If your Hotpoint washing machine is not starting after you replaced the electric door switch, there could be a few different issues causing the problem. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check the power supply and make sure that the washing machine is properly plugged in and receiving power.
2. Check the fuse or circuit breaker to make sure that the washing machine is not tripping any electrical circuits.
3. Make sure that the door switch is properly installed and fully seated in the door latch assembly. If the door switch is not properly installed, the machine may not start.
4. Check the wiring and make sure that there are no loose or damaged connections.

Hi goto the above page and you should find a video that should help you.
Please remember to rate me

You need to remove the wire clamp that holds the door seal on to the front of the cabinet, then pull seal off.
This will give you access to the door hinge assy, then you can replace the door complete.
Please rate my solution.
Thankyou.

Hi,
Never reach inside the washing machine with it connected to the mains. The door interlock is always live.
There are several reasons why a Hotpoint door could be jammed shut.
•A broken door catch or door frame where the door catch screws in (they are rubbish on many Hotpoints - always breaking) you can sometimes get the door open if you push the door firmly in as you open it
•If there is water still inside the washing machine, then the door wont open either on these Hotpoint washing machines (not on some others though) If this is the case, when you try to open the door the ****** won't try to move down at all. You can open the door usually if you drain the machine. (only applicable with door interlocks that have a rubber pressure hose attached to them)
•A faulty door interlock
•The pressure chamber can be blocked on some earlier Hotpoint washing machines which gives the same effect as having water in the machine. Basically the washer "thinks" there is water in when there isn't. This would require the washing machine being stripped down to remove and clean the pressure chamber bottle. This cause is only applicable to washing machines where a small rubber hose is connected to the door interlock. This hose allows the door mechanism to be locked and unlocked by air pressure activated by water rising inside the pressure chamber bottle attached at the other end on the tub. Gunge can block the very small aperture where the pressure hose fits to the pressure chamber bottle.
