    Re: Zanussi ZTE 285 – won’t turn on

    Zanussi sent me the service manual.
    I was happy to discover the following section:

    11 NO ACCESS TO DIAGNOSTICS PROGRAMME
    11.1 No LEDs on the display board light

    It contains a nice workflow with clear steps to check.
    That will keep me busy for quite a while.

    Thank you for your time and help!
    You can close this topic (for now ;))

    It’s probably easy when you have the service manual, but I would see no other way than to start breaking off plastic to get to the parts you describe.

    And I’m still not convinced that it is related to the door switch. I know that’s an issue with a lot of dryers, but I don’t think it applies to mine.

    Something in the electronics / on the motherboard probably fried and that part will most likely be impossible to reach as well.

    How do I do that :)?

    There are two screws that hold the door switch in place, but its inside the machine, I can’t reach it.

    I’ve checked the door lock switch and I don’t see any issues with it. I hear the click sound, as I am used to, when I close the door.

    What can I check next?

    I think this dryer would still turn on (LED lights + display) if the door is open, in that case it wouldn’t allow you to start.

    I’ll have a look at the door switch just in case.

    Any other options or things I can check?

    Unfortunately the dryer does nothing: no LED lights and the display is off. Just as if it is unplugged.

    (Normally when you select one of the programs a few LEDs go on and the display indicates the duration of the program. You close the door and hit the start button.)

    Is there perhaps somekind of service manual or diehard repair manual for this dryer?

    Kwatt thank you for your reply.

    Wouldn’t it be logical that I’d get some kind of error message on the display or a LED blink signal if it was one of those issues? It seems so weird that it does absolutely nothing.

    Do you have any tips on how I can determine which part is at fault?
