Stuck mid cycle- BEKO
Hello, my washer stopped mid cycle, i thought it had been put on pause, so i pressed pause again , but nothing happened.
I turned the machine off at the wall, after a minute or so the door unlocked, luckily there was no water spillage, but the clothes
were still very heavy with water, i left the machine turned off until the following day, i hoped it may reset it somehow. I switched
the washer on, and it returned back to the 'paused' looking state, and also was sounding like the cycle had been placed into
paused mode, i have tried it on different wash settings, also i have tried to carry out the reset/ diagnostic tool, but it is stuck,
also the lights on front panel are showing as they would do when washer is working as it should.
Any help or suggestions would be welcome please.

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
Beko washing machine stopped mid-cycle and remained in a paused state
- The problem
- The Beko washing machine stopped mid-cycle, left the laundry very wet, and after being powered off and left overnight it still returned to a paused-looking state. The front panel lights appeared normal and attempts to change programmes or use the reset/diagnostic function did not restore operation.
- Likely cause
- The strongest diagnosis suggested was a possible door interlock fault or a connection problem at the door interlock, causing the machine to think the door was not closed even though the lights still came on. This was presented as a possibility rather than a confirmed fault.
- What fixed it
- No confirmed repair was reported. The accepted advice was that the fault could have several causes, with the door interlock being the first suspect, and that the machine would likely need an engineer to trace the fault.
- Checks to try
- Machine powered off at the wall and left before retrying
- Observed that the door unlocked after power was removed
- Tried different wash settings
- Tried the reset/diagnostic function
- Observed that the front panel lights appeared normal
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

With a fault like this there are many possibilities but the first thing I would suspect is a possible door interlock problem. The washing machine will not work at all if the door isn't closed but usually the lights will still come on. So if the washing machine thinks the door is not closed because of a fault on the door interlock or a connection problem there it might just sit there with the lights on.
Unfortunately though, that's just a possibility. I don't think there's anything simple that can be checked as it is likely to need an engineer to trace the fault.
