WF225A (Hotper.) stops and flashes.

[leavemetogetonwithit]

WF225A 31106503 (DC?) 15 months old.
Fills, turns a couple of times, then “miniload” and “rinsehold” flash at abt. 1Hz continuously and on/off led flashes continuously at abt. 5Hz and machine drains never-endingly.

Does Iadom’s post in error codes p.3 refer to this model?
Anyway I checked all the usual suspects especially htr/ntc and p.sw. (latter advised to customer by “theservicecentre” by e-mail 😕 ). Ntc read 40kohm at garage temperature (modern, not damp).
Thought syphoning because d/hose was right down in but shortening it made no difference.
Pulled out fascia board and pwr module (Magnetec 215007819.01)
but found no visible signs.
Any clues, please?
Mike.

Re: WF225A (Hotper.) stops and flashes.

sounds like a pressure switch problem, check connections on board if pressure switch and hose are ok

Thanks for the tip, wornbrushes.
I actually opened up the p.sw. and checked it fully. Did not think to check its hose or connection to board. Will try that when I return there next Weds. Guess I’ll have to get used to looking more closely at these connector blocks. Maybe get some more powerful reading glasses 🙁 .

Due to the young age of these machines I don’t have a great deal of tech info on them yet . Completely different controls to WMA range with that awful Indesit module in the base.

Re: WF225A (Hotper.) stops and flashes.

Checked all boards(visual only),connections, p.sw. tube. Found nothing. Re-assembled. Fault still same.
Referred (kind and understanding)customer to Hotperloni and 5 yr parts g’tee. and walked away, shrugging shoulders. 🙁
Have strong feeling it must be some kind of test mode or something. 😕
