Miele W980 Washing Machine

[WhiteVanMan1]

The machine is completely dead with no display or signs of life at all. I have a supply to the on/off switch/PCB. From the on/off switch/PCB, there are two sets of tracks that look to be switched. One pair of leads from these tracks goes to the PCB mounted in the door base. The other I think, goes to the facia PCB. I am getting 240 through to one track, and a neutral supply to the other three. Also the door switch is supplied from the on/off PCB. I suspect I am losing the second supply inside the on/off switch, but am not sure if that is the way it works. I am convinced that the problem is either in the on/off PCB, or in the door switch. However, even with a faulty door switch, there should be some sign of life I think. Any ideas anyone please? Cheers. Steve.

Have had bad solder dry joints on the on/off p.c.b cause the problem described. Check edge connections also, there should be a circuit diagram in the machine to help you trace supply.

Thanks Seamy, have done all that. Conclusion is that the PCB must be faulty on the power supply side. Cheers. Steve.
