Error code F14 in the washing machine Indesit

 We gathered today to arrange a grandiose cleaning with washing all the laundry that was collected, plunged it into the drum of an indispensable assistant in the home and chose a mode (program), however, she refused to work and displayed a malfunction with the acronym F14 on her screen. However, there may be such an option when it performs the established mode, but as soon as the drying start time approaches, F14 is immediately displayed.

Note! This problem is only displayed on Indesit devices that have an auxiliary drying function provided by the manufacturer.

If the manufacturer does not provide for a display in the machine, then fault F14 is displayed using LED illumination, depending on its model:

• Constantly lit LED lights indicating function defer washing, super wash and quick wash.

Problem Value

Failure with the F14 combination in the unit indicates that there is no contact on the segment bounded by the electric heating element (TEN) and the electronic module responsible for controlling the washing machine (the heating element is not working, it is covered with scale and needs to be replaced, damage to the element tubes, or there is no contact, etc.). There are rare cases with such a breakdown, when it is possible to fix it without calling the repairman.

What you need to do in order to fix the breakdown without professional help

• A banal software failure occurred (in the control module). In the event that the F14 problem is displayed for the first time, then it is not difficult to fix it. To do this, perform a forced reboot. Unplug the cord. Leave the unit without power for up to 10 minutes. Then reconnect the device, then your machine will safely begin to adequately perform its function.
• The presence of breaks in the contact circuit of the heating element for drying. To eliminate a break in the circuit, it is necessary to check all contact connections in the area between the heating element and, accordingly, the control module board. Such a breakdown could result from improper installation or transportation of the device, due to which the contacts of the electric heating element could move away. To do this, you need to disconnect and reconnect.

Have you tried to troubleshoot and performed all the recommended manipulations? But the washing machine did not work? Does fault F14 continue to be displayed? Then you need to seek professional help. Call the washing machine repair technician.
