Hotpoint WD420

[mjhservices]

Found machine had over filled with water and had locked up with the on/off light and the time saver lights flashing and the reset button not responding (hold start/cancel button 3 secs)
Cleared a huge blockage in filter/sump but can not cancel these 2 lights flashing with the pump & blower motor running all the time.
Is the pressure switch a single level switch?
Regards Mark

hi, i think the light you say is flashing is the 4th from top? if it is then the fault is telling you the motor control triac on the main control board has failed!, most likely if it seriously overfilled then some of the water would have leaked from the dryer vent down onto the main board & ‘blown it’,
