why does my hotpoint washing machine WF630 tripp the electrics?

Within the first 10mins of each cycle the electrics will be tripped upto 4 times. It does eventually continue to the end of the cycle but it is obviously telling me something is wrong but i have no idea what. There is no water behind the machine and all electical leads and pipes look in good order. Machine only 3yrs old.

Your electrics may look in good order to the naked eye, but if it's tripping the circut board then there is definately a short circut, either in the machine itself or in the wall socket

I would seriously consider having an electrician look at this problem because if you don't you could wake up one night with your house on fire.

Your circut board is sending you a warning that something is very wrong, so HEED THE MESSAGE.

Don't ignore electrical faults.
