The platform in short
The models in the table are what this profile speaks for. These model numbers form a single run, and a fault found on one of them is worth checking on any of the others.
What goes wrong on the CLV line
- Noisy running or spinning — Most of it is the machine walking or an uneven load, not a failing part. Read Abnormal Noise or Vibration for this family; it carries the checks this page deliberately does not.
- Not draining — A machine that cannot drain will usually not complete the next cycle. Where this goes next: the Will Not Drain page for these models, linked under Related.
- It refuses to begin — Split it first: the two cases share nothing. Read Will Not Start or No Power for this family; it carries the checks this page deliberately does not.
- Leaking from the machine — Where the water appears — front, back or underneath — names the cause. For the diagnosis itself, follow the Water Leak page for the CLV line, linked below.
- An error code mid-cycle — A cycle that stops at the same step every time names the step, and that observation is the most useful thing you can record. Cycle Will Not Run or Complete has its own page for these models — the step order lives there, not here.
The problem classes in order
- Unusual sounds — First on this platform. It is the class owners tolerate longest, which makes it under-reported rather than its real one. This family carries no measured component share, so the order below is argued from how the platform is built and what it costs an owner — not counted.
- Drainage failure — Behind that one, and close to it. The pump filter and the drain hose sit behind most of it, and both are owner-accessible.
- Start faults — Behind those two. A dead panel on a proved-live outlet is the serious case.
- Leaking onto the floor — Fourth. It is the only class here that costs more than the repair, so urgency outranks frequency.
- Programmes that stop or hang — Last. It is the class that most often turns out to be another fault wearing a different face.

Ranked, not counted — no component share is recorded for this family
Documented| Problem class | Relative rank on this family | What the rank rests on |
|---|---|---|
| Noise and vibration | highest | how often it is reported, and how cheaply it resolves |
| Drainage failure | second | it stops the machine being usable at once |
| Will not start | third | how much of it is not a fault at all |
| Leaks | fourth | damage outside the cabinet, not frequency |
| Cycle faults | lowest | usually another fault reported as this one |
What an owner can fix on these models
Those checks resolve a real share of all five classes above. The line is the panel and the drum: bearings, the motor, the control board and the interlock switch all sit past it. Call the same day for a leak, and close the taps meanwhile: the water outruns the repair.
