Ive done a search on here and it appears the display has come up and been talked about but it seems no one knows the reason. The machine washes perfect but i was just wondering if anyone got to the bottom of this strange readout
Many thanks in advance
Chris
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
You’re right, it’s come up a few times – we never did get an explanation! However, it doesn’t appear to have any effect on machine function, so I suspect it was never pursued that vigorously.

think ill have a chat with the makers see what they say and post the comments
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
Does the display actually show anything other than ‘-c0n’?
If not, it may be worth checking the connections to the display?
Power off if you decide to look into it.
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
Ive only just had time to look into this but apprently its saying -con due the the fact that the machine has detected condensation in or on the electrics and not as many people think -con refering to something to do with the conditioner.
So the question is now how does this machine monitor for condensation??
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
CON stands for conductivitry sensor, some machines have one and some dont, there is a cure and it is pretty simple realy.
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
care to shed some light on where it is and what the cure is please buddy?
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
It appears to be a device situated just above the pump on certain machines only. 😕
My guess is that a simple fix would be to isolate it, then it will give a ‘normal’ 😉 conductivity reading.
But then I could be completely wrong. 😳Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
hi, the con display you are seeing on your machine is not an error code, it is the word END in a foreign lanquage and nothing to worry about.I Know this because i had a Ariston engineer come to look at mine for this excact reason. Ths is the reason why it only appears at the end of a program. My machine has done this since having it and I have had no problems with it.
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
That explanation seems to be at odds with what johnnyj said earlier in this thread, and he is an Indesit/Hotpoint/Ariston engineer. Some of these machines do have a conductivity sensor.
Which language uses ‘con’ for end?
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
-con = end, thats the best line ive heard in ages, ill have to use that one this week, also F08 = quick wash i think
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
No sorry i have heard several reasons for it, one was static in the machine, the other water pressure and the third and most hones “i dont have a clue” and replaced the conductivity sensor and control board, (problem now fixed)
Re: Ariston AIB16 with -con on display?
Con, could be Italian for the END of well respected brands that are actually Indesit/Candy/Antonio Merloni underneath. Now that is a con. 😥
