In this video we show you how to access, clean, or replace the filter on your washing machine. We're demonstrating on an Indesit washing machine but the procedure will be similar no matter what make or model you have. Replacement filters can be found at: www.ransomspares.co.uk/parts/...

Haha, i just got here after trying to take it off, i figured i'd better watch a video on it before i start ripping it off. I've been using this Indesit (different one than in the video but i assume it'll do the trick) for close to 20 years, so i am also building up the courage to face the Blob.

sorry should have said this is the best video I've found for my new washer/dryer. Most videos show people who tell you such a lot of useless info, they hurt your ears but you keep listening hoping they will eventually tell or show you what you want to know. So thank you this one is excellent

There's no need to remove the four screws. By doing so the connector to the pump came loose and it was a hassle to find out what was wrong with the machine. To clean the filter, leave the pump screwed on as it is!

Really helpful video, the only thing I would say is that we had to use pliers to twist open our filter as there was a lot of limescale build up. So that's just something that people should be aware of but other than that the video is great, thanks.

This was useful for me as the troubleshooting guide that came with the machine said we could have an issue with the pump filter. It neglected to say, however, where I might find the said filter. Got my machine working again but I didn't have to remove the pump from the machine, just twist off the front cap.

Very helpful. Our machine was sounding a beep-beep-beep error when draining. I suspected the filter was clogged. I couldn't open the filter as (it turned out) it was clogged with a colour catcher sheet. This video showed me how to release the pump to get at the inlet pipe. I unclamped it and removed the obstructing sheet. Problem solved Thank you.

This type of plastic cover with plastic notches may anytime break as we need to often open it to drain water. Earlier, it used to be made of Tin which was small in size that need to be pushed from corners to open the cover which was much durable than these cheap plastic cover. It's the manufacturers who want to make more profits so using cheap materials to save production costs of every product right from Flash drives to refrigerators

Might be premature but I think you just fixed my washer! Found a piece of footwear insole and some coins clogging up the filter. I reckon this could possibly be acheived without raising your machine but perhaps only where the unit has already been drained or your fast/patient to catch the exciting liquid. Thank you for your expertise sir!

I too found some coins there. Removed them and put the filter back, now all the water is just flowing out without stopping. I can't understand why. Maybe the previous owner put those coins there on purpose to stop the flow? What do you think. I wish I had not taken out the filter now.

I have had my Indecit for about 15 years and never realised the drain was behind that panel. I have now accessed the drain filter and it was nowhere near as dirty as I'd expected. I always use soda christals in every wash, and I wonder if this is why the filter was gunk free?

The drum is spinning violently and ive found out the front counterweight has snapped. looking at the underside of the appliance, ive noticed that the shock absorbers have 2 location points on the drum. my friend has used the read location point to secure the absorber and they are not verticle in the machine, i cant find any info online to see if the absorbers should have been attatched to the drum at the front location points instead! any info?
