Please help my WF 540 hot point is currently flashing 6 lights out of 11 flashing ones are: wash enhance reduced creases rinse hold mini load final spin on/off but the no extra rise, dr lock prewash, wash, rinse and spin dnt flash. last week it stopped flashing and i was able 2 use the machine but know it wont stop flashing. Many thanks

try a different store.

Heating eliment or PCB, is this when doing a prewash? or a normal wash excluding pre wash?
if you can manualy pump out and manualy rinse and spin, my guess is heating eliment is broke £20-£30

check pump/filter/outlet hose for blockages. if ok, check pressure switch (disc shaped item at top of machine with 4? wires and a tube) by blowing into it gently - should hear clicks, then blow into tube to pressure chamber - should be clear.

Most models have a timer relay that times out when a cycle is over. It may be located behaind the front panel - It's worth a shot

i'm having same problem people have said empty filtter but i have done that and the water is running out but still flashing
so sorry wish i could help.

You might have to take the pump off and clean out the debris in the line theres probably lint, change and other things in the line. Take the lines off and run a piece of wire through the lines to make sure their clear.

Hi.
The sequence of flashing lights is in fact indicating an error condition on your m/c.
It indicates that the m/c has failed to drain, possibly because the pump filter is blocked.
Your m/c is fitted with a filter system for the pump,
The filter may have become blocked, see care and maintenance in your handbook, in your handbook for details on how to check and clean the filter.
Also make sure the door is shut properly.
If after you have checked all these points, and it still does not work properly, then I suggest you have someone to look at the m/c, or replace the pump if it does not appear to be working.
Hope this helps.
Please leave feedback.
thanks.

button selection : To select an option press the button and you will see a light come on above the button. Press again to cancel and the light will go out. You cannot alter the options once the machine is running. Note : remember to cancel buttons after use!

As you look at the machine
Left hand button... Rinse Hold.. use this option to Help reduce creasing of delicate or synthetic fabrics by holding clothes in the final rinse water. The rinse hold light will flash to indicate that the programme is holding final rinse water. Complete the final spin by pressing the Rinse Hold button when light is flashing.
This is not available with Wool or Spin only programmes.

Middle Button.... Energy Save... use this option to save money and time on lightly soiled loads. This is not available with the Quick Wash, Rinse and Spin, or Spin Only programmes.

Right Hand Button .... Super Rinse... use this option for Large Wash loads and items for young children or people with sensitive skin. This option increases the water level for the first two rinses. This is not available with Cold Wash, Rinse and Spin or Spin Only programmes.

Hope it helps.

The lights are set off by the balance sensors.And if your balance sensors are  stopping    it from spinning than you first have to make sure the washer is level.You  could have bad Shocks and a bad electronic control board,.
