    Re: How do I replace the On/Off – Start Button on my Hotpoin

    Back again.

    I was wondering, from your knowledge, what would you expect to pay to get this fixed?

    I spoke to a couple of people yesterday, all said it’ll take about a week to get sorted and it’ll cost £10 per 15mins! and the call out fee of £50.

    Many thanks in advance

    I’m learning as I’m going on.
    I’ve done all of that then. I just need to replace the micro switch.
    Would you have any other advice on how to replace the micro switch?
    Thanks
    🙂

    Thanks for that.
    I have the top off and the control panel off.
    The start switch isn’t connecting to anything. Not like the on off switch, where there is a micro switch. It seems the micro switch has come away for the start button.
    Do I need a professional to replace the micro switch? Can I order one and try it myself? Not sure how to split the board from the facia though 😕

    Thanks for that. It’s a WF560.
    Do you know how to take the top panel off?
    I’ve located the 2 screws at the back and that released the back half of the top panel but the front is fixed solid. I’ve also removed the two screws from the draw and it still doesn’t budge!
    I’m trying to diagnose myself so as to keep cost down. I was made redundant a few mths ago and I don’t have any cash to spare for call out charges etc 🙁
    Thanks again for your help 🙂

    Hello
    I don’t have the model number to hand. It’s an Aquarius model. They’re all pretty much the same.
    I know what’s wrong with it and how it happened, I just need to replace the button/switch and was wondering how to remove the old one.
    Thanks
    Tanya
