Indesit WIA 101 gone loopy

[musicmaestro]

A while ago, the door lock led was flashing all the time (unless it was doing a wash, when it remained lit). Now it appears to carry out a part wash, either a wash or rinse cycle, and does not drain, or move on to the next sequence in the program.

The door interlock is working fine, as are the filter, pump and water inlet valves. I have checked the water level sensor with a meter and that is switching over ok.

Re-setting the machine by leaving it unplugged from the mains for 24 hours does not appear to have any affect, neither does following the instructions to interrupt a wash (although it will flash the current cylcle led (wash)).

It's looking like the main circuit board is shot unless anyone has any other ideas.

If it is the main circuit board, where would be the best place to purchase a new one?

When I've a problem with my washing machine, I've visited my local repair centre, told them the fault, and they have told me exactly what's wrong with it, and sold me the parts to fix it myself, do you have such a shop in your local town OP?

Even when parts have not been available from the manufacturer - they had a scrapper in, and were able to help.

Other than that, type any part numbers off the board into the internet. Good luck.
