Hotpoint error codes and help

Hotpoint washing machines show F-codes from F01 to F18. Models without a display show the code as a pattern of flashing lights, which Hotpoint’s UK service site can decode.

Shared code families

Hotpoint and Indesit publish the same UK F-code table. Each brand page cites its own brand’s service page. Hotpoint shares these codes with Indesit.

Finding your model number

Many Hotpoint codes depend on the model. The model and serial number are printed on the appliance’s rating label. Your manual shows exactly where it is. Have both ready before you contact Hotpoint or an engineer.
