Re: Indesit D61 Dishwasher
You asked this very same question yesterday and got an answer which you replied to. 😕
It helps if you use your original post so that anyone else reading it can follow it correctly.
You would appear to have a pump blockage, the timer will click round if an error is detected.Click the link in my sig to see if we have someone who can help you.
Re: hotpoint wma40
Possibly time for an engineer, check the link in my sig to see if we have someone who can help. There are certain test procedures that he/she can use to try to identify the problem. It sounds as though it may be the control module that is at fault, however it rather expensive to change without first eliminating all other possible causes such as the door lock itself.
Advisable to change the door lock in any event as these do have a habit of damaging the control module.
Please remove the mains plug if you intend to go inside. 😉

Re: How easy we engineers have it now!
I still have my contract from the time I started at Hotpoint or BDA as it then was. May 1969. salary £810 per annum, hours 40 per week. 😯
I was given a large, Perkins diesel engined Ford Transit, three weeks training in Nottingham ( happy days & nights 😉 ) Then after three days with a field trainer I was released on the unsuspecting public of Manchester. Initially a Basic (Vacs, wringers, twin tubs, table ironers etc) engineer. after 18 months I was given a box of fridge thermostats, bulbs and the odd fridge door catch ( many times stronger than a dishwasher door latch) and informed that I was now a fully trained fridge engineer. In those days we did not do any regassing, the whole refrigeration unit came mounted on a metal frame and you swapped the full gubbins in one go. The advent of two temp, auto defrost later made that impractical. I have to say that it was one of the happiest times of my life. I enjoyed the job then just as much as I still do today. It was a time when you still had pride in the company and the customers gave you respect. I later did the auto course at Nottingham and when Hotpoint reintroduced a range of Bosch made dishwashers became the first engineer in the Manchester area to go on the D/W course in Peterborough.
Today, I don’t have sat nav, I have ‘The Knowledge’. I do not give my customers my mobile number but use it for my convenience only. There are only a few benefits to being self employed and one of them is that you can choose your customers. Almost all of my customers are polite, friendly ( its a Northern thing) and aggro is something that is I do not get, nor would I tolerate it for the sake of a few ££’s.
The modern machines are to me, just another challenge, sometimes you do feel that it is not worth the effort on one of the spaghetti munchers finest, when you feel that you have to run back to the car and do an F1 racing start so that you can get round the corner before it breaks down again. 😥
The one thing that is different is the traffic, there is no rush hour now in this area, it is virtually crawling along at all hours of the day. Although I did once do a month long secondment in the London area at the time of the 3 day week, around 1971 if my memory is correct. Power cuts happened without warning, driving round Marble Arch in my big tranny with no traffic lights working was quite enjoyable at the time. 8)
In conclusion I would have to say that it is not a lot easier today, nor would I agree with Ken when he says it is ‘a lot harder’. Its just a different world, some things are better and some are not. On balance I would say that I would not like to be starting out in this business today, but then that could just be my age. 😆
Re: Indesit W123UK BG
Pressure switch is a C00088393. Module is C0093157, Eeprom is C00089846.
would still advise sending the module to EMW, they will turn it round almost a soon as you can order a new one with a good saving on cost of new module & eeprom combined.
Re: Indesit W123UK BG
Very common module fault. Send it to Tony at EMW for repair, if you order a new one you will need to order an eeprom as well. Couple of different pressure switches, need serial number to ID, has it got the metal or plastic outer drum?

Re: Cats
No problem, :tup: but as you can see, lack of any punctuation can make even the most interesting posts unreadable. Once you get past three or four lines in such a post, your brain shuts off and you turn to something else. 😆

Spare parts can be gotten for Baumatic , that just does not scan nicely at all, obtained, acquired etc, would read far better 🙂
