    Re: Ariston A1635

    washing machine is now fixed. it was the pressure sensor at the top of the aforementioned hose. Apparently, this machine will flash its power button to give a ballpark reason as to the fault. Ariston service men like to keep this to themselves. on this occasion it was 10 flashes = pressure sensor.


    Thanks for all your help

    The full history of this machine is as follows:

    Came home from work one day to find timer constantly rotating, and a drum full of water, going no where. Put machine on its side to access the pump. Removed pipe that connects drum to pump and found the obligatory sock and £1.20. Connected evrything again and since then the drum fills up with too much water (by the way that has returned) and when washing begins it comes out the washing powder drawer and I am now 90{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure the outlet pipe at the pump. I have cleaned the pressure pipe and the white intersection. Could the weight of the water be the cause of the leak at the pump? Also, at the top of the pressuer pipe is a white ‘gauge’, which obviously tells the inlet valves to shut off . This gauge has 3 plastic screws which a phillips head screwdriver fits nicely. Just a guess but could adjusting these have an effect on the pressure tolerance?

    Appreciate the help so far.

    I did as you said Neptune. seems to have cured the overfill problem. Thanks
    It would appear though that the leak lies elsewhere. Only happens on drain. I felt all around the pipe from the drum to the pump and all around the pipe itself but there is no moisture. It is definitely around the front end of the machine but i think it might actually be coming from higher up. But is ther higher up that would only leak when draining and not with the drum filled.
