    Hi all

    When I press the start button, the door lock clicks a few times without locking then the machine bleeps and doesn’t start. Is it repairable?

    It’s been running flawlessly since new 5ish years ago.

    Thanks

    John

    I think so. The hook on the door looks ok and moves when I pull on the handle. It clicks into place when I close the door and doesn’t open unless I pull on the handle.

    The clicking sound is the same as if the door wasn’t closed.

    Is there a digital display on that machine?

    Does it display a fault code?

    There’s no display.

    It clicks a few times (4 I think) as if trying to lock the door, then bleeps. I think it’s four times. It was late and I’m at work.

    The thing I’d check when you get home, is that nothing is stopping the door closing properly. Beside that I’d check the door catch, handle and spring.

    Failing that, I’d move on to the interlock. But power off first if your doing that! :zap:

    Door seems ok. When I close it, it makes a satisfying click and won’t open unless I pull on the handle.

    How easy is it to access the interlock?

    Hmmmmmmm.

    I was thinking it just sounded like the door not closing/catching properly. Beyond that I’m not willing to stick me neck and say it’s the interlock that’s faulty. Though it is a possibility.

    Tis probably time to call an engineer, unless another forum member has any sugguestions.

    For example, if you called me out to look at that fault, I’d put the machine into it’s diagnosic program. Then if that came up with nothing I’d try fitting a new interlock, which any good appliance engineer would have as stock. The diagnosic info cannot be published on the internet because of copyright rules, sorry 😕
