Repair guidance / Candy / BR3
A knock develops as the speed rises
A noise during acceleration has a different pattern from a steady noise throughout the wash. Say whether the cabinet moves, the drum sounds rough or the sound occurs only with particular loads. Stop use if the machine moves violently; internal inspection belongs to the engineer.
A different pattern: water stays in the drum
A wash that stops with water visible needs a drainage description before a spin complaint. Note whether the machine tried to empty, whether a warning appeared and whether the door stayed locked. Do not force the door or loosen a filter while the machine contains water.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “a knock develops as the speed rises”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “a knock develops as the speed rises”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “water stays in the drum”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Beckenham postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “water stays in the drum” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
