Hi I have a Beko wme7227w washing machine. When I first switch it on and put to a programme, the time stays at zero time. The door lock flashes on and then goes off. If I press the pause button the timer goes to the usual time for the wash but it doesn't start. Help! Thanks Dave

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Beko WME7227W will not start, door lock light flashes

The problem
On a Beko WME7227W washing machine, selecting a programme leaves the display at zero time. The door lock indicator flashes briefly and then goes out. Pressing pause changes the timer to the normal programme duration, but the machine still does not start.
Likely cause
The strongest diagnosis in the discussion is a faulty door interlock, or the door not engaging the interlock properly. The reply also notes that other faults are possible, so this was not confirmed.
What fixed it
Check whether the door is closing and activating the interlock correctly. The accepted advice points mainly to the door interlock area, but no completed repair was documented. Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.
Checks to try
  • Observed display staying at zero when a programme is selected
  • Door lock light flashes briefly and then goes out
  • Pressing pause makes the timer show the normal wash time, but the cycle still does not start
Parts or tools mentioned
  • door interlock

Safety: Do not bypass the door interlock. Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Could be a faulty door interlock or the door isn't activating the interlock properly but it could be other things too
