f05 – pressure switch jammed on full

pumps probably blocked, as always, with plug out, check filter/pump ( its at the bottom , at the front, under the kickplate!)

Re: indesit 5 flashes

F05 suggests the pressure switch is jammed on full. Several possible causes, faulty pressure switch, blocked pump or filter, blocked pressure hose, faulty connections to PCB or indeed PCB fault itself. Please remove the mains plug before you put your hands inside.
