Re: Indesit WIB111 stops before spin cycle during wash

Hi guys. Just an update to this, after taking the above mentioned off, stripping and cleaning all the pipework and putting dishwasher tablets through it on a hot wash, it corrected itself.

It could be that I knocked a connector or something like, who knows??? I was all for scrapping it and it just started working again.

Edit, found another guide which makes more sense lol.

That flashing LED would indicate F17 too then. Door lock

Re: Indesit WIB111 stops before spin cycle during wash

Many thanks to you both for the advice. I’m familiar with industrial electrical equipment so I’ll be checking the connections with it isolated! 😉

With regards to the code reading, do you have a ‘how to’ for my machine? I had a look in the help an advice section on here but it seems to contradict code F01 coming from the fourth LED lit. That makes it F08 or am I reading the wrong type of guide in the link below?

Re: Indesit WIB111 stops before spin cycle during wash

A little bit of an update to this, we have used it twice now since Sunday and it seems to be behaving which leads me to think it’s the main PCB. I’m certainly not calling out Indesit to it.

Indesit may do the repair for a fixed labour charge of around £120 but will also try to stitch you up with a 12 month contract, so you end up paying £180. 😥

You can check the motor and the motor brushes but worn brushes should give a different fault such as the door not locking correctly etc.

Ok thanks for the info, I’ll have a word with our local repair shop, if they say the same, the Indesit will be going in the skip. I’m sure we only paid something like £225 for it and that was to replace a Zanussi that was at least TEN years old, but the motor went pop!

I thought we’d have got more than 3years out of it. It honestly looks new internally. Buy cheap, buy twice I suppose :rolls:

Sadly this is F01 and means a faulty motor triac, could be bad connections but more likely to be faulty main pcb or motor. 😥

Oh great :rolls: Thanks for the advice 😉

Is there any way I can test the motor apart from making sure the connections are good? What does triac mean? If the main PCB is at fault, can I just change it or will I need a technician to do it?

From the left, the second LED (rapid wash) was flashing

Re: Indesit WIB111 stops before spin cycle during wash

Oh right, well in that case, there’s only two LED lights apart from the door locked symbol.

Starting from the left, the anti crease LED was off and the rapid wash was flashing.
