    Hotpoint Aquarius Washing machine
    WML760G 54707 811180061

    The machine had been in storage. Now, the selection panel is unresponsive, the selector wheel recognises movement and shows (On the RHS) the relevent phases of what the program selected is going to do. However, none of the buttons work, they make a nice clicking sound, but fail to operate. The power (On/Off) button, the option buttons and the Start/Pause do nothing.

    Even stranger, moving the spin speed selection knob actually turned all the LED’s off, and now they will not come on at all.

    The top board didnt have any visible defects and the connection terminal was fine. Bent the pins for better contact etc…

    My question is whether the fault is on the top board or the module PCB located in the bottom right hand corner?

    Has anyone experienced anything similar in the past?

    Thanks.

    If its been in storage then one unusual fault i would look for is damage from rodent abuse

    Check for signs of insulation stripped from wires and the obvious signs of mouse visits :poo:
