Indesit WiDL126s is not draining

[bis5]

Hello
My Indesit WiDL126s is not draining
I have fitted a new pump and checked all the pipes are clear but it still will not drain.
The only thing I can think of is the powers not getting to the pump could anyone help ?

Regards Brian

unusual, and to be honest youd normally get a fault code if the pcb fails to energise the pump!!!

do you hear anything when you turn it to spin/drain?

Hi
no I`ve tested it with the pump out to see if it is working but it`s not I put a electric screwdriver to the + and it`s only lighting the bulb very dim as though the powers weak ?

ooh, live testing, shouldnt really be doing it

could be the pcb, but youll need an eprom too

but… could also be pressure switch, so its your call, id think the pcb would be most likely

Thanks
