Hotpoint Aquarius WF440 fault - please help!!

[eccles030]

Hi everyone, this is my first post here!

I have a major problem, my Aquarus wf440 gets about 25 minutes (ish) into a wash then stops and pumps out water. Then the rinse hold and time saver buttons flash with the on/off button flashing even faster. (buttons 3&4).

I've read a bit about this but can't find out what the real problem is. Is anyone able to tell me what it could be? Is it worth repairing?

Any help will be appreciated!

Cheers,
Sue

yes you have f03 ntc prob . it can be two things the ntc is on the heater two thin bue wires on it .Remove plug from mains and NTC sensor, use the probes to perform a resistance test. You should get a reading in kOhms. Replace plug in NTC, remove matching plug on pcb, and measure from that end - you should get a very similar reading. if not then a pcb fault ex board will cost about 45 quid from emw .
