Indesit HOTPOINT HVL200UK Service Information page 12

F01: Motor Triac short circuit
Check continuity of motor (field coil pins 3-5, split field pins 3-4 and armature pins 1-2).
Check efficiency of module connector block J9, motor terminal block, and wiring between motor
and edge connector J9.
If all above are correct change module or eeprom as required.
For motor resistance readings see machine specifications page.
F02: Motor jammed or tacho short or open circuit
Check motor is not seized and check edge connector J9 on module.
Check Tacho continuity = 177 ohms from motor block.
Remove edge connector J9 on module check wiring and contacts at positions 1 and 2 on
connector J9.
If all above are correct change module, eeprom or motor as required.
F03: Heater thermistor open or short circuit, heater relay stuck
Check edge connector J8 has secure connections on module.
Check thermistor and wiring.
Remove edge connector J8 from module check wiring and contacts at positions 11 and 12 on
connector J8.
Remove plug from the thermistor. The resistance at room temperature (20°C) is approximately
20K ohms - for other temperatures see chart on previous page.
If all above are correct change module or eeprom as required.
F04: Pressure switch stuck on empty
Machine continually fills until it reaches overfill safety level (half way up door glass).
Drain pump is then started by overflow contacts in pressure switch.
Check efficiency of edge connector J3 on module.
Check efficiency of pressure switch connection.
Check pressure chamber / tube is not blocked with sludge.
Check wiring between pressure switch and edge connector J3 on module.
If all above OK replace pressure switch, module or eeprom as required.
F05: Machine will not empty or pressure switch stuck in full position
Check pump is not jammed or faulty (165 ohms approximately).
Check the pressure chamber/tube is not blocked with sludge.
Check efficiency on edge connector J9 on module and wiring to pump.
Replace module, pressure switch or eeprom as required if all above are OK.
F07: Heater relay stuck or element open circuit
This fault is only signalled when pressure switch is in empty position.
Check the efficiency of edge connector J3 on module.
Check wiring to heater and continuity of element (30 ohms approximately).
Check the efficiency of pressure switch connections and correct operation of pressure switch,
and the pressure chamber is not blocked with sludge.
Remove edge connector J3 and check wiring and contacts at positions 2, 3 and 4 on J3.
If all above OK replace pressure switch, module or eeprom as required.
