What is Indesit Washing Machine Error Code F11?

Indesit Washing Machine Error Code F11

An Indesit washing machine F11 error code indicates a pump or drainage issue, meaning water isn’t being emptied, often due to a blocked filter, debris in the pump impeller or sump hose, or a faulty drain pump or control board. To fix it, first unplug the machine, then check and clean the pump filter and impeller, inspect the sump hose for blockages, and if problems persist, the pump or main control board might need professional attention.

Safety First

Unplug the washing machine from the mains power.

Drain Water

Place a shallow tray and towel in front, then unclip the kickplate and slowly open the drain hose to empty water into the tray.

Check the Filter

Unscrew the filter cap, remove it, and clear any fluff, coins, or debris.

Inspect the Impeller

With the filter out, use a long screwdriver or pliers to spin the pump impeller (a small plastic propeller) to ensure it moves freely and isn’t jammed by fabric.

Check the Sump Hose

Tilt the machine onto its side and check the large hose (sump hose) connecting the drum to the pump for blockages like small socks.

Test the Pump

If clear, the pump motor itself might be faulty. You can test its electrical resistance with a multimeter or listen for it trying to run.

Wiring and PCB

If the pump and hoses are fine, inspect wiring for damage or corrosion, as a faulty connection to the main control board (PCB) could be the cause.

If these steps don’t resolve the F11 error, the drain pump or the main control board likely needs replacement, and you should contact a professional.

AEG Washer Dryer Error Code E20

If your AEG washer dryer is showing the error code E20, then give this article a read to help you diagnose what is wrong. If your error persists,give our friendly team a call on 0800 888 6666 for a free appliance health check.

Error code E20 usually indicates a drainage problem, often caused by a clogged filter or drain hose. 

Locate the Filter

Find the small access door on the bottom right-hand corner of the machine. 


Drain Water

Place a shallow bowl or tray under the filter area to catch any water. You may need to use a separate drain hose or the small emergency drain tube to empty the machine first. 


Open the Filter

Turn the filter counter-clockwise to open it. You may need to unscrew it to remove it completely. 


Clear Blockages

Remove any lint, hair, or other debris from the filter and the pump housing. If you can see the pump impeller, try to rotate it with a pencil to ensure it moves freely. 


Check Drain Hose

Make sure drain hose is not kinked or bent such that water could be prevented from draining.


Inspect Hose for Clogs

Disconnect the hose form the sink drain and check it for blockages. You can also try running a wash cycle with the drain hose placed in a bucket to see if the water drains properly.


Verify Hose is at Correct Height

Ensure the drain hose is connected at the correct height according to your user manual. It should not be too low or too high and should not be inserted too far into the drain.


Run a Cycle to Test

  • After clearing the filter and hose, turn the machine back on.
  • Run a short drain or spin cycle to check if the error is resolved.
  • If the error persists, it may indicate a problem with the pump itself, and professional service may be required. C0ntact us about our Repair & Care options if your appliance is broken.

What is Hotpoint Washing Machine Error Code H20?

Electronic waste, or e-waste, is one of the fastest-growing waste streams in the world.  At Zest, we see tackling e-waste as a shared responsibility, one where manufacturers, service providers, and households all have a role to play.

washing machine

Hotpoint Washing Machine Error Code H20

Is your Hotpoint washing machine displaying the error code H20? Take a look at our article to help you diagnose what’s wrong, and potentially fix the issue. Give our friendly team a call on 0800 888 6666 for a free appliance health check.

What Does Error Code H20 Mean?

The Hotpoint H20 error code signals a water-related issue, meaning the machine isn’t getting enough water, is draining too slowly, or has a sensor fault, often due to closed taps, kinked hoses, blocked filters, or a faulty pressure switch, requiring you to check the water supply, hoses, filters, and pressure sensor.


Common Causes and Solutions

Water Supply

Ensure both hot and cold water taps are fully open and the supply hoses aren’t kinked or crushed.


Inlet Filters

Check the small filters where the hoses connect to the machine and the tap for blockages from limescale or debris.


Drainage

Clear the drain pump filter (usually at the bottom front) and check the drain hose for clogs or kinks.


Pressure Switch/Hose

A small black hose connected to the pressure switch can get a pinhole leak or become blocked, tricking the machine into thinking it’s full or empty; inspect and repair/replace it if damaged.


Door Latch

Make sure the door is securely closed and latched.


Loading

Overloading the machine can sometimes trigger this error.
