INDESIT IDL 530 – Flashing lights

[pinkshoes]

My dishwasher has decided to have celebrate christmas earlier by flashing its lights.

The wash light and the drying light are flashing.

I have looking through the manual but there is no reference to this sequence of flashing lights in the troubleshooting section.

Does anyone know what the fault might be ?

and if it can be resolved without calling an engineer

from the left the 2nd light and the 4th light

As it happened just as i was leaving the house this morning, i just switched
it off.

i will switch it on again when i return home later this evening, and see
what happens

Lights 2 + 4 suggest possible heater failure. could be the heater itself, very prone to failure, could also be the control PCB, wiring breaks etc.

Unless you have access to the correct electrical test equipment and the knowledge to use it then it is time to call for help.

Try the link below to see if we have someone who can help. Be sure to remove the mains plug if you intend to investigate further.

Jim
many thanks for your suggestions.

I switched it on once i got home, No flashing lights, and it started its cycle at the beginning and completed the cycle without any problems.

It must have just been having an off day.

I will bear your suggestions in mind in case it happens again,

thanks
