hello andy and all i have an indesit IWE91480(uk) washing machine 9kg load. at the start of this week i found it displaying F06 with all lights flashing. no time to do owt so left it til the weekend. door locked (red displaY on lcd) to cut things short, checked pump filter, used manual tab to open door, pump working ok and m/c empty. with door open red lock display disappears, unplugged for a while, powered up again no error display no door lock display (provided door open, if closed door lock displays) had suspected pressure s/w. decided to try running it on 15 min wash cycle(empty), it performed this ok, low level of water for wash part of cycle, up to the dished glass on door for rinse, so pressure s/w seems ok as it is distinguishing between levels (to add, set cycle then closed door this lit the door lock symbol, pressed go before it decided there was an error) i've just set it on the hottest wash empty but with powder, it seems to be functioning ok. just completed and all seemed to work ok but door did not unlock, had to do it manually. i first suspected the pressure s/w (still a possible i suppose) but now believe it to be the door s/w, be handy to know how i can check this, without pulling it all down. anyway hope this may have been of some help to someone, if anyone can say it's not the door s/w and why, i would like to hear it. otherwise guess i'm looking for a door switch. ian
