Why run the test mode in the washer? This may be necessary in the event of a malfunction. If the equipment does not start the diagnostic mode on its own, then it is necessary to enable it using special commands. The Indesit washing machine, a test for which is easy to perform at home, is no exception. Now we will tell and show everything.
To enter the diagnostic mode, set the program selector to position 1 and press the power key. Then move to position 2 and turn off. Turn again by 1 and turn it on, then by 3 - turn it off. Again 1 and start, then turn on the drain and install a service test.
The pause between switching is no more than 3 seconds.
After starting, an error code is displayed. For washers without a display, it appears by flashing indicators on the panel. In this case, the code indicates an error F3. To find out the meaning, look in the instructions or on the Internet.
How does diagnostics work? Here is a good example. After starting the program, the filling valve (KEN1) is activated.
Then the second valve is triggered, after which they both begin to function.
Now the pressure switch (level sensor) is transferred to the "full" mode. Next, the heating element is turned on and the engine rotates, which rotates the drum with a belt.
As soon as the water in the tank heats up, the heater switches off. After the set mode ends, the drain pump starts.
After draining the water from the SMA tank, the spin starts at maximum speed. In parallel, the pump pumps out the remaining fluid. After completion, the pump is not energized and the lock is disabled (panel lock).
