Hotpoint NSWM743 error F06

[dunston]

This washing machine valve C0011033 has cracked, water everywhere.
Replaced the valve but now the door lock C00254755 clicks 3 or 4 times – locks the door and will not start. Cannot open the door. Displayed F06 error.
The motor is damp and has a slight earth fault. I disconnected the motor, same problem. The machine is in a very cold utility room. I’m leaving it to dry out hoping the motor is OK.
Anyone had his fault damage the PCB?
I’ve also got another Hotpoint w/m -simpler model- it will do a couple of washes then the door locks clicking a number of times and displays F06 error. Every time I go to it, it works correctly. This washing machine is in a cold garage.
Can an earth fault cause the door lock to click a number of times and lock the door and not start a program?

F06 is a door lock error

the door lock closes but the machine does not know

and yes dampness may be a problem

fault list as

Check for water leaks that may affect connectors J004 (collector)
or J11 (three-phase) causing the relative contacts to short;
– Check the door lock terminal board (possible problems due to
aggression caused by manufacturing chemical residues that
may cause short circuits);
– Check J004/door lock wiring;
– Replace door lock;
– Replace PCB.
