    Thank you submarine :)

    My washing machine is going to error of SUB. I googled and gonna try clean it out tonight. I might need to get someone out though :(! Or need a new machine. Will try everything before I gotta do that though! One thing after another in my house :/! It was making a weird crutchy (if thats even a word!) noise so may need cleaned out, will have to look that up. Will do a "wash" without any detergent in it see if that helps. Any tips much appreciated :)

    The noise might be something stuck in the pump, it's usually 5p coins that get stuck in mine!
