I run a maintenance easy today and ever since I’ve had the spin cycle light flashing continuously.
The door does not lock and no cycle will start. The door interlock is fine, if I manually make contact in the interlock then the machine drains and blows got air into the drum.
Maintenance wash consisted of 90degree cycle with some bleach and bicarb in the drum
Anyone able to help?
Re: Indesit widl 126 flashing spin cycle light
sorry i meant, door lock is on constantly before i try and start a cycle, and when the spin light starts flashing the door lock lihgt is flashing really fast
Re: Indesit widl 126 flashing spin cycle light
Ignoring the doorlock light it is best to give lights by number from left to right. If the 4th light along the top row is flashing then that is F01, motor triac short circuit. Can be loose connections or worn motor brushes but can also be motor or main circuit board.
Re: Indesit widl 126 flashing spin cycle light
I I have replaced the brushes just recently so don’t think it will be them. Will check all connections today.
Any way for me to check the motor?
And when you say main circuit board do you mean the one behind the front panel?
Re: Indesit widl 126 flashing spin cycle light
The motor can be checked using a suitable multimeter or megger. Check the condition of the ends of the brushes you fitted. They should be nice and shiny, if they are rough end pitted then the motor is shot.
The pcb that is far more likely to cause this fault is the main pcb in the base.

I’ve ordered a new control board so we’ll see how it works after I got it
