Flashing lights! Hotpoint WD420P Rinse Hold & On/Off lights flash?

On/Off Button & RinseHold Lights continually flash. The machine then stops doing anything. Can anyone help

hotpoint - flashing rinse hold, gonna try the plug disconection

another dissatisfied customer for a £500 machine...

WENDY, May 2010
Yes he came and replaced a very worn out H/BOX TO DRUM rubber seal (strange for a new machine), and a burnt out SPIRAL HEATING ELEMENT. Apparently, the dryier was leaking water through the seal, then it started to overheat causing all the flashing lights and eventually burning out the heating element, which began to trip my circuit breakers!!! As my product is under 1 year old, the engineere and parts were free.
SEAL - C00195263
ELEMENT - C00080765

Its now tripping the circuit breakers while on drying cycle and then flashing/blinking lights like mad...... engineer coming wednesday _______ WATCH THIS SPACE

Pat Ottey, October 2007
So am not alone then... my wd420p lights (On/Off, Drying High Heat, Reduce Creases, Time Saver) keep flashing or blinking in the middle of washing. I always have to unplug from the socket which is totally unacceptable for a 5 month old appliance. Please help because the hotpoint service engineers threaten to charge the customer!

Engineer came out early due to cancellation, He replaced a relay board (Complete interchangeable unit). Code 215009866.01

It came in an indesit box, Ref C00145013

You may be able to by over internet.
