Hotpoint Aquarius WF220 Front Load Washer - Page 5 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Refer to hand book and check the drain filter is not blocked.

Hi,
If ALL the led's are flashing then the main power board needs replacing, however, if just some of the led's are flashing then its gone into error, the lights flashing give a code, more info needed like model number? and which lights flashing.
As i said, if its ALL the lighst then new power module needed.

Please rate my help.

Thank you

Most likely your drum bearings are worn out. This is a major repair.

You may be better off replacing the machine.

check pump/filter/outlet hose is not blocked. if ok check the brushes in the motor.

this could be one of the water valves not working (not opening)

check door interlock, may be faulty.
Unplug the washer before checking!

Be sure the lint filter is clean, and the temp sensor blown clean. Sometimes when cleaning the lint filter the some small amount of lint drops by the filter or screen and land on a hot spot. Lint can catch fire so clean with a air hose or vacuum cleaner - Good luck and be safe

there is a fault in ur machine best thing to do cheak the motherbord for any burn marks, cheak the pump or call an engineer
hope this helps :)

If it works fine with the heater off then i would say that fault appears to be element..the readings you get seem okay, put you meter onto megs and check, with wires off if you get electrical leakage between live and earth...Body....of element, it could be element is heating with no water in machine causing it to burn out..this is a problem with this machine...Wish you well

If there is water in it clean out filter,,located within Sump hose

While turning the motor by hand, I applied medium heat and high fan with a hairdryer. Strange remedy, but it worked, and all is back to normal.

hi take the top of the machine and check the brick at top or bottom of the machine they sometimes come lose .

Remove rear cover of washer, and top cover also, tilt washer towards you, get someone to hold washer steady, fit belt round motor pulley,and slowly feed belt round drum pulley, watch your fingers, keep feeding belt round oulley, turning drum at same time, it will be tight, but persist, and belt will go on.

Thanks.

Its not impossible but a real battle without the correct tools. If at the back of your washer, you have the main arm assembly, then firstly remove the belt and then the pulley.Undo the nuts holding the assembly and in short, pull that assembly off by pulling it towards yourself. Once off, you will see the bearings and seal that need to be replaced. Once done, reassemble carefully and god luck.

sounds like its in eng test mode un plug 4 an 1hour

lift lid of top reach to front and pull the wire cable up to the door latch make sure u unplug machine first

yes the ball should be in there,but shouldnt cause you any major problems if removed.

no take the sump hose off from the tub off the machine and check for blockages the machine wont spin unless it can drain the water out

sounds as if the drum bearings have gave way was it noisey b4 this

Your machine will not function till the right level of water is put into it automatically from your inlet source; it varies depending on the programme. The only thing you can do is to see that the mesh in your inlet pipe is not clogged; pressure should be good too at your wall faucet. You are welcome, also you can rate me good, thk u.
