I keep getting the fault code f-02 on my indesit we16 washing machine. what is the problem and how can it be fixed?
For what it is worth my WE16 often stops with an F-02 display within 3 minutes of starting, but only in summer months. Powering off and restarting usually cures it, and it will then go on to run several loads without problem. I keep the machine in my cellar boiler room, and attribute the problem to high humidity when the boiler is not running. Changing the PCB does not cure the problem, nor does protecting it against humidity (eg poly bad and silica gel). I conclude that moisture getting somewhere unexpected (tacho perhaps?) can cause this error.
Motor rotational speed is not satisfying tacho. Could be motor brushes worn (quite easy to check from underneath machine WITH POWER OFF, using crosshead screwdriver, 15mm minimun length), motor or drum bearings seizing, motor windings going down, faulty tacho or speed contoller circuitboard.
According to info on a similar site to this, it means motor jammed/tacho faulty or detatched

I have just come back and discovered the washing cycle aborted and the screen displaying F-02 error. THe door was not locked and we took out the load: which was soaking. The machine is now going through in a spin cycle with noting in it.
F-02 is an eror could but what is the error?
Ok so I have the same problem but how do I fix the jammed motor or faulty tacho
