Ariston1400wd will not switch on. LED lights on door lock, timer delay,and rapid are all flashing

replace the motors brushes check the filters
and clear any bits of bra wire etc

then reset the machine {usually hold power in and apply the mains}

Hi gmarf....to reset your machine to cancel those symptoms, Unplug your machine from the Wall Outlet for a minimum of 1 minute. Upon restoring power, it should be reset and ready-to-go.....If you have any further questions or issues please update your post....good luck my friend

Many times faults like this can be cured by Uplugging the washer from the mains power supply and leaving for 10mins. Also check all filters, drain and supply lines are clear and not kinked.

Hi, sounds like you need to change the door interlock located where the door catch pushes into.
Take the top off and undo the two screws with a tork screwdriver
and replace.
(Remember to turn off the supply and pull out the plug top)

Dear RedBikeGirl

I've got a BWM129 which is causing me problems too (the washing is smelly at th eend of the cycle!) - How did you get the filter unit out of its housing, I turns around but doesn't seem to want to come out!

Any help gratefully received

Had a similar problem ,flashing red led means door not locked, I removed door from machine removed front from door and found hinge pin for lock had come adrift, religned pin and chapped back into position .THen replaced door and door to machine .dor shut and lock worked perfectly, hope this helps

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
