Flooded Kitchen From Small Black Pipe At Front Near Pump Filter
Hi, my 2 year old beko has just been reinstated in our kitchen after a year in storage. Everything seemed to be working well until I noticed my kitchen was in inch deep in water. Eventually found it to be pouring from a 1cm thick, black hose near front of machine, underneath. Is this the emergency drainage pipe? It's sticking out with nothing on the end of it (should it be capped?) and it seems to be the o ly place the machine will drain from. Should it be attached underneath, maybe pulled out in transit? Or is there a switch to stop it coming out of this pipe. All seems to be plumbed in properly, otherwise! Please, any help would be amazing, I need to do some washing without having to fill 50 bowls of water from the hose!!!!! Cheers

Beko washing machine flooding from small black hose by pump filter
- The problem
- After being put back into use following a year in storage, a 2-year-old Beko washing machine drained water onto the kitchen floor from a thin black hose at the front underneath, near the pump filter. The user believed this was the only place the machine would drain from.
- Likely cause
- The strongest diagnosis in the discussion is that the hose is the emergency drain pipe and its end cap/bung is missing, or the hose is not parked correctly onto its holder near the pump filter.
- What fixed it
- Check whether the thin hose should be pushed onto a small plastic parking spigot near the pump filter behind the filter flap. If not, fit the missing bung/cap to the end of the emergency drain hose. A replacement cap/bung was suggested to be sourced using the machine model number. The exact repair carried out was not confirmed.
- Checks to try
- Leak traced to a very thin black hose next to the pump filter
- Check whether the hose should plug onto a small plastic holder/spigot near the pump filter
- Check whether the emergency drain hose is missing its bung/cap
- Parts or tools mentioned
- Replacement bung/cap for the emergency drain hose

If the pipe is very thin and right next to the pump filter it sounds like an emergency drain pipe for draining the washing machine if the washer gets stuck full of water. It should have a bung in the end. It needs capping. Try to find a small plastic bung or cap that could have fitted inside it. Before doing that though - make sure the hose shouldn't actually fit onto a small plastic bit sticking out near the pump filter (behind the filter panel) that the end of the hose should just plug onto when not in use.
