Update: This topic was originally about the poor construction of some washing machine doors, which resulted in the door glass falling out and smashing on a customer’s tiled floor. However, it has since attracted comments from people who have experienced the door glass in their washing machine shattering during use – and allegedly sometimes even when not in use – which is even more concerning. Therefore I’ve widened the subject to include incidences where a washing machine door has exploded too.

Washing bras in a washing machine can cause problems. In fact problems caused by washing bras are surprisingly common. Many bras should be hand washed only, but most people still put them in the washing machine.
Indesit error code F07 or light flashing 7 times

It seems that a common error code on Indesit washing machines is error code 7. This code can show itself as F 007 or with washing machines that have a rotating control dial the door lock light can flash in cycles of 7 flashes.
This error code usually means, “heater relay stuck”.
