New washing machine does not start because door light does not light up?

I have a new washing machine. I started the machine yesterday and the machine was operating normal for the 1st wash. I started the machine after 8 hours however, the machine does not operate as the main light is on but the door light is not on after closing the machine door. Please let us know how to solve this problem as there is no authorize dealer in Pakistan. i am electrical engineer and your guidance may solve this problem. Thanks.
