Inherited this when buying a narrow boat. Previous owner says it was working but it is dead. There is power at the socket, checked the plug fuse, checked the double-pole on-off switch, replaced the door interlock switch. Can’t see anything disconnected or charred inside. What should I try next? Replacing it would be a nightmare.

Have you got continuity from your live & neutral at the plug, to either side of your mains suppressor..?
This is attached directly at the end of the mains cable… If not there’s your problem…

Re: Servis M9503W washer-dryer dead
Do you have any power light illuminated at all on the machine?
If not I’d check continuity down to the interlock. If that’s ok then you probably have a fault in the main power board. Or maybe a loose connection there…. Time to call a qualified engineer then!Sorry I cannot go in to further detail with this..

Re: Servis M9503W washer-dryer dead
Is the interlock switch a straightforward changeover switch or is it more complicated than that? Trying to check the new one and getting myself confused.
Re: Servis M9503W washer-dryer dead
This machine had a common fault with resistor R1 on the board going open cct causing the machine to appear dead.
Re: Servis M9503W washer-dryer dead
I see now how the interlock switch works – live incoming to pin 3 neutral on pin 1 and the switch operates (if the door is closed) and you get live out of pin 2. I’m not getting neutral continuity to pin 1 though – where does this neutral feed come from? Presumably a sensor that says if there is still water in the machine?
