Simpson eziloader 5.5kg washing machine When i turn it on and select a program the machine clicks and the light flashes three times and then turns off the cycle (the cycle does not commence).

The lights that flash correspond to the cycle selected, all the lights for the user functions are the ones that flash. The orange LED just flashes 00:00.

check the lid switch,it is activated by a magnet set into the lid,magnet may be gone or switch is faulty

Either way around it doesn't matter. Unless it is marked with a P & N or + & - then red would go to P or +

Start machine as normal. After a few seconds of filling, press the pause button. Water coming in should stop immediately. If it hesitates then stops or does not stop at all you have a faulty inlet valve. Change it.

sounds like blocked pump or door latch sensor/switch more likely pump blocked.thats normally first to activate in wash cycle.if unsure seek help to locate and check.it ll be either accessable from bottom front of machine or you may need to tip it up as it ll be at bottom of machine.unplug first,and if you pull pipes off pump to access there will be some water.hold waste pipe as low as itll go to release any water left in machine

it is worth having it properly diagnosed first before making a decision to spend money
could be a program board or start run capacitor

Hi,
You can try to reset the program by pulling out the plug and then put something (iron like a screwdriver) between the 2 pins of the plug.this wil cause the voltage that remains in the circuit to short connect and will so reset the memory in the program.

It appears your timer/main controller/CCU 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.

The motor controller or ECU is to blame.

Have them checked & replace as necessary.
