In my lists Indesit's 'F02' stands for 'motor jammed/ tacho problem, check leads' meaning that it is 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!

Hello there and thank you for choosing fixya Depending upon the type of washing machine, you may notice an
"F21" or "F02" error code. An "F21" or "F02" error code is indicative of
a slow draining cycle, normally caused by a clogged or kinked drain
hose. If an "F21" or "F02" error code appears, check the drain hose on
the back of your washer to ensure that it is not clogged or bent. Once
the drain hose has been unblocked, the error code should disappear and
the machine drain properly. However, if you have a high efficiency
washing machine and the error code continues to appear, make sure you
are using the correct detergent; because high efficiency machines use
much less water than traditional washing machines, they require the use
of a low sudsing detergent. Traditional detergents may produce too many
suds, which can block the machine's drain hose and lead to slower
draining cycles. Please feel free to post me a comment back if you need help with the dissasembly of this ok? best regards Mike
Make sure the door is positively latched in.,some times a weak or broken door spring or striker is the cause of the problem, if you are satisfied these are o/k, then it is probably a control board problem, and you will probably have to call an engineer.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.
The F02 error code indicates a “long drain” If after 8 minutes of pump time the washer is not draining, you will get this error code. I would recommend checking the pump filter, drain hose, pressure switch & pressure hose. Be sure you are using HE (high efficiency) laundry soap.
Indesit washing machine error code 3 (F03)
On certain Indesit washing machines, if the on off light is flashing 3 times, with a slight pause, followed by flashing a further 3 times, or if it is didplaying F03 you have an error code that is explained as follows - NTC fault - check Thermistor and module connections.
The NTC is the thermistor, which is a modern-day thermostat. It’s inserted into a tube in the heating element and is filled with heat sensitive crystals that change their electrical resistance according to their temperature. By knowing what electrical resistance the crystals have at given temperatures they can tell the water temperature.
With this fault the NTC is either faulty, or there’s a dodgy connection to or from it or there’s a connection problem where it connects to the main PCB.
It’s not something you can easily fault find yourself unfortunately, apart from if there was an obvious broken wire.
