    Probably motor capacitor. 7uf rated IIRC. 😉

    I think you are more likely to get a measured and lucid response if you think about your post and read it before you hit ‘Submit’. If you do you will realise that what you have posted makes absolutely no sense at all.

    Use a few punctutation marks, give a little more information.

    Do you mean ‘Will not tumble no’ or ‘no buzzing noise’ or ‘buzzing noise from door lock’. 😕

    Do you really mean that it will not tumble, there is no buzzing noise and could it be a faulty door lock?

    PS Kill the CAPS LOCK please. 😉

    PPS. A faulty door lock should be very simple to test and eliminate and it would ‘buzz’ if the capacitor was faulty.

    Is the machine the later one with a door interlock or the earlier type with a probe operated microswitch at the top of the door?

    If it is the later interlock, it is not to difficult to remove the right hand ( from the front ) side panel to check it. I have had two or three of these fail.

    I’ve replaced a few of the new type interlocks & they do buzz if faulty, theres a little relay inside that acts as a hold on contact after the start button is pressed & provided that the door striker makes contact.

    The buzzing had nothing to do with motor start capacitor in my experience though.
