    hi, went to this today tripping out electrics in house.
    microswitch in door was damp, dried out and replaced microswitch,
    machine now working okay. door gasket looked okay, door closed, top spray arm seemed very loose but nothing broken or blocked.
    has anyone else had this ? how is water getting into the top of the door?
    any advice appreciated pete…

    I would double check the door seal, wipe the door and seal dry, and run the machine.Then switch off and open the door carefully a look for water around the door. Usually if water is getting past the seal there should be an increase of noise from the water in the tub, push the door and listen when it is washing for a change of sound. 😉

    Hi guys, i had this on a Indesit[ 😈 ] version of this m/c, ‘cept the door switch had burn’t out . Fitted new s/w then adjusted door latch as you could hear the water splashing in the m/c. Don’t make the adjustment too tight otherwise door could pop open mid-cycle 😡 .
    Hope it helps, cheers Chris.. 8)
