the outlet pipe is hooked up and then angled downwards to the connection on the sink’s U-bend.

It solved my problems and we no longer have flooding.

PS Check for blockages at the connection of the outlet pipe and the U-bend.
