Hotpoint washing machine F05

[Steveefc123]

Hi my hotpoint washing machine is showing fault code F05. I have checked and cleaned the filter and also the waste hose where i found a button and a coin. I thought this would have done the trick but the next wash is still displaying the F05 fault. Any suggestions in terms of how to test the pump?
Cheers

If you haven't checked it already, there's sometimes a flap in the front with a little basket inside that catches larger things like coins. It can get clogged with fluff. Also worth checking the bottom of the machine, there's a float switch and drip tray that is designed to prevent flooding from faulty seals. Sometimes a small leak can build up and trip the float switch.
