Hotpoint Aqaurius WF000 - Flashing Energy save and... (by 5 users)

Report abuse

My machine has started to flash leds with the energy save button and the on/off simultaneously whilst it sounds like the machine is also trying to pump out. I have to unplug it to stop it from doing this and no amount of pressing buttons seems to help (not surprisingly I suppose!) Is there a way to solve this without having it serviced for the second time in 3 months? Thanks!

I have the same problem.

I have a Hotpoint Aquarius WF 440; When turned on water flows through the soap powder tray but drum does not fill, it then rotates and the on/off switch light flickers and then after going throught the correct sequence of lights the light to the left in a vertical row which starts with "mini load" then "reduce crease" the reduce crease starts to flicker,and apart from the drum rotating the machine does not wash.

check your pump for any blockages it may not be pumping out fast enough the tomer only gives the pump a certain amount of time to pump all the water out if has got some blockage than clean out and this should sort the problem out always check pockets if this is no help let me know and ill let u know what else it could be m8

try running a cold wash. if it works its likely to be the heating element because the water isnt getting to temp and just holds its cycle!. It happened to me about 1 year ago i fixed it and now its happening again.
