Repair guidance / Siemens / BR2
The programme stops at filling
Describe whether water enters at all or enters briefly before the machine stops. Mention recent plumbing work or a moved appliance. A water-supply observation is useful, but it does not identify an inlet valve or control-board failure by itself.
A different pattern: the door will not release
Tell us whether the cycle has finished, the display is still active and water remains visible. Those details distinguish an interrupted programme from a door-release complaint. Do not prise the handle or attempt to defeat the interlock.
A repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs
Include the floor level, entry arrangements and any stairs between the entrance and the equipment. These are practical booking details, not a reason to move the appliance yourself or promise that a repair can be completed on arrival.

Preparing the Keston visit
Keep the Keston address and complete postcode together with the equipment details. Mention whether this enquiry concerns a fitted appliance, an existing pump or a unit below the kitchen sink so the intended work is clear before booking.
Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “the programme stops at filling”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “the programme stops at filling”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the door will not release”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Keston postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the door will not release” 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 repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
