dmoggie Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi all this is my first post so please be gentle. My Zanussi washing machine tripped the MCB half way through a cycle. I manually drained water out and upon closer inspection discovered that a couple of wires down towards pump had worn through sleeve( poor build quality) . Resulting in earthing out on part of the metal casing. Ive re insulated wire and the washing machine works, but the door will not open ! Im guessing that the interlock has been damaged by the shorting out. Any way of removing the interlock without damage on this model ? Will a new interlock fix this issue ? Any help or experience would be appreciated ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
