but there are also more pressing matters... the suspension is twisted, as this photo under the lid shows...

A couple more shots Meant to add to the above post that we have tried the obvious of changing the fuse in the plug, but that didn't help, and is about as far as my electrical skills go!

So that's where we are now... Until we can get power to the machine there isn't much point in sorting any of the other issues, so for the time being at least it may just have to sit in our outhouse. For £4.99 you can't really go wrong though can you! Matt | ||

IIRC the machine powers door open or closed, I can't remeber if these had two dashes when the door was open or just remained at 00 or whatever programme was selected. | ||

hotpoint 95622
Suspension twisted, as Andy has suggested you will need to inspect the chassis for the cracks, I have come across several machine with this problem and it can be resolved by welding some plates to reinforce the chassis, the dampers may also require replacement due to excessive ware caused by being out of alignment.
Power, if the door switch is not making due to the glass missing or catch ( the wiring diagram shows the switch must be operated for the power to work ) or has the power board got wet when the door boot ripped? This is the machine I was going to go for but I could not organize a collection it’s a nice machine I’m glad it’s in safe hands.

I chucked out a complete set of electronics for one of those last October. You probably didn't wish to know that though! | ||

Lovely machine... I might be getting my friends one in future, hopefully your case is just human error. The machine does not turn on unless the door is closed. Could be a faulty interlock? James | ||

Thanks guys! I had wondered if perhaps the machine wouldn't power up with the door catch broken, will order a new one and see how things go! Once we get the machine to power up, I'll worry about the suspension and any other issues that may (probably will) arise... Matt | ||
