zanussi fj1254w

[suedehead1]

i went to this machine today the pump was blocked when i cleared the blockage i cant get the machine to start. its the one with loads of lights but no display.

when i push in the on off button it lights up, then when i select the program the relevant lights come on but when i push the start button it beeps as if it is going to start but the light keeps flashing.
checked motor, pump, heater but cannot get it to do anything.
even the button to skip programs works but the machine wont start.

any help gratefully received

It`ll have damaged the module , QER or EMW will repair and test it for around £30 +vat.

Have you tried a new interlock? (You didn’t mention that in your list of suspects). 😉

HTH,

Have you checked the pump is not open circuit? Or worse, short circuit and blown the module? Wouldnt think a blocked pump on its own would damage the module.

Just had a thought…. the user interface PCB (facia PCB board) on these type of machines quite often have communication problems due to loose or oxidised contacts on the board or its edge connector plug.
Remove the facia, unplug the edge connector, unscrew and gently prise the PCB out of its frame. Clean the contacts with emery paper and refit the PCB to the facia. Pinch the edge connector (plug) with pliers to tighten it and refit. Reinstall the facia and it should fire up! 😉

Hope that helps!!!
