My machine seems to start a cycle of washing for about 30secs before stopping/pausing and releasing the door lock - I have tried pressing start again but to no avail - same happens if I turn machine off and start again - help!!
The problem with this is the Dryer heating element is down to earth, disconnect the four leads to the element, and try starting the machine, if this works , you can use the machine as a washer only.
