This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
Ariston AVXL 140 shows immediate fault with one light and the two upper lights flashing after being moved
- The problem
- After relocation, the Ariston AVXL 140 would not start at all. As soon as it was plugged in, a fault appeared immediately with one light flashing and the two upper lights flashing. The user reported no sound or attempt to run.
- Likely cause
- The exact fault was not confirmed. The strongest suggestions in the discussion were a transport-related issue after moving, such as a dislodged obstruction affecting draining, damage to wiring or connectors if the tub was not secured, a drain connection blanking cap not removed, or a water fill problem such as a faulty tap or kinked hose. A stuck pressure switch was suggested first but was then ruled out by the user.
- What fixed it
- Checks advised were to confirm the water supply, inspect connections, consider whether the drain setup at the new property was correct, and double-check motor plug connections. No definite repair was confirmed, and no reset or test procedure was provided. Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.
- Checks to try
- Water supply checked and confirmed OK by trying another machine
- Connections checked and reported as connected
- Suggested check of pressure switch hose for blockage/sticking
- Suggested check for pump or filter obstruction
- Suggested check that any blanking cap on the new drain hose connection had been removed
- Suggested check for kinked fill hose or faulty tap
- Suggested check of motor plug connections
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

If the washer was working OK before 4 things commonly cause a problem -
1: Some obstruction inside the drum is dislodged and gets stuck in the pump or filter (Won't empty water)
2: Something gets damaged in transit if the washer's tub wasn't help in place whilst transporting like a wire or connector broken off
3: The blanking cap on the new drain hose connection fitting needs removing (more details - Washing machine won’t drain after being moved)
4: The water tap at the new place is faulty and isn't actually letting water into the machine or a fill hose has become kinked (No water going into washing machine)

most common fault I've found with moving machines is a stuck pressure switch. When you tilt the machine to wheel it out, you often get lots of grime accumulate around the pressure switch outlet from the drum. Find the thin rubber/plastic hose that runs from the bottom of the drum up to the front panel somewhere. Remove the pipe from the switch behind the front panel ( a round device) and blow into the tube until you can freely force air into the drum area. reconnect the tube and try the machine again.
Thanks Edd ill try it tomorrow.....
It was not a stuck pressure switch,so the problem is still her.... Annyone no about the light fault code in the front.....MORE HELP PLEASE...
probably a silly question but you have tried the absolute obvious first, in that the water supply to the machine is turned on?
Oki this is wath i tried. Water suply is oki( tryed another maskine and oki. Checked all the conections on all sems oki and are conected.
And the maskine wont start at all . when i plug it in the power it come up with fault . on light is bliking and the two uper lights.
No sond og anything from it.... is there a resett button og a way to gett it to do a test program.... i think the light is a fault code , butt i cant find anything oh the web......
Yes it is likely to be an error code but I don't think this model is sold in the UK. I don't have any technical information for it. If the error comes up straight away and there's nothing wrong with the water supply (and presumably the drain system is OK if you tried another machine as you must have had to empty it?) then apart from double checking motor plug connections there's nothing else to advise to check, sorry.
