Indesit - HELP!

[babyk87]

hi all..

I got given an indesit washing machine about 3 months ago and it has been working fine. I don't know what type of indesit it is, but it has two dials on the front one for temperature and one for programmes and program 8 is the half hour wash if this is any help.

We moved last weekend and machine worked fine all last week until this weekend. i used a different program to normal which wrked ok. then i put towels in (didnt overload) switched it on to program 4 at 40 degrees. it worked but towels came out soaking wet still and had soap on them still. i let them dry then put them in to wash again....this time the washer didnt do anything. the program dial turned as it should, it made all the right noises, but it didnt fill with water, the drum didnt turn at all but yet the sap in the drawer disappeared!!! very annoying.

Please help if u have any ideas as its my first ever washing machine and im getting really stressed, we arent in a position to buy a new one and cant afford to call a service man out unless it is really necessary!!!

Thanks in advance! Kirstyx

HI.
Firstly has the machine worked since you moved?
Does the machine empty the water out ok?
If the soap is gone from the drawer then it must have been taken into the machine when it filled.
If the answer to the above is yes. Turn the dial to a black dot and it will reset the timer. The red light will flash rapidly to show it has reset.
The light will then flash slowly to say it is ready to run a programme.
I would need more info to work with if you are still having problems. Cheers Eric.
