Suggest you take the back off and home in on the water input filter. They are often gunged up with lime scale. Do pull the plug on it before you attack it with a wrench etc.

because of the short time this runs then stops, there could be maybe 3 faults, 1 check water inlet valves and supply for water flow 2 check for any motor action (use another programme) 3 check heater element for open circuit number 1 or number 3 sounds most likely hope i have helped, if so rate me please

SOURCE: Indesit 1000 cycle starts but then lights flash

Check the filter which is under the white panel at the front of the machine(the filter is in the lower right hand corner). Unscrew the filter and remove it. Mine was blocked with loads of grease/limescale. I cleared it out and the machine is as good as new again. I cleared the system with half a packet of soda crystals put into the main drum (on its own without any washing in!) and did a wash at 90degrees. Its as good as new now. Good luck. CK

It appears your timer/main controller has failed in this instance.

For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...


FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.

PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.


If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.


Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.

If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.

My indesit wixl143s, fills with water normally but immediately it drains. washing movements do not start. When manually set to rinse and spin cycles it works.

I would like to know is there any fault code?
Identification of the error code using the 4 LEDs. One or more different combinations of LEDs indicates the failure.

Door lock and extra rinse light flashes

is it the tub that clunks?was it very noisy in the spin cycle?if so the spider gear is gone and it would be cheaper to replace the washer.you should only be adding two tablespoons of soap that's it,alot of people use to much soap and it eats at the spider gear,if you look inside the tub at the back wall you'll see a piece sign,that's the gear located on the back of the tub

I have an indesit wil133 .when one wash finished,the red flashing light came on ,so i could open the door,but also the delay timer & stain remover lights were flashing. now when i try to put another...

I would go to the manufactures website and download the user guide and look in the trouble shooting guide or I would check the water pump to see f there's not an obstruction in the pump preventing the pump from emptying the drum completely as if the water sensor is not telling the machine its empty therefore it cant start again

My indesit WG1230 washing machine does not spin or move drum but water go in and out.

Hi,
With the door open, try spinning the drum, there should be some resistance along with a slight wherring sound. If it spins freely without much sound at all - you probably need a new belt.
If you can feel it driving the motor, you may need new contact brushes for the motor.
If the machine buzzes when it should rotate on program, you need a new motor Run capacitor also.
If no sound - nothing, the motor may need replacing or at least checking.

Fixing broken door lock of Indesit W123X washing Machine

no easy way to open
disconnect from mains
take top off. feel down the front to where the door lock is and see if you can feel the door peg sticking thro the door interlock. force this with your fingers and with luck the door will open
if can't do this way, break handle off and lever peg with a small screwdriver
you can buy a handle kit complete. fitting this is not difficult - split the door and all will be revealed advise you make a carefull note of where springs go etc before you start stripping it down or take a few fotos if you have a digicam
