Indesit BWD71453

Thanks Andy. Pipe pliers did the job with more brute force I'd expect to use on transit bolts! 👍

Can you get some pipe pliers or mawl grips on them with the bolt removed? Thinking one part of the grippers on the outside and one inside the hole. Then lever down or up.

Ok replacement Hotpoint washing machine has arrived. Has large transit bolts. These were very tight. Bolts come out but I believe the rubber stopper and a plastic insert needs to come out too. But even with the bolt still partway in they will not budge. Any suggestions please? Thanks T

Thanks Andy. we'll continue with delivery of the new one. Cheers

Hi. You don't normally get F1 and F2 errors that fix themselves. They usually refer to a motor or pcb fault. They could be caused by an intermittent fault, or dry joint or connection problem. Or only when it's loaded up with washington when things heat up. In which case they may come back.

Hi,

Views please!…we ordered a new machine due to be delivered tomorrow. Wife ran a spin programme on the Indesit to make sure all water was out of the machine. This completed with no errors! Just running a couple more test washes to see if the fault returns.

Is it possible the F01 and F02 faults could have cleared themselves? Or been aberrations on the 2 cycles they appeared? Need to make a quick decision whether to cancel the order for the replacement!

thanks

Thanks for that Andy
