Problem for Zanussi FLE1416W Front Load Washer

Allows selection of program, but will not start wash




By jamesdunbar on Apr 21, 2007

" "
A screw (from a pocket) got into drum, I had to remove & split drum to retrieve. Put all back together.

Machine now allows program selection, but when pressing 'start' button it does nothing. Door is locked during program selection which is not normal as it usually locks when wash program commences

I only removed wire harness to motor & heater so not much to put back(or get wrong). (all keyed)

*I've checked all wire connections across whole machine. nothing loose etc.
*water level pressure switch hoses are clear of gunk.
* double checked, triple checked

Any ideas please help

- I did get the machine working in the end...

When I had it apart I jet washed the drum, to get rid of that nasty scum that always collects. I must have got the motor a little wet/damp. After pulling my hair out, it just started to work intermittently. So I worked the machine hard to warm up the motor to dry it out. After that it worked fine!
