Mend Indesit WE12 Washing Machine Error Code

How do I fix my Indesit WE12 Washing Machine?

Does anyone have the circuit diagram for an Indesit WE12 washing machine or have information that can help me trace a 'door' problem?

On program selection the timer display counts down as normal for a few minutes with nothing else happening (with regards to motor, pump, water intake) then displays 'door'. I tested the door lock mechanism and it iappears ok; neutral is getting from pins 3 to 2 on door closure. I have traced the neutral line from pin 2 of the door latch mechanism and it goes down to the drum heater element then branches off to the motor (and subsequently the pump) and also up to the water intake valves but I cannot detect where it is input to the control PCB. If this wire is not meant to reach the control PCB then how does the 'door' indicator get triggered?

I've had this machine for a few years and it has been used regularly, only giving me trouble (F04 codes etc) when something got trapped in the drain filter. Recently though I've had trouble with the selector switch producing random programs (traced to dodgy contacts on the rotary control switch) and I've been told that error code F-02 has been displayed (motor jammed or tachogenerator detached?) although I have not witnessed this. I don't want to throw the machine out - internally it looks like new - but I am not about to buy expensive parts on an old machine.

hi guys hope this may be usefull, was getting all sorts of odd faults with my machine enginneer came three times and plugged laptop in and found nothing, (same guy) second guy (fourth call out) went straight to back of the program selector switch and removed and cleaned plug. Instant fix says common problem on this model its just high resistence in multiplug,

hello

Just been reading your question I'm afraid i don't have the remedy.I am in the same boat with the same problem.I have the same machine which has worked fine for years until recently.Normally you would shut the door then hear the door lock then a key icon is displayed in the lcd ,followed by water being pumped then the drum rotates.What happens now is you shut the door you hear the door lock then nothing just silence,the cycle timer still counts down,there is no key icon displayed in the lcd indicating that the door isn't locked even though it is.
I wonder if there is a built in timer on the pcb so the machine will eventually time out and give you an unfixable fault!
