Indesit WIE167 washing machine, displaying F03,

"F03" displayed on screen The washer is not emptied. The washer stops the program being executed. Shut down the machine and disconnect power supply. Check: • Drain pipe is knotted or not. • Filter in drain pump is blocked or not (refer to the cleaning of filter in drain pump) Hisense Washing Machines User Operation Manual Page 7

Stop banging your machine this doesn't work

Ok the machine needs to be drained. Then switch the machine on again. The door should open.

F12 - Communication error between main printed circuit boards. check connections.

locate element and remove you should then be able to remove bra wire they normally get caught around element

check electric connection on the pump and check pump electro motor.

Hi, and welcome to Fixya.
F03 is indicating that the wash thermistor is open or short circuit.
The thermistor is part of the water heating circuit,so the only thing you can do is to test the heating element for continuity or an earth fault..If faulty, replace.
If it is o/k then you will have to call an engineer.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks, And a merry xmas.

Hi.
The code F03 means the wash thermistor is open circuit.

Unfortunately, you will have to call an engineer.

Cheers.

probably filter blocked. if memory serves me right, filter is located in pipe from sump to pump. remove bottom back panel. remove sump hose where ir is clamped to tub and filter is inside this pipe, take out and clean

Indesit washing machine error code 3 (F03) On certain Indesit washing machines, if the on off light is flashing 3 times, with a slight pause, followed by flashing a further 3 times, or if it is didplaying F03 you have an error code that is explained as follows -
NTC fault - check Thermistor and module connections.
The NTC is the thermistor, which is a modern-day thermostat. It’s inserted into a tube in the heating element and is filled with heat sensitive crystals that change their electrical resistance according to their temperature. By knowing what electrical resistance the crystals have at given temperatures they can tell the water temperature.
With this fault the NTC is either faulty, or there’s a dodgy connection to or from it or there’s a connection problem where it connects to the main PCB.
It’s not something you can easily fault find yourself unfortunately, apart from if there was an obvious broken wire.
