I have had to take my washing to my Mums house for 2 months now....I am GUTTED I didn't find this website before now. I have a super silent Hot point WF860 which kept coming up "test"...after reading comments, I held down "start" and "on/off" and it's now on a wash quite happy...(without any clothes to get rid of the "stale water smell!") Thank you so much!!!!

for a hotpoint wt960 use the on/off & start/cancel AND the spin button on the LHS of the display. for a couple of secs (about 5) D-off comes up on the display and the machine works perfect again!!! thank heavens....
