Re: Hotpoint FDL 570 lights up but doesn’t start

So I pulled off the front panel and the first thing I saw was the connector to the door switch which is all blackened and melted!

Of course this doesn’t constitute a repair and I would not recommend anyone do this, but I temporarily joined the wires together and tested it – the machine now starts the program fine so I have unplugged it and will await a new door catch which I have ordered online (tenner delivered).

Cheers, hope this helps someone!
