Indesit washing machine won't drain!

More help/advice required please!
In my property I rent I have an intergrated Indesit washing machine which has stopped draining!
I can get the cycle working and once it gets time to drain the machine stops and the dial clicks round the different settings.
Any suggestions? Do I need to hire a plumber? DIY job? or a whole new machine??

check the filter that could need cleaning, there should be access to it near the bottom on the front - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mmvr4Xn2W1wI am responsible me, myself and I alone I am not the keeper others thoughts and words.0

I would second the filter- it just needs cleaning. Op- get into the habit of doing it once a year, although there probably wont be much gunk in there.
Have lots of old towels and a bowl/bucket at the ready! It is a simple job and will be done in minutes easily.0 -

Yes check filter - But Is it the landlords machine?
So long as you have not damaged it and have used/ maintained it correctly( clean drain filter ) then it will usually fall on ll to repairAny posts on here are for information and discussion purposes only and shouldn't be seen as (financial) advice.0 -
