Beko wmb71543w lock?
Beko wmb71543w programme selects but won't start until 2 or 3 attempts of shutting the door. Seems like lock not selecting. Does this sound like the lock is faulty? Is there any way to check before I order a replacement? Thanks

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
Beko WMB71543W intermittent start likely linked to door lock
- The problem
- A Beko WMB71543W washing machine would select a programme but often would not start until the door was shut two or three times. The poster suspected the door lock was not engaging properly.
- Likely cause
- The strongest diagnosis in the discussion is a faulty door lock. A loose or broken door catch/latch was also suggested as an alternative cause, but the poster reported that it looked OK.
- What fixed it
- The accepted advice was that the fault was probably the door lock, provided the door catch/latch was not loose or broken. No definitive test procedure or confirmed replacement was given in the thread, so the exact repair was not confirmed.
- Checks to try
- Observed that the machine would only start after shutting the door several times
- Visual check of the door catch/latch, reported as looking OK
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Probably, but it can be caused if the door catch is loose or broken.

All looks OK, how can I check?
If the door latch on the door seems ok it’s most likely to be the door lock
