How can I fix my Indesit WA155?

Our Indesit WA155 washing machine has a constant cold water stram and constant pump, so water is going in and is pumpded staright back out again. The programmer is in constant rapid click mode and will not stop going round. The pump is working and is not blocked (it was. but is clear now). The only odd thing we have found is there does not seem to be any power going to the pressure switch. All pipes are clear. There are no valves (other than those in the pump). Any ideas what has gone wrong and how to fix it ?

Had a similar problem with our WA155. Switch kept clicking round. Followed the instructions provided - problem fixed. Thanks

i have been experiencing the same probs graham. my cousin, who has his own repair service told me to do the following, and its crucial timing
1. switch washing machine off and wait for door to click
2. turn dial to stop at the end of the cotton programme and switch on. the light will flash quickly - switch off IMMEDIATELY it does this.
3. do the same on the synthetics programme.
4. do the same on the delicates programme.
this reprogrammes the computer in the washing machine.
5. then run on a 90 degree wash. it should then work. mine does. good luck
