Ignis Washer Suddenly Doesn't Work... As Silent As The Grave
Hello and thanks in advance to anyone that will help.
I have an IGNIS washer that suddenly doesn't work anymore.
I select a program, push ON but nothing happens, washer doesn't lock the door nor start...
I can't find the model number http://i.imgur.com/f3ZBLYr.jpg http://i.imgur.com/P9YUA1s.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LqbDpxY.jpg http://i.imgur.com/YvFtjUB.jpg
I checked 1) socket with a lamp, working 2) different programs, nothing works
It was working perfectly before, no prior warning.
I don't know if it is related but... Recently I plugged a lamp that had a faulty cable that caused the house "main switch for plugs" (I don't know the technical name) to go off. However all other appliances are working fine. As far as I know that switch works like a fuse...

- Advised to try the washing machine in a different socket
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Model number looks like AWP011
If you have plugged a lamp in the same socket and the lamp works then it implies that the socket is okay. As a double check you could also try plugging the washing machine into a different socket.
If the machine is dead, follow this article to check all the basics - washing machine won't start
