I bought 2 new bath towels and 2 hand towels yesterday and threw them in to wash. The machine will wash but won't drain.It gets to the drain cycle and starts beeping, I tried resetting it and that didn't work. I blew thru the drain hose and air is coming into the washer. There is tons of lint in the water so I have bailed out all the water and now what?

You will need to take the machine outside, remove the drain pump. When you do that about 2 litres of water will come out even if the bowl looks empty. Once pump is out, search around inside the hole where the pump goes and remove any remaining lint. Put pump back, set up machine & check for water leaks around the pump.
