Ariston A1637 (LB2000TRF) Error Flash – What does it mean?

[wmcnicol]

Hi,

My Ariston washing machine is refusing to work.

Error flashes as follows:

Door Lock Led: Fast flash
Rapid Wash Led: Flash.

I have been unable to find a service manual describing the fault flashes. 🙁

When started, will open water inlet for a few seconds – then close it. Then usually just pumps out. Pump continues to run after whatever water is present has been pumped out.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

William.

Motor problems. Check wiring for continuity and breakages. Check continuity through motor. Being an Indesit-based machine the problem is probably the pcb.

Be warned – this machine uses a high speed three phase induction motor. As a consequence, the capacitors on the pcb may store a charge of up to 500v for a period of ten minutes after programme completion.

Pulling the plug is not enough – you have to wait.
