Bugtao Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 My Hotpoint washer drier WDAL 8640 P door would not open and handle also broke. I replaced the handle and the interlock, but now it does not lock. The machine seems to know that the door is shut, but after a few seconds delay where I presume it is checking if the door has locked, the lock light starts flashing and a beeping alarm sounds. The door is not locking. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugtao Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 There seems to be no power getting to the interlock. I have checked with the connector to the interlock disconnected and there is no power across any of the 3 pins before or after starting a wash program. The machine starts beeping as soon as the start button is pushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Whitegoodshelp (Andy) Posted June 30, 2019 Root Admin Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 The power should come from the main PCB so normally you’d need the check continuity between all door lock connectors and the PCB. It’s possible the PCB is faulty but I wouldn’t recommend replacing it. They are very expensive and there’s no guarantee with them. You could try sending it to QER repairs if not prepared to give up but you’ve tried the normal diy friendly things. Need a repair or spare parts?
