Hotpoint Ultima Tumble Dryer Fault Codes

These fault codes are written for washing machine repairers and not for the general public by Hotpoint and they assume a certain level of competence on the part of the user in diagnostic routines. We have added some notes to try to assist you in determining the nature of the fault you have but, you will still need to investigate each failure on its own merits. For more help and advice on fault finding on a washing machine please refer to our basic fault finding guide from this link before you begin.

On the lower modesl in this range there is no digital display so you will get a binary code usin gthe built in LEDs or neon lights that give indications and options. These can vary from model to model but will be in the pattern shown in the chart below.

This primarily relates to the Hotpoint tumble dryer model CTD40. This tumble dryer uses the same codes as CTD80 or CTD85 but does not have a digital display.

The codes are displayed by flashing the ON/OFF neon and a combination of the top four left hand neon’s and the Post Crease Care neon.

Each neon has a numerical value as shown in the chart above.

The bottom neon is not used for fault codes.

You add the value of the flashing neon’s and compare them to the fault codes for the CTD80 and CTD85 For example Neon’s second fourth from top are 4+1 = 5 this gives you fault code F05 and so on. From that you can determin ethe fault condition as shown below.

• We are not responsible for your safety, you are and by using this guide you accept that and accept that any damage that you may cause and work undertaken is entirely at your own risk.
• We will advise the common causes of the fault codes but we cannot guarantee that any parts or work recommended will resolve the issue. It is entirely your responsibility to diagnose your particular problem and resolve it.
