The manual does not provide specific instructions for fixing a leaking pump on the Defy 850 washing machine. However, general steps to address a leaking pump include:
1. Unplug the Machine – Ensure the washing machine is disconnected from power. 2. Check the Drain Hose – Inspect for cracks or loose connections. 3. Inspect the Pump – Look for visible damage or leaks. 4. Tighten Connections – Ensure all hose clamps and fittings are secure. 5. Replace the Pump – If the pump is damaged, consider replacing it.
If the leak persists, contacting a qualified technician is recommended.
