Not a problem, let us know what you find if you can test the components.

ModeratorRe: Indesit WIXL123 Rubber Smell
It’s not unknown for the drum support spider to break. This will cause the drum to run off centre under full speed and rub against the seal. You can usually tell if the drum appears a little off centre when turning.

Sadly the inner and outer drum on this entry level machine is one complete, sealed unit so any faults inside the drum are usually not worth doing.
Is the machine a little noisy on final spin?

I have split your post from the thread you posted it in. Guessing you are not a regular user of online forums but posting a question about a recent Hotpoint machine in a 2 year old thread about a totally different fault on an Indesit washer is not the way to go. 🙂
To trace the fault on your machine you will need a good quality multimeter or better still a megger, and know how to use them.
With the mains plug removed all components and wiring will need to be checked for insulation faults. The heater and main motor would be the first things to check.

ModeratorRe: Indesit IDCL85BH front drum bearing pads
Top off, left hand (from rear) side panel off and you will be able to see the jockey pulley, see if is loose or ‘waggly’. 🙂

At that age I would say that it is 99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain that the front bearing pads are OK. Could be jockey pulley failing.

I would be carefully checking the rear ‘teardrop’ bearing and drive shaft first of all.
If the metal drum shaft has worn badly then a new drum is required. 🙁
If you get a pile of black dust falling out when you remove the rear plastic cover then it’s likely the rear bearing has failed.
Have you checked this machine to see if it one that is subject to the fire risk/ safety recall?

ModeratorRe: Indesit IDCL85BH front drum bearing pads
Possibly, just about but would advise removing both side panels which is quite easy then the console needs removing.
If you are then VERY CAREFUL, you should be able to pull the front panel forward far enough to allow you to reach down to access the bearing pads.
Unless the machine has been absolutely hammered I would be very surprised if the bearing pads have worn away on this machine though????

New board is around £110, but you will need a £20 smart card and a £128 card reader to program the board.
When tracks blow then 99{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of the time a fault elsewhere has caused it. Motor, doorlock, drain pump are all common candidates.
You could send the board to EMW electronics who will repair the board and may give you an indication of what caused it to fail.
As far as the kick strip is concerned you would need to give us the full model number/commercial code/serial number as there are several variants.

In case he asks it was me wot dun it. Just deleted another thread from totalshambles, once again talking total bollocks. Initially about Partsmaster but ended with him being sarcastically rude about other trade members because they didn’t agree with him.

What happens if you set it to a spin only cycle?

ModeratorRe: Indesit IWB5113
When all the horizontal lights flash you need to make a note of any of the right hand vertical lights are on steady, not flashing. the bottom five lights are used for the error codes with the lowest light counting as No: 1.

I think a replacement timer is going to be your best option
