I have a Candy CDI 1012. The machine is coming up to 8 years old and has worked faultlessly during that time. However, having set a P3 cycle to run overnight, on opening the door, the P3 LED was flashing rapidly and the machine had not completed the cycle (still full of water). I can't remember exactly what I did next, but I managed to get it to pump out before withdrawing it from the built-in unit.
Trying the simplest programme - the cold rinse cycle - the machine fills with water OK and starts to wash (spray) but, after maybe a minute, it starts to "pulse" - the motor runs, then the two LH LEDs (1/2 and P4) go off for about 1 second and the motor stops then restarts for a second and this pulsing cycle continues. Sometimes, after about a minute of pulsing, the motor will run normally again, maybe for 30 seconds or so, after which the pulsing starts again.
I've tried the test cycle (found on another thread answered by Zipper): the 2 left hand LEDs (1/2 & P4) flash 8 times.
After the test, closed door, 2 right hand LEDs (P2 &P1) lit, machine pumped out OK, then refilled and started washing OK for 1 minute, then “pulsing” started again.
Help will be very much appreciated !!
