Hi all I’m hoping someone can help me I’ve read through all the forums and tried many of the suggested things to fix this machine and I’m still stuck.
Few days ago my machine stopped working at the beginning of the cycle,all top lights where flashing and the drain and rinse buttons lit but silent no noise coming from.the machine, the machine was full of water so switched it off and removed front panel to check the bottom filter thing it was empty.
We have now emptied the drain pump there was a sock stuck in it ive removed this. Tried the machine it takes a while to come on and then the lights are still doing the same as above wont change to any othet setting and cant switch off from the front off button.
My husband has checked all internal elements that has been suggested here and theres no swelling, burnt bits and the bearings havent gone. Am i missing something? I assumed it would have been the sock but the machine wont do anything even after being off for more then 48 hours(thought this may reset the lights etc)
Any suggestions or help much appreciated.

looking at the right hand vertical lights from BOTTOM to TOP and using only the bottom five lights, which lights are on steady by number counting upwards.
When you removed the sock did you check that the pump impellor would rotate?

Hi there thanks for the reply. Upon removing the sock the impellor was rotating fine the numbers on a steady light going up is 2 and 3

Error code F05, that is a non drain/pump fault.
There may be something else in the sump hose, does the water flood out when you remove the pump filter?
Have you checked the drain outlet hose for blockages.Sometimes if you tip the machine back too far when draining a blocked pump it can upset the pressure switch. This can sometimes be reset or may even need the module reprogramming.
Re: Indesit IWC6105 Help please
You can’t reprogramme it, you need an Indesit Company laptop to do that. Reset involves draining out all the water, removing and refitting pressure hose to pressure switch then filling with a couple of litres of water through door before setting to drain. That sadly doesn’t always work.
Likeliest possibility is something else stuck or a blockage in the outlet hose.
