Beko Washing Machine: not pumping water

Professional Repair Guide

What is this symptom?

Is your Beko washing machine not pumping water? If it completes wash and spin cycles but water remains in the drum, you may have a clogged drain pump filter, a blocked drain hose, or a faulty drain pump. Understanding these common issues can help you address the problem effectively.

Possible Causes

Clogged drain pump filter

How to Identify: Water remains in drum; visible debris in filter when accessed; often resolves after cleaning filter.

Blocked or kinked drain hose

How to Identify: Hose is bent, twisted, or contains debris; water not flowing out when hose checked; straightening/clearing hose improves drain.
