    I went to this machine thinking probably capacitor,no such luck. Spent an hour and removed drum,hard wired the motor and it started.It’s only 2 years old and uses a relay board clipped to the top of the cabinet,so i ordered and fitted a new one,still no luck. I’m considering a timer 421307857541 but it’s hard to test these things without wiring diagrams.The serial number is 1249977535 which Qualtex say is a late timer.Apparently when it failed it stopped mid-cycle and hasn’t worked since.This is a new one on me,has anyone had a similar problem?

    Cheers iadom.The manual was useful and the wiring diagram showed me what circuits to check.It turned out to be switch A1 to A2 in the timer which I shorted out to test the machine. New timer now fitted and all good.
    Thanks a bunch
