Earth leakage fault rectified by tilting the machine back 45 degrees!

Very strange this one.

- No leaks.
- Motor all checks out.
- Heating element checks out (although I notice there are wear marks from the drum rubbing it. They are superficial marks for now.)

Works ok with no load in it. But with a load will randomly trip the ELCB.

Once it trips, as soon as the machine is turned on anywhere in the cycle it instantly trips the ELCB. But if you tilt the machine right back 45 degrees, it 'resets' it, and will work again.

Drum is 'clanking' loudly on fast spin cycle too.

Anyone any ideas what is going on? Any insights much appreciated. Thanks.
