The Moon series of washing machines from Indesit has combined innovative functions, and are simple and efficient. They’re designed to automatically regulate temperatures, wash intensity, and spin speed, guaranteeing perfect results every time.
Yet even the greatest innovation can be subject to flaws. Take a look at a range of Indesit Moon washing machine problems and troubleshooting here…
Indesit Moon washing machine problems
Your Indesit Moon washing machine may experience issues as shown below:
Indesit Moon washing machine won’t start
This is often an electrical issue with incoming power, a faulty power socket, a blown fuse, or a tripped switch. There may also be a problem with the door micro delay switch. If the door won’t fasten securely the appliance simply won’t start. For any electrical concerns, you need the assistance of a qualified engineer.
Indesit Moon leaking water
Reasons for this could be a blocked hose or a defective door seal. Beads of water and dripping leaks around the seals are common, but they can easily be replaced. The hose connection to the mains plumbing taps may have become insecure, and it’s also possible to have a leak from the detergent dispenser.
Problems with the water pump will result in leaks at the front of the appliance – this often needs the pump to be replaced. Using too much detergent will cause an excess of foamy water coming from the machine after a finished cycle.
Indesit Moon washing machine doesn’t drain
When this operation is inhibited it's typically due to an obstruction in the drain pump or filter. There may be a problem with the voltage on the drain pump in which case it will need repairing or replacing. The connection in the building drain wall may have become stuck, or the programme may have stopped due to the programme detecting a drain blockage.
Indesit Moon washing machine drum isn’t turning
This generally relates to the drive belt or the motor. Both of these components can be repaired or replaced by a service technician if they’re faulty.
