Malfunction of the heating element

- De-energize AGR Indesite.
- Remove the top panel.
- Unscrew the bracket and remove the door cuff.
- Disconnect the wires and open the heating chamber.
- Loosen the screws holding the heater.
- Take out the TEN and check it with a multimeter in case of an open circuit.
- In the event of a malfunction, install a new heater in reverse order.
Reason in the safety thermostat
The clothes remain wet when the thermostat is triggered. You may have overloaded the washer with laundry, as a result, the electric heater overheated and protection worked. You can solve the problem by dividing the clothes into several parts and drying them alternately.
A faulty TEN fan also causes it to overheat, causing an error code. How to troubleshoot? Replace the fan.
You can clear the error F14 by checking the air duct for clogging, if other methods failed. What will have to do: disassemble the drying and remove the blockage, then check the washing machine Indesit for efficiency.
Bad water draining
The drain filter could also be clogged. Water is not completely drained, as a result we get wet laundry from the Indesit machine. Check the filter, clean if necessary. Do not forget about the drain hose, which also does not hurt to rinse.
