Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
That’s an odd one. I don’t think that actually is a fault code, they would normally be F01, F02 etc etc.
Is the machine actually doing anything ?

Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
we noticed the msg at the end of a cycle, the door could be opened and when we selected a new cycle it brought up the usual programme time and options
it happened once more and the same end result
i’ll just kee an eye on it i suppose

Probably wise 😉
Unless -con has something to do with the fabric softener (-con being conditioner )
It would be interesting to know the outcome if any, if you resolve it or find out, maybe you would post back.

Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
dave,
funnily enough my wife suggested con might have ref to the conditioner and i was like na, must be something more technical than that!
we’ll let it ride and i’ll post backlater with what happens
many thanks for the prompt, useful advice, much appreciated,
great site!

Minty,
Another thought is it may indicate that the spin load was unbalanced (i.e. a small but heavy uneven load) indicating a programme‘con’trol time out maybe 💡
Check your User Instruction Leaflet as it may make reference to unbalanced loads 🙄
Sadly for some strange reason Indesit (Merloni) are not very helpful to us in this country when it comes to technical feed-back. We would not have to ‘guess then 😳

Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
martin,
thanks for the input, i think this did occur on the spin cycle so you could well be right, i’ll keep an eye on it and report back with what i find
thanks once again
tony
Anyone finds the answer this please let us know… have a new system that started to display this after 2 weeks, it now does it all the way thru the cycle…. Indesit UK are baffled….
Works properly but of course you can’t see how much time is left for a wash!!

Martin, I assume Merloni (Indesit) have sent an engineer out to investigate as it’s only two weeks old ?
I would have thought it has to be a pcb error, has the engineer tried one do you know ?
Dave.
actually no… haven’t quite got around to a call yet,.. the unit works flawlessly….. however Ihavae managed to fix the issue…
1 – took out the soap tray and cleaned all residue from tray and recess
2 – removed the 20pence from the pump filternone of this worked so I performed the Micorsoft fix and powered off for 30 seconds and back on again…
error gone and normal operations have resumed.. can only assume the CPU got messed up and needed the power off to reset….
Indesit via phone were useless and after 4 calls no one had heard of the error let alone a fix!!…
seemed silly to get an engineer out when the thing seemed out!!
Wife is happy now… so I am happy now…

Martin,
Many thanks for taking the time to share your problems with this errant washing machine. We at UKW do learn a great deal from ‘customer feed back’ which is much appreciated. Thanks 🙂
I can only conclude at this point that “con” is indeed associated with a ‘controlled programme time out’…i.e. Something caught in the pump caused the vague ‘Error warning’…Most interesting 😉
Sadly (and what seems abundantly clear in this case) Indesit (aka Merloni) do not give us in the trade any technical information whatsoever. We (the heartbeat of the trade) need this information in order to correctly diagnose errant faults in electronic/computer controlled machines such as yours. One day we will get through to the likes of Merloni that sharing information with us can solve many problems and improve trade relations.
It is interesting to observe that in your case however, even their engineer hadn’t a clue (sorry…was baffled!) which isn’t too alarming for us anyway. Nevertherless we will continue to try and help you (the general public) out with our knowledge all very much willingly AND FOR FREE 😉
Martin
Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
😀 Just a Quick note to say thank you to everyone for the postings. I’ve found them extremely useful and they have been a great help.
Thank you all – you’ve saved me a LOT of money!!

Re: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
they do know about this prob some machines check water cleanliness on rinse check pump filter is clean
but also had some were eprom on display is faulty
you want get much tech help from merloni now and call centre will not know about it as they are just call takers now
ive seen it twice you quite right that it will wash okRe: indesit evolution we16 error code: ‘ – con’
That’s an odd one. I don’t think that actually is a fault code, they would normally be F01, F02 etc etc.
What do these F codes mean. I keep getting this F01. It goes on for a while and then stops. Mine is a Evolution WE16. Great machine!
Yes! the service people are rubbish. Wouldn’t touch them with a 20′ barge pole.

F01 indicates a component failure on the computer board relating to the motor speed control circuit.
The fault codes almost never exactly identify the fault, but act as a pointer for the engineer.
Check in Directories, or put your postcode up here and one of the UKW members will pick up on it.
