Re: Yep, another Ariston AWD12 SUK – 13 flashes
ok step by step… (i love DIY)
i REALLY really dont wanna be paying £90 for ariston to come and fix this thing as i simply dont have the spare £££ (baby (8 months), wife (just lost her job!), house (only another 22 years to go…))
Lets get cracking… I have a 240v multimeter in me left hand and a screwdriver in my right!
Where do i start? The Thermistor? where should it be? how should i check it? I know you wont give precise instructions for legal reasons but…
Re: Yep, another Ariston AWD12 SUK – 13 flashes
user replacable???
do you sell this part on this site? if not, can you source?
or… has the part not actually gone wrong and i need to turn up the hot water temperature on me boiler!?
Re: Yep, another Ariston AWD12 SUK – 13 flashes
It flashes 3 times, then pauses for about 5 secs and repeats 3 flashes!!! WOW anyone would think you been on the ariston training course…
So, any ideas what 3 flashes means? please dont tell me its something silly like i forgot to plug the hose back on properly!!!
Re: Yep, another Ariston AWD12 SUK – 13 flashes
Just incase im getting things wrong here, how do i get the exact code from the amount of flashes? do i start counting from as soon as i press the button on?
I had also better clarify exactly what the machine is doing…
Its an Ariston Margerita AWD 12 S (not awd 125 as some people write, unless thats another model)
If i choose the cycle no.8 for example, i turn the knob to 8, i have no other buttons pushed in. I then check the water valves are on under the sink (both hot and cold). the dryer is set to off and the temp is 30. I turn the machine on and it starts flashing slowly 13 times. it then starts to pump water out AND at the same time pumps water into the tray and into the machine. this will last about 5 mins. about 3 secs after it starts to pump in and out, the LED flashes again for 3 times…
is that what i should be counting as the error code? or the 13 at th beginning?
thanks for your speedy answers again!

Re: Yep, another Ariston AWD12 SUK – 13 flashes
Did you get this fixed in the end by the engineer? I also have the dreaded F13 error!!!! whats VERY VERY spooky is that it almost exactly 3 years since the machine was made (date taken from top of round knob on the inside)
I have taken the kick panel off mine and found a black plastic screw bung/plug. there was nothing at all on the inside except water. no screws/money (i wish) or tissue etc. I have checked the water inlet pipes and water outlet pipe and all seams to be clear and crack free.
You said that F13 could mean the “dryer temperature control” is caput, but is there a way to test this item myself? also is it easy for me to replace? can you source one?!
Thanks for your help in advance
Phil
