First you will need to get rid of the EXCESS water ,(drain hose lowered down into a bowl) will need to check and clean out ALL the hoses from the bottom of the drum, to the drain standpipe to be SURE you have proved they are CLEAR.socks hairgrips bobbles etc . The machine FILTER could be blocked with these some are hidden,by cleaning out all pipes you WILL locate the filter ,check the drain pump is clear and working a replacement maybe needed
