Washing machine over filling?

My Indesit Evolution WE16 is over filling with water. I've checked the pressure switch which switches and makes circuit when I blow down the pipe. I've also blown down the hose from the pressure sensor end to confirm there is no blockage in the pressure chamber. Can anyone help with any other suggestions? Thanks.

Fixed ! It was the hose.

Could be a valve problem - dirt in the valve will prevent it seating properly. Could still be a prob. with pressure switch- might check out ok with a multimeter but still fails under mains power. Also pin hole in switch diaphragm will cause overfill probs. Check out www.2ndwave.co.uk/manual.html

Found a hole in the pressure pipe. Presume this is the problem. Will change it and see !
