Re: Indesit WD12 problem – programme does not start

The description of the brushes is a little confusing. Is it a single “Carbon brush assembly” or is it a set of two “Indesit/Ariston Washer & Wash Dryer ICE Carbon Brushes”?

Please tell me if I am being thick?

Checked the brushes and they are worn out, at the end of the sprung loaded travel.

Having taken then off and put them back on I thought I would see if that was just enough to re-seat them and prove it is the brushes ( past experience with a car alternator many years ago). Hey presto the machine springs back in to life. Boy did the take some explaining to the wife – a) why the worked and b) why she could not do any washing with the machine tonight :))

Many thanks for the help and suggestions. I’ll post again when I have identified, purchased and fitted new brushes to confirm that it was those that was causing the fault. If it isn’t then they need replacing anyway and its the lower of the two costs any way (Brushed/Control PCB)

Cheers.

I forgot to mention that the door locks/unlocks as you would expect it to.
