    My machine will not start its seeing the door open. I believe its the interlock which is coursing this fault. To bypass bypass the interlock do i connect the live and common together? Just to see if it is the interlock.

    Not the safest thing to do given how cheap a new door interlock is, we will not advise anyone to bypass a safety device.

    Given that your machine has fully electronic controls there is a very good chance that the doorlock has failed and done serious damage to the electronics.
