Hotpoint WF541

I have the on/off light and the mini load light both flashing. This according to the simple owners manual should mean the filter is blocked but have checked filter & hoses all clear. Non return valve ok, elec connection to pump ok. Seeing earlier reply from Rocks so checked pressure switch hose but still fault shows.

To describe sequence, turn on, press start, door locks, water fill starts, water fill stops, pause, water fill starts again, stops fill, pause, click, pause, click empties with on/off and mini load lights flashing.

Any ideas

wot number light is mini load 1 2 3 or 4

iwillfixit · 15 Feb 2010

Hi Rocks1,

The lights are not numbered but if you go top to bottom then mini load is the 4th one down, is that how it works on numbering?

Many thanks for responding and appreciate your help.
