Bush washing machine WMDF612w

Good morning. On many Bush washing machines, a combination of flashing option lights is used as a fault indication, but the exact meaning depends on the full model and the machine’s control system. Without the exact fault chart, the best approach is to narrow it down first.

1. Try a simple reset Turn the programme dial to Off, switch the machine off at the mains for 5-10 minutes, then power it back up and try a drain/spin cycle.

2. Check for water left in the drum If there is water inside, the machine may be stuck because it cannot drain. Listen for the drain pump when you select drain/spin.

3. Clean the pump filter Isolate the appliance from the mains first. Open the filter flap at the bottom front, put towels/tray down, and carefully remove and clean the pump filter. Check for coins, pins, lint or anything jamming the pump.

4. Check the drain hose Make sure it is not kinked, squashed or blocked, and that the standpipe/sink waste is clear.

5. Check the door lock If the door is not locking properly, some Bush machines will just flash lights and refuse to start. See whether the door clicks shut firmly.

6. Note the full light pattern Please post back the exact model number from the rating plate and confirm exactly which lights are flashing, whether the machine drains, and whether the door locks. That will help identify the likely fault.

If it still will not clear, it may need an engineer to test the pump, door interlock, wiring or control board. Any internal electrical checks should only be done with the appliance isolated from the mains, and a qualified engineer is recommended for mains-related repairs.
