ParticipantHi
I have a Hoover VisionHD 8142
No matter what program I select the machine does the same thing, it fills with water and then tries to go into a high spin speed and stops after a about 3-4 seconds, it then pauses for a long time and tries to spin again and stops after 3-4 seconds. After another long pause the 1200 spin light and Timer Saver lights are flashing, they both flash together 8 times before pausing and then flashing 8 times again and so on.The machine is about 2 years old and this is it’s first fault.
I read on another forum this indicates the heater element is faulty but I’ve tested that and it’s not open circuit.
I’m quite a competent electronics engineer and have the gear to test components etc
I’ve searched for errors for this model and so far drawn a blank.
Can anyone shed any light on this please.

I have a similar fault on a HNL 6146 model. I’m guessing it is the main PCB but will wait for replies regarding this from others before I send for a new one.

Participantcheck the tacho/ tacho wires on the motor
failing that it will be a pcb problem

ParticipantRe: Hoover VisionHD 8142 no programs working
Just checked the Tacho and it had unscrewed itself. Once screwed back in everything is working as it should.
I found a list of fault codes here: http://www.whitegoodshelp.co.uk/wordpre … -flashing/November 15, 2009 at 1:50 pm #303754Jayelee

Thanks Helo_75
You were exactly right, I took the bottom off the washer and instantly found the tacho rotor and could clearly see the sensor hanging from it’s wires.
Nice one saved me wasting 70 quid on a controller 🙂
This forum is brilliant.

I had the same problem with my washing machine and solved it by following these instructions.
