    Replaced door lock which has cured problem.

    Thanks for help.

    PS I noticed when removing original lock one screw was slightly loose so maybe just tightening up would have cured it, and something to look out for if anyone has similar problem.

Sounds like the door lock mechanism. if this cannot signal it has engaged, to the board, no other function will work (you don't want the washer going with the door open, trust me :) )

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. The start and pre-wash usually flash due to a clogged drain hose or the water pump. You’ll need to drain the water out of the base and also check to see if there's something stuck inside the pump or the drain hose connected to the pump (pump is usually located at the bottom and towards the back of the washing machine). If the drain line isn't clogged, you may have a problem with the water pump such as a frozen pulley or a broken impeller. If that's the case replace the water pump. Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks

Machine wont sart

Your door lock/latch is broken, this is a common issue with front loading washing machines and the only way to fix it is to replace the door switch.
