The On/Off switch will no longer stay pressed in (On) so need to replace the switch but how easy is it to do? I looked under the worktop at the rear of the switch assembly and you can't appear to get a screwdriver at it, as the drum is very close, any suggestions?
on/off buttons on these models dont stay in. the power to machine is held by the relay very common fault. easy test hold the on/off button in and keep pressed in if machine starts turning and stops as soon as you release then its the relay pcb
