Hi my Creda 1000 washing machine does not drain, I do not have the manual, so don't know what to do. Does anyone have any advice please? I am thinking that the filter might need cleaning out but don't know where to find it.

Some 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, remove the hose, take out filter and clean.
Check out my site for info: www.2ndwave.co.uk/manual.html

most washing machines have a small door under the front loading door .behind it there is usually a large screw trap which is the filter.if the machine has not emptied completely there will be water escape when you unscrew this.a turkey tray is a good collector for water.if there is no door or flap it may be underneath.took a look at mine and it is a bendix.have seen them on other models.hope this helps..
