Zanussi FX1365 interlock clicking

[paulalig]

😆 Hi All,
The fuse blew on this machine and on replacement of the fuse the door interlock is clicking on and off but failing to lock the door. Is it worth buying a new interlock or is there likely to be another fault to cause this ❓ 💡 I am worried that the Electronics are faulty or similar.
Thank you

bump: Nobody ever had this? – I don’t want to buy an interlock and then find that the board is US. BTW anybody know what the solenoid operated ratchet in the interlock is for – got me foxed 😳

its so the door unlockas as soon as the programs finished, so theres no wait

could be either mate, tough call really, ive had both do it, but lock normally cures it

Thanks Helo – I did wonder if the device was to pull the snib back for that purpose but thought, no, no-one would build in that sort of complication or cost for no good reason. Maybe it stops impatient people breaking door catch handles/buttons?
BTW I’ve just found out that there was a flash behind the facia when the machine failed – which doesn’t sound good :rolls:

lock could well have blown the pcb then

not gonna be cheap
