there goes tony again,every fault on washing machines is the main module,if the machine wont start up esp a hotpoint,its normaly the bi-metal door switch,its a common fault on hotpoints to remove,take the plug from the wall socket,open the door,remove the spring from around the door seal,take the door seal from the shell ,the lock is held in by two screws,put hand in hold the lock as you remove the screws,you can then remove the lock ,take note wherethe wires go,if its an older machine,newer models have a biased connecter plug can only go on one way ,hope this helps
