Hoover Dynamic Next - Filter filling

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Hoover Dynamic Next DXC4C47B1 filter area retaining water

The problem

The owner reported odd smells from a Hoover Dynamic Next 7kg washing machine, model DXC4C47B1, and found stagnant water in the bottom-left filter housing. After emptying it and running another wash, the filter housing filled with water again. The waste pipe was checked and reported to be draining properly.

Likely cause

The accepted reply states that some water remaining in the filter/pump area is normal because the pump cannot expel the final small amount. If there is significantly more than about a mugful, a partial blockage affecting pump-out was suggested as a possible cause.

What fixed it

No repair was confirmed. The accepted advice was that the filter housing will normally contain some water after use, so this alone does not indicate a fault. If the amount is more than a mugful, the most likely supported diagnosis is partial restriction in the drain path or pump-out system, but the exact blockage point was not confirmed.

Checks to try

• Filter housing found full of stagnant water
• Filter housing was emptied and refilled after the next wash
• Waste pipe was removed and reported to empty properly
