    Hi
    I have a French Ariston AVL 120 – this seems to have many guises (looks like AVL 109 and others) but I cant seem to find the UK equivalent or underlying Indesit/Hotpoint machine.

    Anyway it sometimes stops just before the spin section, – rapid flashing key light and the bottom 2 of the 4 buttons left of the key button are flashing. The 4 buttons are Timer, Super wash, easy iron, quick wash (excuse rusty French!) – last 2 are flashing. I searched on here but the info I found refers only to 5 buttons.

    Thanks for your help!

    There is only one model of this Indesit junk sold in the UK as far as I can see.

    Error codes are shown by flashing a combination of the bottom, left hand indicator light and the four right hand column of buttons/lights.

    Possibly F03..
    NTC short/open circuit: check thermistor & module
    connections.

    Thanks, the bottom 2 of the right hand column are flashing making 24 – but the list here http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/help/fix- … codes.html only goes to 16 ?

    Those are totally different machines and error codes, you do have F03.

    Great, thanks, I will check it out – though if it was the thermistor I would expect to see the abort happen on the fill/heat cycle rather than the empty before spin ?

    Oh and re the piece of junk,
    a) it was bought before I discovered this forum
    b) I did just buy a SEBO vacuum since I discovered this forum (and yes it is a seriously quality piece of kit!)

    The error codes are only a rough guide, with the electronics on these anything is possible. :rolls:
