Error codes are model dependent, so the same brand may have more than one listed.
| Code | Brand | What it means | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| F14 | Ariston | Means the machine cannot heat the water to the required temperature during a cycle. It is usually caused by a faulty heating element, damaged wiring, or a main control board fault. | High |
| F19 | Ariston | Means the machine is taking too long to heat up, or on washer dryer models the dryer fan is not operating correctly. It is usually caused by a heating fault, a control board fault, or wiring damage. | High |
| F7 | Ariston | Means the machine fails to heat water, leading to incomplete cycles or a complete halt in operation. It is usually caused by a heating element that is not activating or a heater relay stuck on the main circuit board. | High |
| F8 | Ariston | Means a heating system fault where the machine cannot heat. It is usually caused by a heater relay that cannot be activated, a failed heating element, or a connection issue between the sensor and the control board. | High |
| F13 | Hotpoint | Means a dryer sensor fault on washer-dryer models, where the dryer NTC thermistor is faulty, disconnected, or the unit has overheated. It is usually caused by the temperature sensor, wiring damage, or a fouled airflow system. | Medium |
| F14 | Hotpoint | Means a drying heater failure on washer-dryer models, where the machine cannot heat up during the drying cycle. It is usually caused by a faulty heating element, a tripped thermostat, or broken wiring. | Medium |

| F8 | Hotpoint | Means a heater circuit fault, where the machine may stop mid-cycle, show cold water, or fail to start. It is usually caused by a failed heating element, a wiring issue, or a stuck relay on the PCB. | High |
| F13 | Indesit | Means a dryer temperature sensing fault on washer-dryer models that stops the machine heating or monitoring the air during the drying cycle. It is usually caused by a faulty dryer NTC sensor, damaged wiring, or a malfunctioning heater. | High |
| F14 | Indesit | Means the dryer system is not heating on washer-dryers, with an open or short circuit detected. It is usually caused by a failed dryer heating element, thermostat, or related wiring. | High |
| F7 | Indesit | Means a heater relay fault, where the machine detects the heater is on when it should not be or the heating circuit has failed. It is usually caused by a stuck relay on the main PCB, a failed heater element, or faulty wiring. | High |
