is the thermister

[helo_75]

if the thermistor was faulty or out of calibration, the machine would show an f3 fault

to be fair, they dont fail very often, and a heater element should cure your fault
i think theres two different heaters on that machine, so it may be worth taking it out and measuring it
thermisters are inexpensive, and may well be worth changing at the same time if your not sure

let us know how u get on

oh well, prey tell, mr clever cloggs what would you say?

another one, who after 12 posts chips in on a post which has never been relevant to them in any way

continue, little man, customers like you NEVER get what they want

for future reference, mr seaton, when i require an opinion from you, ill make a point asking you, until then.. go away

[helo_75]

duff heater? its the only fault that would wouldnt show a fault code

[helo_75]

oh, and sludge in the drain outlet can cause that, doesnt allow the machine to breath

[helo_75]

Re: Indesit WIDL102 washer/dryer flashing LEDs

actually, it does matter, if the end of the drain hose itself is lower than the water level, it will cause the machine to syphon

much like syphoning petrol out of a tank, once the pipe is lower than the level of the petrol in the tank, and a vacuum is created, the petrol will syphon until theres none left

mr p is spot on, the end of the hose must ultimately be higher than the water level of the machine.. thats why theres usually a red line on the back of the machine somewhere

basic physics really

[helo_75]

the last post was a joke , by the way… hotpnt is spot on

if you must try and save, get a zanussi or a bosch, dont buy hotpoint on the grace of your old machine, you’ll only be dissapointed!!

[helo_75]

well, theres a nice looking machine in comet, bargain price, fast spin, silver under £200

reliability the same as bosch

its called HAIER

[helo_75]

have you seen a hotpoint 3 phase motor yet? im starting to wonder?

[helo_75]

pretty good chance pcb is goosed

need an eprom too

hotpoint will do a fixed price repair for £100

[helo_75]

lol, yeah, but that doesnt make any money

[helo_75]

and what price are they prey tell?

Re: Hotpoint BWD129 – Not emptying – How to remove filter co

completlystumped wrote:Hi,

we have a bwd129, the filter cover is a right pain to remove best solution is to use a set of grips and keep turning from left to right whist pulling at the same time hope this helps .,

also hope its the last problem you have with the machine {see clicking bwd 129}

…… and at some point youll snap the handle off and leave a hole, or at best break off the rear filter bit, which is integral to the way the machine empties

best way is to unplug it , take the pump off properly, remove rear base of pump, take out foreign object and reassemble

as the two guys have already said, it WILL be something in there, and that certainly isnt the machines fault…

they might be a pile of rubbish, but sometimes, you cant just put it down to that

[helo_75]

i reckon

the pin to activate the door switch has fallen off

open the door

just above the door opening is a small hole.. on the door, in the same place should be a small shaft attatched to it which locates into the hole, activating the switch

it could be bent, or missing!!

proofs in the pudding… stick a screwdriver in the hole, then press start

if it starts, its the pin thats the problem!!!

let us know how u get on, please

[helo_75]

but then the door locks where always a nit iffy on the tdl range.. always a good place to start
