AWG349/3 completely dead..BUT.. door locks??? please advise

[dna]

Hi i am having problems with this appliance… the door locks ok and there is sufficient voltage to it but the machine will not start its programmes!! it will not drain, spin or fill with water, i have replaced a pcb down the bottom and the timer. there is one more pcb left down the bottom but obviously do not want to keep fitting parts for the sake of it!! can any body please advise if they have experienced this problem before? Manythanks!!

Have you looked at the carbons? I’ve had some weird faults caused by worn out brushes on these. Also if the pump is jammed or dead, the machine will appear not to function for a minute or more while the drain pump would normally be working. Worth a look!! 😉
