Hi, i was wondering if anyone could help, came home to do some washing and i cannot get my machine to switch on, nothing happens, no lights, nothing, have checked the fuse and its fine, even replaced it to be sure, the socket i use for it is fine as i ran i lamp from it to check the socket was ok.

Could it be just a simple things as changing the on/off switch in the machine?

Remove the bottom panel at the back and see if your wiring is wrapped round the motor & chewed up like mine was. First i knew was that i couldnt get the red light on, turned the drum and there was no resistance so i looked to see if the belt had come off. It had and the machines wrecked. :( full of doom and gloom, me!

give the door a good PUSH around the 3 o clock position as the INTERLOCK may not have engaged no programme will start till the door is LOCKED
this is a common washer fault the switch may need changing
