You got error fo8. Heater relay on the pcb.

Thanks, you seem very knowledgeable. Is it possible that the fault is intermittent? The machine seems to working fine today.

Yes the relays are sticking on the pcb. It may work for a few weeks but then error again.

i had The same problem with my hotpoint washing machine(flashing lights). first I wanted to change the board but then I came up with a better solution. basically just add the water manually where do you usually add powders. add 1 or 2 litre of water as you turn your program on. i did this and the problem was solved. i havent had the flashing lights even when i dont add water manually. hope this solutions works on yours too.
