Simpson SWT1023A Questions & Answers
VerifiedMPN: SWT1023A
Our SWT1023A machine is showing an E40 (Lid lock F) error when there are 17mins left on a cycle (any cycle it appears). I press the Start button twice, but it doesn't clear the problem for more than two seconds. The only way to solve the problem is to press Stop and change the cycle to Rinse and Spin (now 44 mins long). Again the machine stops at 17 mins, but begins again when Start is pressed twice. Any ideas? Thanks, Kate

What happens to the lint on this model, my mother just bought one from Winnings
There is no lint filter on this model, so it'll either go down the drain, or remain on your clothes. From my experience it hasn't been a big problem, aside from a couple of ridiculously lint shedding garments.
swiftau Thanks for your information, kind regards Chris
Seeing as it doesn't have a lint filter, does this machine put lint on clothes?
I have this washing machine and always put it on auto water. But the water does not even cover to the top of the clothes it just seems to wet them all really. Is this right?
I find it usually comes close to covering the clothes, but not quite. Make sure you're checking about 15 minutes into the cycle, once the water level has been fully established, and check again another 5 or 10 minutes later to make sure the clothes are actually moving around sufficiently (i.e. those on the top and barely in the water don't stay there, but actually get moved around enough to be fully submerged). On several occasions I've thought the water level too low, but after checking a few times during the wash cycle was surprised how well the clothes were being moved around. It is however, rather annoying that the machine pauses as soon as you open the lid, so you can't actually see what it's doing.
