Indesit washing machine problems
Indesit washing machine is leaking
The component parts that need to be checked here include the fill and drain hoses and the plumbing connections. It’s possible that the leak can come from the detergent dispenser caused by excessive pressure if your appliance isn’t standing level.
Indesit washing machine won’t spin
If the load in your washing machine is unbalanced a built-in feature will prevent the spinning process. This is to avoid excessive vibration and prolong the life of your appliance. The spinning cycle will also refuse to start if the water hasn’t drained completely which could result from a kinked or blocked drain hose or drain pump.
Indesit washing machine won’t empty
This issue could be due to a plumbing problem relating to connections to the sink or standpipe. Blockages can occur in the drain hose, and a defective drain pump can also be the culprit. If the crease care or rinse hold functions have been selected this will also cause the water in the final rinse to be held.
Indesit washing machine won’t start
If your appliance doesn’t seem to have an electrical supply this could be due to a faulty power switch, socket or defective wiring. If you’re using an extension lead the problem may lie there. If the door isn’t closed securely this will also affect the staring ability as this is a safety feature to prevent leaking during operation.
