ParticipantI had a fault with mine exactly the same and the machine was reporting F08 error, I believe it may be PCB related as mine was reset and it went away, since then though my PCB seems to have failed totally! Nice looking machines but un-reliable…

ParticipantHmmm – I am no washing machine expert but am fine with electronics / electricals. Swapping bits is fine, but diagnosis with no knowledge isn’t! I may be better getting the Indesit call out sorted, I believe they diagnose and change parts for a flat fee of around £100? Saves me mis-diagnosing something I suppose… Has anyone does this before, any feedback?
Thanks for your info Penguin, very helpful and I may email for parts once I get the serial number..
Cheers.snb
ParticipantRe: Indesit Evolution 1600 WE16S – F-02 Error????
Problem is, it looks like my main board is faulty, but as I have an intermittent fault, they may come out and find no fault and not change any parts, this incurrs a £34.95 charge…. Sods law, I wish it would break once and for all then there’s no arguing!

I went to the Currys web site where the link takes you and the price is back up well over £300!!!! 😯 What about Zanussi, are their units any good? I was looking at the Zanussi ZWF1221S
Thanks.snb

Top Man – Thanks for the link and your help….. 😀
Would you believe it, my dishwasher has now started playing up just now, turn it on and the lights come on but no cycle starts, it;s only 2 months old too! It’s Hoover… 😳

I always thought Hotpoint and Hoover were good makes also, seems not the case…. I’ll have a look for a Bosch, but I need a silver one to match the rest of the kitchen!!!
Hmmm Bosch WFX148SGB – Only £500! 😯

What do you suggest in your expert opinion? My budget is £250-£300. I am pretty dissapointed with my Indesit seeing I spent over £300 and it’s breaking down only after 2 years of ownership. Sounds like Italian washing machines are like Italian cars, look good but break down all the time….
Cheers.

Been looking at the following…….
Samsung B1245SGSX
Hoover HNL6136S
Hotpoint WF340G
Servis M6003SThis is the replace my tempremental Indesit WE16S. Any thoughts or comments on my shortlist? So far the Samsung looks like a good unit from the reviews I have read…. Cant find any info on here about it.
Thanks.

just work out how much these cheapo, disposable machines are costing you in the long term.
Same answer to your last question, snb. 🙂
What do you suggest is a better machine on the same sort of level in cost / functionality of the Indesit WE16S???

ParticipantRe: Indesit Evolution 1600 WE16S – F-02 Error????
Hi – I also have an Indesit WE16S and have the F02 error, stopping part way through a cycle and just taking in water, it also moves quite a lot now on a spin and makes a whining noise…. Also get F03 on spin cycle..
I’m wondering if the 5 year parts warranty is worth anything really and need some advise…..
I can either pay £89.98 single callout charge and all parts are free, but the work is only guaranteed for 14 days, if I get any further probs after this it’s another £89.98 😯
Or I can pay £149.98 for a callout and to also have 12 months warranty, so in effect a 1 off payment for a years peace of mind….
In my mind I may as well scrap the machine and pay £200 odd quid on a brand spanking new machine without ploughing good money into a machine which after reading up on the net seens un-reliable.
What do you guys think?
Cheers. -
