Thanks for the reply.
Would the power supply be easy to replace, and are spares readily available on an old machine?
Anyone got any idea what the issue might be? Otherwise, not sure if it’s worth getting fixed being 10 years old or to replace it with a new one. I have a party at the weekend, so need a working oven for that.
Thanks
I will buy the part and give it a go, if I’m unable to prise the old panel off I will have to sand the rust down and repaint it.
Thanks
Thanks for the reply.
I thought it might be better to replace it with this part https://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/8076072-detergent-drawer-cover but have no idea how difficult it would be to install. I think using enamel would be tricky to colour match.
Thanks.
It gets a bit confusing when there are so many models out there. I will keep an eye on this post for a few days in case of any recommendations before committing.
Thanks for all the advice. Think I have got to the point where it would be better to put the cash towards a new machine, as it’s 8 years old now and I cannot locate the manual, model or serial number.
In regards to getting a replacement machine, are there any standout brands/models to look out for? I was thinking of going for a Miele, but not sure if it’s necessary to spend more if it does the same as a cheaper alternative.

Yes, the programme runs but hangs with one minute left and the water remains cold. Also, it doesn’t seem to be going through the cycle stages and is much quieter than normal, just a low rumble.
I started a new program, and yes the water did pump out into the bucket, so I put the hose back into the connection on the sink and ran another cycle. I listened and water was definitely being pumped out and going down the drain. The problem was that the cycle didn’t seem to progress at all, just chugging with cold water sitting in the bottom and coming out of the spray arms. I left it to finish the cycle but it was in the same state as when it started, but seemed to be stuck with one minute left and not draining. I’m not sure if anything can be done with the machine now, but if there is anything else I could try, please let me know.
Cheers
Thanks for the reply.
I found the hose and it does connect to the sink, I removed it and a small amount of water poured into the bucket. I then put a shallow amount of water into the machine, turned it on and it made the usual sounds, but no water came out of the hose. Perhaps it takes a while for it to start pumping out, or perhaps I’m not doing it correctly? Is there anything else I could try before giving up on it?
Sorry for the confusion. The dishwasher stopped draining at the end of the washing cycle, so I bailed out the water in the bottom and checked the impeller and valve. I then ran the machine for a second time to test it and no water pumped into it, but it sounded like the pump was making a noise.
Thanks for the advice.
Unfortunately after removing all visible screws on the back of the machine the panel seems completely immovable. It looks like it’s connected to the top and front, which I think would require dismantling. Before giving up and buying a new one, I thought I would post a few images that perhaps you could look at to see if there was an easier way to find the offending fuse.

I managed to get the cover off the microwave, but couldn’t locate the fuse. I just wondered if you had any ideas where to look for it? The power cord is at the bottom of the machine, so I would assume it wouldn’t be far from there. I did try to find a diagram or service manual but couldn’t find anything on Google. Also, video guides on YouTube all seem to be non-integrated machines.
Thanks
