thank you for your reply,the machine does buzz when it is on or when trying to choose a programme.the water supply is always on because the ball valve is siezed open,its been that way since we moved here.i did try the machine whilst it was pulled out of its position,but it just makes the buzzing sound that i find hard to pinpoint.we are using a spare machine for now,but its quite old,so anxious to repair the zanussi
