Have just had washing machine delivered attached all the pipes correctly tturned it on and start/pause button light continues to blink machine will not do anything

Candy Washing Machine

1. Push and hold the FIRST Option Button with LED top right.
2. Turn the Program's Selector Knob 2 clicks clockwise.
3. After about 5 seconds, release the FIRST Option Button.
4. If the previous procedure was correctly carried out, all LEDs are turned ON simultaneously.
5. Press the START/PAUSE Button to start the self test mode

Drain pump may be obstructed.

It's hard to tell by the way you've phrased the question whether or not the button is doing what it is supposed to do, or if it is just the light indicator that is not working. So, I will answer both scenarios. // Press start button fully until you hear machine start; (usually less than one full second). In other words, hold button in until ''start'' is _heard_. After start has begun, holding button for 3 full seconds will ''pause'' the cycle. After ''pause'' pressing button again (just like first time) will restart cycle (i.e. ''take it off pause''). But while ''paused'' holding the button in again for any longer than a fraction of a second will cancel the wash. // TO CLARIFY: Press button for approx 1 second to start wash. After start has begun, pressing button for 3 seconds will ''pause'' wash. While ''paused'' pressing button again for less than a second (i.e. ''quick press of button'') will ''resume'' wash. Also, while ''paused'', pressing button for longer than a second (usually 3 seconds) will cancel the wash. // If the machine is (otherwise) working correctly, and your complaint is a light not lighting, then it is just a bad LED light. Best bet is leave it alone. Or, you could buy a new switch if the LED is _inside_ the switch. If the LED is on the control panel, then do yourself and big favor and don't mess with it.

it could be that the water sensor is not Working properly telling the programmer that there's water in or out of the machine unplug the machine take the back off and locate a small 5mm pipe leading upwards take it off and blow gently into it you should hear a click and one when you let the air out if so the place you took the pipe from is blocked not allowing the sensor to work correctly use a pipe(smokers) cleaner or metal rod to clear refit the pipe and rear panel run machine eric

Door lock faulty probably,,,,try closing door,,switching on and lightly thumping door near handle

1) tight the connector wires very well and clean with spray contact, of course unplugged the machine
2)resolder all point from the board for colder joint
3) Try again.
4) If the problem persist the problem is the board defective.
5) Call some service tech.
God bless you

Hi Richard from retired Englishman in SW France,

There is likely to be a problem with either the lid/door solenoid/lock or the 'lid/door closed' sensor becoming apparent with the extra movement of washing, requiring a service engineer's attention I suggest. Sorry ;-0(
If this has assisted and
/or clarified the situation for you please consider a 4 thumbs up on our rating.
Thanks and good luck!

try unplugging- let sit for an hour- and plug back in

Hoover (Nextra series) washing machines

The 'Start' & 'Pause' LED's will flash together to indicate the error code. You have to count the flashes within each 15 second period to get that error code. The start and the pause LED's will flash together at 1Hz (i.e 1 flash per second) within that 15 second time frame, then will continue and show again within another 15secs and so on.

1 Flash = Interlock fault
2 Flashes = Fill time-out
3 flashes = Drain time-out
4 flashes = Overfill fault presure pipe blocked
5 flashes = NTC error
6 flashes = faulty control board
7 flashes = Motor jammed
8 flashes = Tacho fault
9 flashes = Motor triac on module board
10 flashes = Prog Selector or wiring fault

Suggestion: 1 Press and hold down 'spin' & 'dry' buttons to unlock controls. 2 Have u overloaded the machine with clothes? Reduce load. 3 Try 'spin' only after putting the clothes. Then put off machine & continue with main cycle. Three suggestions here........ What is the clothes capacity of the machine; try to limit within capacity. Try the "spin only" function aft putting the clothes. Then put the machine off & continue with the main cycle.
