Just to close this thread.
This turned out to be the door latch!
After fitting each interlock in turn,and latching manually, both interlocks failed to release untill given a slight movement of the latching plate with a terminal scredriver!
This led me to the conclusion that the latch must be held in tne correct position to latch,and unlatch purely by the position of the door catch, so after taking the door apart and cleaning the latch spring and locating bar, refitting,and spraying a bit of WD40, both the old and new interlocks now function perfectly..
I always thought that the door latches on most machines inserted fully through the interlock plate and then the interlock locked in position, but on this machine only the rounded end of the door pin pushes the latching plate over, just enough for it to be in the correct position, it never actully goes all the way through to the straigh part of the door pin…..
