    Indesit WIDL146 - Fourth service light flashing

    Hi everyone :) been a while, hope you're all doing well! This wash machine won't start the program and just lets water in and then pumps it out, while showing the following message. The fourth LED from the left is flashing slowly while the door lock LED (technically 5th LED) is flashing much...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    I think I have a pair of spare relays from my Indesit washmachine that I think are similar to the one on this board so I'll save them for possible future problems. And I'll make sure to check the spade connecters next time. Thanks a lot Leccy! You know the actual long taking part was getting the...

    Pigeons dropping bombs in balconies

    Thanks guys, I'm liking the ideas so far! :lol: I'm sort of looking for something I can build myself.. something I don't need to purchase yet. But that website is very useful alastairreid - I'm checking out the items on there. I don't think I can fit a fake prey or prey-head to the balcony...

    Pigeons dropping bombs in balconies

    Pigeons basically love my metal airslits/filter box on top of my windows in my balcony. There were literally four pigeons sitting on it and crapping joyfully on my balcony floor. -__- Had to get a broom to get them away, but they came back... and this is the second time they've bombarded my...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    Thanks Leccy... it's hard to believe it is a heater fault though. I've ran one empty wash cycle and I remember very well how the heater worked. I think I'm gonna remove the casing again and look inside. :/ EDIT: Okay now it's working again! I think the cable was just not connected properly...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    I think I'm gonna get crazy :@ I waited for the empty wash for 2 hours and it completed normally for which I was really happy. Now I put all the metal casing of the machine back on just to clean up. I wanted to start another wash (with dishes) but this time it won't start and gives me...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    Another update on this: I opened up the whole machine - took me quite some time. Had to lay the machine to the right side and open the bottom to access the components. I oriented myself to find out what kind of components there are... but didn't touch anything else. There was some leakage...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    Update on this: I opened up the front and now have access to the control units and the cables. This seems to be the control unit. It looks clean to me. Capacitors don't look broken and the relay seems to be working as well. This thing seems to have melted or so... but I doubt that...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    The short circuit trips a double-switch where one of the switches has a test button (which makes it trip as well), so I don't know... it might be a combination of MCB and RCD, though it controls the electricity of more than 1 room. Another awkward thing is, that it even causes a short circuit...

    Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher Short-circuits

    My Indesit Ariston LI645A Dishwasher keeps getting short circuits after I close the door. I've had this problem a year ago and left the door open and it got fixed after not touching it 1-2 weeks. After that it worked perfectly for half a year. Now I got the problem again, I've tried leaving...

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    After the drying program, the machine gives out two flashing LEDs (number 2 and number 4). looked it up... "f05 lights 2&4, pressure sw stuck on full ": meaning either my pump filter is clogged or the pressure hose is blocked, pressure switch is not working right.... now I've cleaned my...

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    Great :( another error now... The washing did not finish. Right after the prewash/wash is done, the rinsing starts. The machine starts turning the drum and after one turn it stops and the two vertically arranged progress LEDs (which are usually on) turn off, while a horizontally arranged LEDs...

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    Thank you thank you thank you :))) I've removed the pressure switch from the hose. I blew into both the hose and the switch. Heard one distinct sound when blowing into the switch. Reattached the hose to the switch and connected them back. Started the machine, it started off with the...

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    I think I've done that already, but it's still difficult to reach... maybe I'll be better at describing it with a couple of photos:

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    Thank you for the reply rocks!! But how can I reach that? I opened up the back and the top of the machine, I think I know where the pressure hose is (it's a black elastic one). The circular thing that it is connected to it is attached to the top of the side wall of the machine, but the other end...

    Indesit Widl 146 Wash/Dry Machine - Overfilling + Leak

    Well... I recently got my machine fixed but there it goes again.... I guess I was happy too soon. -_- My wash/dry machine turns on like always and I don't get any error flash lights. I select the program I want it to run and it starts normal. It first lets water run through the pre-wash...

    Indesit WIDL 146 - Dryer Heater Relay Error

    Hey everyone! Thought I'd give an update for people who might have the same problem and are looking through such threads, and just for the sake of completion... The board works again! :)) I've brought the broken PCB to a group of experts and they seem to have replaced the capacitor at the...

    Indesit WIDL 146 - Dryer Heater Relay Error

    I'm a bit of a beginner when it comes to shipping etc. plus I don't live in the UK :( so this would be possible I guess, but difficult! I'll probably have this as my last resort! Yes, but there is no printed copper wire connected on that side. Great observation! Yes that C17 capacitor seems to...
