F08 means you have a heater fault and in this case because the water isnt getting hot the program wont advance. Check out the heater and related wiring. If you dont already know the heater is at the rear of the machine. For more information about error codes go to www.selfix-uk.co.uk

Hi my hotpoint washing machine is near 3 years old the last few weeks it is making a terrible noise when on spin only. \r\nthe noise is really loud but everything is washing and drying the same its just...

Sounds loike the main drum bearings have failed.
Spin the drum by hand from the front, and if it feels rough, or is rumbling or grating, then the main bearigs have failed.
Quite an expensive repair, unless it is covered by the Hotpoint 5 year parts guarantee, check with Hotpoint.

I have a hotpoint wf840 everytime i enter a wash cycle it just says test and performs a spin cycle whilst test still comes up on the screen is there anything i can do other than buy a new washing machine

Try the following, may work:
  1. Press the Start/Cancel button together until all the console Led's illuminate
  2. Press both Start/Cancel and On/Off buttons together until 'd off' appears
  3. Default screen should return and you can select a new programme

Error F-02 is a slow drain problem. Undo and remove the wide tapering pipe from the bottom of the drum to the pump. Inside you will find a non return ball valve, clean this and your problem should be solved

Hotpoint ultima super silent w f 840 shows fault 03

Code f03 means wash thermistor open circuit, this is normally part of the heating circuit, suggest you test heater and thermistos located in the end of the heater, and replace if necesscary. If heater o/k , then could be bad connection to control module, or broken wire, if still no joy, then call Hotpoint.
Please rate my solution.
Thanks.

Noisy spin on hotpoint aquarius WF530 6kg washing machine. Suspect bearing how do I replace them.

If you spin the drum by hand, and it is niosy and rumbling then the main drum bearings have failed.
If under 5 years old, then you should be able to get it repaired under Hotpoint 5 year guarantee, You just pay for labour and call out, cheapest option, it is not really a D.I.Y job, as it is quite involved, and entails a lot of work.
Please rate my advice.
Thanks.

Programme not moving on

This is not something like a belt or a motor then...It's probably the Logic in the control system.

Your best bet is have a hotpoint engineer diagnose it - and fit a new control module. To buy from hotpoint they range from 70 to 90 Sterling.

In england the call out is £90 and they actually don't charge for parts if the machine less than 5 years old.

Hotpoint Ultima WF840

all i can suggest with the info you have given, is to remove the lid and check for anything lose like the weight block etc also have you checked the inner drum for play, maybe the bearings have gone please not to all it is not safe to continue to run machines that are making noises, they can only get worse making more damage, what can start off as something silly can eventually write off the machine start with that and see how you go, glad to help, if i have helped please rate me
