Whirlpool AWO/D 5505 'dead'

gerdalt · 2012-10-01 09:50:41

Looking for help/suggestions for this problem with Whirlpool Washing Machine Machine is dead - no lights on anywhere. Checked socket - power there. Checked plug fuse - that's OK. Took off the lid - no obvious sign of burning or dead electrics. Checked voltage out of mains filter and it's OK. Is there a reset button hidden…

Machine is dead - no lights on anywhere.
Checked socket - power there.
Checked plug fuse - that's OK.
Took off the lid - no obvious sign of burning or dead electrics.
Checked voltage out of mains filter and it's OK.

Is there a reset button hidden somewhere?
Is there an on-board fuse?

What to do next?

Sounds like possible door interlock problem or power board, not something for a novice to play with, best of luck with it.

Expert man arrived this morning and agreed it's 'probably' the PCB.
He'll be back next week with a replacement PCB
