I have a hoover Vision H D 8142 washing machine it seems to wash but when finished (or may be not) the timer saver & 1200 spin lights flash and you can't open the door.if you switchit to drain it does so then the door can be opened any idea's its doing my head in ... thanks for your help .
There is a known problem with these washers whereby a small electrical current 'leak' from the heater element causes the machine to think it still has water in it.
Disconnect the wires on the heater (tape them up or otherwise make safe) then run a cycle to verify that part as the problem.

I've just had exactly the same problem with the same model. Unlikely as it may sound, it's the heating element. Mine has just been replaced and everything is now working perfectly.
SOURCE: hi i was wondering if you help.my hoover hd vision
my hover washer dryer 1200 spin will not spin water comes into the drum and will not spin
SOURCE: hoover vision HD 1400 AAA,
Check if the inner drum is spinning without noise when you turn it on manually.If the same noise is heard then it can be drum center bearing,that is out of alignment/.The other possibility can be the timer ,it must be getting short causing the noise. Check out.keep updated. Thanks.

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
I would gently suggest as a first step that you clean the drain motor/pump lint tray/filter. So many 'faults' are caused by blocked filters and many machines will not even go to spin or release the door lock if there is any water still left inside.
Here are my complete and generic guidance notes for checking both the drain motor filter and the drain motor ;-0)
If you are unsure where the filter is, it is often behind the front lower (kick) panel (or in some machines at the rear in an awkward position!). These panels are either held on by (plasic) screws or will just pull off. Most filters are held in by a round cover/knob. Sometimes the filter will not come out with the cover and you will have to persuade it to come out to play.
REMOVE POWER AND ENSURE YOU HAVE A WATER RECEPTACLE/RAGS TO SOAK UP THE WATER WHICH IS BOUND TO POUR OUT.
It's surprising what people have found in theirs! It is always worthwhile checking it on a regular basis.
Now- whilst the filter is removed it is normally possible to see the drain motor and ensure it is not jammed by a foreign object such as a needle or a toothpick. It should be able to be turned by hand/finger- the power IS OFF!
At this point it is also possible to test if the motor works. No clothes or water in the machine, select a spin cycle and put the power back on. You should be able to see the motor turning at some point, possibly straight away. Using something suitable like a glove see if it is easy to briefly slow the motor down. If it is easy then the motor is malfunctioning.
If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!
