20 Most Recent Zanussi FS1255S Front Load Washer Questions & Answers

You could purchase front loader washing machine cleaning chemical or soap. My experience with cleaning chemical and soap was to just masking smell, not fixing the problem. I did a few search and came out with using vinegar, baking powder and bleach is most effective way to clean and get smell out of washing machine. ie run cleaning cycle with 1 or 2 cup of vinegar, let it run for 20 ~ 30 minutes and pause for 30 minutes (it help break it up) let resume and finish cycle. Run cleaning cycle again with baking powder. If your machine don't have cleaning cycle use hot water and heavy load setting. Hope this help you.

there is a float, usually at front left side inside dishwasher, that may be stuck..possibly an utility holding it up, or the fill valve is stuck. When dishwasher calls for water, it fills until this float rises to proper level and shuts the valve off at proper level. If it sticks, water will shut off at improper level.

hi providing you have the right belt. run the belt over the pulley until its tight (it will only go half way round and feel impossible to get on but just run it on like you would cycle chain it takes some effort but once the belt starts to stretch you will find it will go on. just brute force will do it. good luck

Sounds like the pump or filter is blocked, you need to check for blockage, if no blockage, then you need to fit a new pump.

hello have you cleaned the filter out at the front of the washer if ok then you may have a blocked pump or a kint drain hose

sounds like your pump may be gone, or could be pipe blocked. to check pipe fill machine take outlet pipe at rear of machine and lay this into a bowl. If water flows ok then all pipes are clear. As water is coming through just put machine onto spin cycle and raise hose to see if water will then pump out.

Hello there:
This clicking that you a re hearing is either the water solinod valve that is making this noise or the start switch timer that is doing this what you can try to do us to unplug the machine for 30 to 60 minutes then plug it back in and see if the clicking goes away if not you may have to have a certified technician do a full inspection of the unit make the repairs needed on the unit if you have a warranty with this unit you may be able to use it ok?
hope this is very helpful for you
Best regards Michael

check motor brushes.

Unless you can hear it catching as the drum is going round I would leave well alone, it will probably just get lodged near the heater and not cause any problem.
If the m/c has a removable rear panel then you can get access into the drum by removing the sump hose fastened onto the bottom of the drum. you might find it stuck there.
If no removable panel, then it is a strip down job, Not recommended, unless you know what you are doing.

If there is no rear access panel, then it is normally a cabinet off job, but it can be done from the top,
Lean the m/c towards you and with a bit of manipulation, you can actually fit the belt this way, it is awkward, but can be done.

Funny enough check the fuse again you could have installed a duff

make sure it's 13amp or on the fuse it will say 13A

DO that untill lights come on on the front or something.

this is a faily easy task essential to lubricate the seal with washing-up fluid in the slot which goes on the tub. enter the lip of the tub into the slot on the seal and work round in both directions forcing seal on with thumbs. the spring goes into a groove so as to keep it in position on the tub. then similiarly, put the seal on the cabinet and follow up with the plastic ring
