Hi guys an girls. i know a fair bit about washers but am really stuck at the moment. Went to look at a friends machine its a hotpoint, well ariston, its 17 months old and it wont stop filling with water when the machine is switched on. Its one of the new models that only has a cold fill pipe. I have changed the inlet valve, checked the pressure switch and all contacts. Have looked on the main board and nothing appears to be burnt out. I am bit old school when it comes to washers so i am not big up on PCB's.... It will go through the full cycle no problems but ii have to keep switching the water feed off when it reaches the correct level.. any help would be appreciated. many thanks in advance... |

Hi, Even on spin it will fill up with water if i leave the water pipe turned on. As soon as the start button is pressed the water just keeps filling regardless of what programme its on. FAVORIT, yes the pump kicks in when the water level fills half way to the door. I have checked all the wiring and there is no break in the connection all the way to the board. BERTRUM, hi, pressure switch is fine no problems with it. i really have this horrible feeling its going to be a problem with the main board so will have to remove it and have a proper inspection. Just dont like these new machines there is very little in them to service properly just a few wires and a board lol cheeers guys for your input.. |

It looks to me like you have a valve problem. NorfolkSouthern |
