Re: zanussi zwf 10020 w door light on
Just wondering if you checked the capillary tube connected to the pressure switch. Overtime it can rub on metal work and form a pin hole in the rubber. If this does not operate in the manner it was intended it can cause the odd symptoms you are experiencing.
Remove the tube and blow in it to pressurise it.
If that checks out, connect the tube to the pressure switch and check that the diaphragm acts on the switch. You need a multimeter to bell out the switch connections.
If you don’t understand that then call out a qualified repair engineer.Isolating the appliance from the electricity mains socket by removing the plug from the socket will prevent almost certain death. You have been warned.

i take it its the tube that runs from under the tub up to a blue round switch under the top cover rear right hand side 8mm diameter with 2 pieces of sponge around it for protection , when i blew into it i could feel and hear water gurgling at the other end , i forgot my multimeter so i just connected it back up , i dont have an electrical schematic do you know which wires bridge out the switch for operation ? cheers kuango
