Starts any programme wash, rinse spin or drain only, perfectly then after about 20 seconds cuts out totally, all dead and no display. It then comes on again and keeps repeating ON for 6 seconds OFF for 3 seconds endlessly until you cancel it?
I have ordered a facia module but just wondered if anyone else had come across this fault?
I don’t have access to diagnostics but it doesn’t stay on long enough top run them anyway.

got all the makings of a main board power supply fault
cant get a picture of the main board so cant see what type of power supply it has
if it was me i would remove main board and check power supply output as machine starts. you should get either 5V or 12V supply to the facia board which may be easier as a first check

assume you have checked for heater earth faults? Disconnect it and run it anyway.

Machine is only 14 months old, didn’t drag it out because it is wedged behind the skirting board at one side and will need a kitchen unit side panel and fridge moving first. 🙁

All and any suggestions gladly received, you can teach an old dog new tricks, I know that for certain with the dog we adopted from our next door neighbour. 😀

only say it because I know of an old dog caught out by tiny earth leakages upsetting electronics.December 13, 2014 at 6:48 pm #422653iadom

The fact that it pulses on and off in exact 6/3 second pulses points to something other than an earth to me though.
