I found these error codes for the very old Servis Quarts washing machines -

F1 Water temperature circuit faulty

F2 Too long to fill

F3 Water not pumped out properly

F4 Motor fault

F5 Heater circuit fault

F7 Motor fault

Note, they may be different from modern Servis error codes and will be different to other washing machine manufacturer's codes. _____________

Thanks for posting these. That looks like a useful list for the older Servis Quartz 6000 range, and you’re quite right to point out that old Servis fault codes often do not match newer Servis models, and certainly won’t match other makes.

For anyone using this list, these are sensible first checks for each code:

1. F1 – Water temperature circuit faulty Check the wiring to the temperature sensor/thermostat, and the sensor itself. Poor connections are common on older machines.

2. F2 – Too long to fill Make sure the water tap is fully on, inlet hose isn’t kinked, and the inlet valve filter isn’t blocked. Low water pressure can also cause this.

3. F3 – Water not pumped out properly Check the pump filter, drain hose, and sink spigot for blockages. Also listen to see whether the drain pump is running.

4. F4 / F7 – Motor fault These usually point towards motor-related issues such as worn carbon brushes, wiring faults, tachometer problems, or the control board not driving the motor correctly.

5. F5 – Heater circuit fault Check the heating element, thermostat/sensor, associated wiring, and connections. On older machines, an insulation fault in the heater is also possible.

Always isolate the appliance from the mains before removing panels or inspecting internal parts. If live testing, control board diagnosis, or motor circuit checks are needed, it’s best left to a qualified appliance engineer.

Useful information for owners of these older Servis machines.

Safety first — read before actioning advice

  • Never work on a live appliance

    Always unplug it at the mains before going near it with any tools.

  • Never attempt gas work

    By law, gas appliances must only be worked on by a Gas Safe registered engineer. If your fault involves gas, stop and call a professional — do not attempt it yourself.

  • Watch for sharp edges

    Outer panels are smooth, but internal parts are full of sharp machined edges. Wear protective gloves and arm sleeves.

  • Water appliances can leak

    Turn off the water supply before disconnecting any hoses.

  • Know your limits

    If you're not confident testing or working inside the appliance, STOP and call a professional.

  • AI guidance, not gospel

    This is AI-generated guidance to help point you in the right direction, not guaranteed-correct instruction. It may be incomplete or wrong, so always use your own judgement and consult a qualified engineer for electrical, gas or water work.
