Before visiting I had been told that during the previous week it had:
On one occasion gushed water (from the door?)
Displayed flashing lights one and five on completion of cycle
Displayed flashing lights three and five on completion of cycle
On visiting I discovered a dirty door seal and use of a detergent that seemed to be over-sudding. Whilst I was there I observed it filling, detergent dispenser working, heating and draining and leaking a tiny bit.
Email from customer today – apparently it no longer leaks but lights three and five flash on completion of a cycle, and customer is resetting by switching off for a while (I will of course advise re the reset button). No mention of whether plates seem to be clean or not. I can confirm that this particular machine does have a row of five lights and it is the Chinese model.
Any ideas folks?
