Hotpoint pump replacement

That's what I thought, thanks for the update. This is the problem with error codes, they just take over and hide the actual symptoms. What you need to ask yourself is, is the water being pumped out or not? Is the washer left full of water or with the water pumped away. If it's the latter then it doesn't matter what the error code says it can't be a pump fault. A pump fault just stops water being drained away. If water is being pumped out but the washing machine thinks it isn't, then that can cause the error, that can be caused by blockages in the pressure system.

Thanks for the reply, since my post I have come to the conclusion that the pump might not be the problem. The new pump measured the same resistance, 266 ohms. Base on that fact I think the issue lies elsewhere, maybe the control mechanism that tells the machine to drain is screwed up. I checked all drainage channels are not blocked, so must ne motor or controller, as an ill educated guess.
