I am now on my second lot of washing with the machine working fine but with the door interlock bypassed. Do I need to return this door interlock for a replacement ?
When I test it am I correct in thinking I should get continuity between neutral and live ?.
Got new door interlock for £18.99, came home tested it with meter and got same result as with old one :? Scratches head, was expecting to get continuity between N+L but no continuity. Went ahead and fitted the part anyway but with no joy :cry: So I bypass the new door interlock as before by...
