Hoover Wmh 147 Df - Programme Selector Fault

[Luke190480]

Hi

I am having issues with my washing machine when trying to select a wash type using the programme selector. When turning the selector to the desired wash type you don't get the selected wash, sometimes it the one before or the one after etc etc.

Does anyone have any ideas, if so is this a fix I can attempt myself?

Any help appreciated.

It depends on what system is used for selecting. If it's a control knob with a potentiometer type switch behind you might be able to take the knob off and spray some switch cleaner stuff into it in case it has a bit of dirt or poor contact inside. If it's a digital thing then maybe not. If you can work out how to get the knob off and clean and make sure everything looks ok it may be worth trying.

Thanks, any ideas how you remove the selector knob?

Knobs usually just push fit on but if not control panel may need removing.
