washing machine trips out the rcd as soon as its turned on

[markfox2205]

I have a hotpoint Aquarius washing machine. As soon as its plugged in and switched on it trips the rcd. I've tried at another socket toake sire its nor a fault on the socket, but its definitely the machine. Could anybody give me any pointers as what to look for. Thanks

Sorry chap - best advice you're likely to get is find an appliance repair engineer and have them take a look, or cut your losses and buy a new machine.

Machinery, water and electricity are not the best of bed fellows.
