Ouch! Not cheap! Time to look at new dishwashers I fear.
Thanks for that — diagnosis is appreciated.

Looks perfect — I’ll give it a go and report back!

ParticipantRe: Repairing rusty baskets
That’s what I feared – it’s a pretty harsh environment in there.
Oh well — time to look at prices for new baskets. Trouble is it’s probably more sense to just get a new dishwasher than pay £150 for new bits 🙁

Amazing that ths thread is still going! I finally gave in and got rid of mine so if anyone can find a use for my spare front and rear boards then they’re very welcome to them — they’re on ebay, just to cover postage:

Just some info for fellow sufferers of the whirlpool fridge freezer!
Mine is now on its 3rd front control panel. First was fitted about 5 years ago. Second about 18 months ago – that one is from “ITW ISPRACONTROLS” with a manufacturer date of 04/09. That failed last week (the familiar clicking, flashing lights) and I’ve replaced it with yet another.
We’re hoping it carries on working until after Christmas and then the whole thing is off to a skip and will be replaced by something more reliable! (I’ll strip the old one for bits in case they might help other sufferers).
Now I know why the previous owners left it in the house when they moved!

Perfect — thanks for that. Took about 3 mins so fingers crossed things start to improve now!

I’m being daft, but how does the old one come off? I’ve removed the cover (one screw) but can’t see any fixings for the diffuser itself?

In case it’s useful for someone, I’ve put my faulty front board on ebay:

Might be useful if you want to give replacing the cap.s a go but don’t want to risk trashing your current board.

ParticipantRe: Indesit WIDL 126 s flashing error 1,2 and 4
It’s late 🙂
I’ve got a WIDL 126 S.
The drying fan has stopped working. Opening the housing up reveals the fan & motor to be quite stiff to turn. Very curiously, a small amount of water wept out around the top of the spindle, past the bearings, when I was playing with it – didn’t expect water anywhere near there.
I think I’m doomed to just buying a new motor, but wondered if there was anything else to try. Is it a common failure?

ParticipantIndesit WIDL 126 s drying fan not working
I think I’ve got the same problem as
http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/modules.p … ly&t=20685
It’s quite stiff to turn, and a small amount of water just wept out around the top of the spindle! Very odd.
Is it best to just replace the motor..?

ParticipantRe: Indesit WIDL 126S fails to dry
Turned out to be the thermal link. Anyone know where I might get one on-line? It’d be nice to get one ordered tonight rather than call Indesit tomorrow…
(The condenser was also full of gunk, so ta for suggesting giving it a god cleaning!)

ParticipantRe: Indesit WIDL 126S fails to dry
Ta — I’ll try a nice, careful investigation tomorrow 🙂 Looks very cramped around the back of the drum…
