If your Defy DAW 365 front loader washing machine is not starting and the prewash indicating light and door light are staying on, there could be a few potential causes for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
Check the door: Ensure that the door of the washing machine is securely closed and latched. If the door is not closed properly, the washing machine will not start.
Check the water supply: Make sure that the water supply to the washing machine is turned on and that there is adequate water pressure. The washing machine will not start if there is no water supply or insufficient water pressure.
Check the filter: Check the filter located at the bottom of the machine for any clogs or blockages. A clogged filter can prevent the washing machine from starting.
Check the power supply: Make sure that the washing machine is properly connected to a power source and that the outlet is functioning. You can try plugging another appliance into the same outlet to confirm that it is working.
Restart the machine: Try unplugging the washing machine from the power source for a few minutes, then plug it back in and try starting it again.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be a problem with the control board or another internal component of the washing machine. In this case, it may be necessary to contact a professional technician for repair or replacement.
Have you checked the door lock switch? If that fails, the control board will light up but wont let you start the machine as it thinks the door is still open.

Hi, check the following trouble spots below. you will find the issue in one or, all the areas stated.
1. No power to the washer Make sure there's power getting to the washer. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse. Check the wall socket for power. Sometimes the power cord disconnects at the washer, if this is the case, the wiring must be repaired or replaced.
2. Lid switch/door switch The washing machine may not function if the lid switch or door switch is defective. The switch is usually located near the door. Replace if found defective.
**If you are getting power to the washer and, step 1 and 2 check out ok, replace the timer control and start switch as well.(You can test the continuity or, resistance level of the Lid switch with a multimeter(ohm).
Ok try this, open the door and then hit these buttons in the following combination. HI TEMP - DRY - HI TEMP - DRY...then close door and press cancel...then wait for the pump to shut down. you should be able to run a cycle after this...If this fails to fix the problem give me the make and model # of the dishwasher, this can normally be found just inside the door.
Check the water supplies at the back, if the valve is opening, and the water is getting into the machine, it can be a faulty water level switch, or membrane sensor, depending on the model.
A faulty or clogged inlet valve can also close few seconds from opening the valve, usually becausu of a faulty solenoid.
If valve and water level switch are ok, then this is a faulty control.
