How can I fix my Beko WMA765W?

The machine has been faulty from the start. Often at the end of a cycle you can't open the door and have to turn it off for a few mins before the open door button lights up. Sometimes the buttons on the front stick as you are selecting them and this appears to be related.
Lately this has happened at the end of each wash.
Today when you try to hit the start button CL comes up in the panel and it won't start. Not sure what this stands for (can't find it in the manual) and not sure if it is related to the other fault.
Anyone else had this problem and any ideas (don't want to pay loads for an engineer).

Try reset.
Turn the power off , hold start and pause together , turn dial to 90. turn the power back on , keeping hold of start and pause , wait 5 seconds. take your hand off start and pause all the lights will be flashing. put your hand back on start and pause turn dial to spin wait another five seconds , let go of start and pause job done!!

CL IS THE CHILD LOCK AND WOULD EXPLAIN WHY THE DOOR CAN'T BE OPENED. IT SHOULD BE IN YOUR MANUAL WHICH 2 BUTTONS TO PRESS TO ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE.I HAVE A WMA665W AND THAT USES THE QUICK WASH + ANTI-CREASE BUTTONS.

The engineer has just called back - the child lock was on - you would think the manual would have mentioned it!!

I definately won't be buying one of those machines again

Thanks for the reply. I wish I could but still under guarantee.
The engineer has come out doesn't recognise the error code and had no parts for it so couldn't fix it. It will be next week now....guess my daughter is going into disposable nappies for a while.....

Best thing to do is get rid of it. I have had nothing but problems with my beko since the day I bought it. It is not even 2 years old and for the last week it refuses to spin and lights start to flash. I have had enough and I'm going to scrap this piece of junk and buy a proper washing machine, preferably a zanussi or similar. I will never touch Beko as a brand again. They are worse than indesh*t and that's saying something.
