Hi Everyone.
I have a whirlpool AWM1400 that stopped mid cycle, before it started to do its 1st rinse.
I have had a general poke about,
There is nothing stuck in the pump.
The belt is still intact.
I managed to set it onto a drain & it drained no problem.
After it had drained, I looked underneath, all looks OK
I then tried a spin, this worked. It finished a slow & then fast spin no problem.
I removed the washing, and tried a rinse. nothing.
Now I checked the pressure switch.
That seems OK clicks when you blow down the tube into the switch & its clear back into the drum.
When I set it to rinse it does not fill, the drum dont move.
The only thing it will do is drain.
I dont know if the problem is with the door sensor.
It does lock the door in place when its set to wash.
but you can drain with the door open.
There are 3 wires going to the door lock / sensor.
Can I connect 2 of them together to bypass the door closed sensor part, to check that its this bit thats faulty.
Sorry for the long post, I tried to give you all the info.
Many Thanks
Cookiez
