Chris.Re: smeg dwf 710 e1 error 2nd light flashing 5th light on st
Belay that – should read the post properly. 2nd light flashing is the infamous E2 problem, not E1. Extensively reported throughout the forum for Diplomat and SMEG dishwashers….. Water level control problem, normally due to sludging up of lower tubes and fill matrix.
Sorry about that,
Penguin45.Re: smeg dwf 710 e1 error 2nd light flashing 5th light on st
Strictly speaking E1 is the anti flood system tripped. This can be the undertray flooded, causing the float switch to operate. Solution, drain the undertray, find the leak.
However………. The float can be jammed in the “up” position, giving the fault, the switch itself can go faulty, wiring and connectors can play up and finally, the “timer” (computer board) can be faulty.
When the fault occurs, the drain pump should run for about 1.5 mins – if it runs on indefinitely, the timer is most likely at fault.
If your repairer was a SMEG approved agent, the first thing to do is kick up a dust with them.
If you’re going to have a peek yourself, pull the plug first :plug: .

Penguin45.Re: ariston – dryer – error F10
You will need to check that the water level switch works, that the hose leading to it is not trapped or holed and that the chamber at the bottom is not choked with old soap and the like.
If you are unable to do this, you must get professional help.
If you are going to have a look yourself, pull the plug first. :plug:

Ah, you must have the power Bernie……. The only flap I can think of off the top of my head is part of the top basket spray tube coupling? No doubt others will recall more.

Re: Neff 6544wm
Mark,
Try Bosch WMV6810 or New World HLE19001, they are both variants of it. I’m sure there was an Ariston version as well, but the model escapes me. Our local wholesalers declared it to be a Zerowatt (as opposed to a Kwatt) based machine, so maybe another avenue there.Chris.
Re: speed queen
Big clunky American commercial stuff Jim – bits of them respond very well to being belted, but probably not this!

Re: Reccomendations?
White Knight is still a good “value for money” purchase, Whirlpool and Zanussi do decent vented dryers in that price range.
WK – CL447 + WHK847
Zan – TD4112W + TD212
Wpl – AWZ3413These all drop into your budget.

Quite a few possibilities, Bernie. If you hold the start button down for about 5 seconds, you will cancel the existing programme. If you then reset the programme and start it and the fault recurs, when the door is opened you should be able to observe the programme LEDs lit. Which ones are lit can help us with a diagnosis. If you imagine them as numbered 1 – 5 from the left, and let us know, we shoulf be ablle to narrow things down for you.

Please don’t do anything with the machine live, Charlie. This is a well known problem on these machines and is caused by the digital control board in the bottom of the machine. £60-70 IIRC, but “PNC” number will be required as there are several different versions.
Regards,
Penguin45.Nope, it’s awful. Just learnt more about these things in the 20 seconds it took to read this post than just working from the fault codes and experience. Why can’t your esteemed employers just tell us this stuff?
This just typifies so much of what is wrong with the relationship between the manufacturers and the engineers. After the guarantee period, we independents take over a lot of the repair work. Towards “end of life”, we’re much happier to recommend appliances which we get support on, or will happily keep an ‘old ‘un going ‘cos we’ve got the info.
I doubt any of us in here would honestly recommend Indesit. Trouble is that we’re going that way with Hotpoint now as well. Great shame.
