Re: Help please flooding Zanussi DCE5655

This same problem happens o my same machine about once a fortnight.
I resort to tipping machine forward (whilst kids try bravely to catch all the water with pans) and then reset the cycle and start again.

Washes fine other than this problem.

Sometimes it just sits there going pump;pump;pump;pump – power off and still it goes pump;pump;pump;pump.

This forum educated me to tipping it forward and emptying. Oh and taking both the round filter and the metal mesh and giving it a good scrub up helps too. Remove spray arm and undo its “collar” anti clockwise and remove. I find the spray arm and its collar fills wth debris/fluff/hair (how?) etc and needs to be regularly declogged.

I often wonder if its all clogged inside and I wonder if its worth buying the cleaning pot you can buy rfom supermarkets and put inside dishwashers. But I think adverts lie, so I darent try it (and waste my hard earned literally down the drain)

Fast switch is off.
Thanks, I suspected the thermostat to be at fault too – just needed another opinion from the experts to back up my theory.
Thanks for your help – I couldn’t find th part on the whitegoods site, but googled what I wanted and I have found the thermostat for about £25 – I think its worth a go.
BTW, is the thrmostat located inside the fridge area behind the plastic cowling on the back panel of the fridge interior. Or have I got to get to very back of teh appliance?

Thanks,

Sarah

Thanks it was that! I pulled the machine out found the export pipe was kinked and I emptied out. Tested ok. Thanks very much!

Re: Indesit Washer / dryer fault – maybe logic?

Found out the machine was under warranty (phew)
Fault turned out to be the motor had gone.
I think the engineer had to also replace a PCB as one of those was left behind after the repair too.

Thanks everyone for all your help!

Only problem I have now is that now I have working machine, can’t lumber washing on the boyfriend anymore lol

Re: Indesit Washer / dryer fault – maybe logic?

I’m now thinking maybe pump gone, as it makes a little thump when door lock engages which is normal, but then it should making the whoosh noises as it draws water in. If its not drawing water in, maybe its the pump at fault?
