hotpoint wma 10 drain problem

[briershire]

ok now ive got a working pressure switch but when connected up i either get a constantly working pump and no spin or a spin and no pump kicking in ,depending which way round its wired
i think the washing machine may well be possesed!

Is it a correct replacement for that model? You cannot use a one made for a different model even though the manufacturer is the same. connections must go on the new replacement as the exact configuration as the old switch.

right after getting my brothers friend to look at my wma 10 who happens to be a washing machine repair man ( he could have told me sooner!) he has examined the machine and found everything that i had done to be fine and of help to him as it has cut out his time examining as to the cause of the problem , it has now been fixed and it turned out to be the programme circuit board which apparentely is rare in these machines ! it showed no sign of damage or scorching to any of its components and he only found out by connecting his test one.
i would like to thank you guys for your help and expertise and hopefully this thread will help someone in the future with a similar problem with their hotpoint washing machine
