    Hi I have an ariston margherita a1635, the knob turns during which the led flashes 3 times then stops, then three times then stops etc etc, can anyone tell me what this error code relates to?
    Thanks in advance Rob

    Temperatre control problem, possible poor connections or a sensor failure.

    Power of please if checking yourself :zap:

    It shouldn’t be an overly costly repair either so if you need an engineer, check the repairs@ link below 🙂

    My Ariston has started doing this (except when there is no load in the drum)

    I have had the probe out and it measures ~22k at room temperature.
    Checked wiring and everything seems to be on properly.

    What should I try next?

    A new washing machine. 😉

    Sadly if all connections are OK and the NTC checks out then there is a strong chance the main PCB is faulty, Indesit electronics are notoriously flaky at the best of times.

    You may be able to get the board tested/repaired at places such as EMW but a new one with the required smart card and card reader is just not owrth it.

    Assuming PCB, is there a componant of choice that likes to go bad?
    Are there any board schematics I can use for fault finding?

    Being somewhat electronically minded, and somewhat skint, I’m keen to explore the option of repair.

    No board level information of any kind available.

    That is, unfortunate 😥

    Machine repaired! 😀

    Long story short, I did some (extensive) testing and determined that the PCB basically worked. It turned out to be the wire that goes in to the connector on the temperature probe had broken inside the connector.

    Remedial action taken!
