Indesit WEI 167 will start then wont start?

Indesit WEI 167 will run normally for a few weeks and then wont switch on at all. This is solved by first pressing pressing the main power switch then the machine start button and LED 1 then 2 then 3 and back to 2 and 3 then main switch then functions and machine runs ok. The only spurious light is the LED 2 which is "extra rinse " which lights up on its own. PCBs have been inspected and appear to have no blown components , door swictch has 8ohms and wiring checked for continuity.

George, 2 possibilities :
1 carbons on the motor are getting low (once worn out the machine will not take water or pump)
2 the power section of the main module is breaking down.
If we send you a module, you will still have the option of returning the module within 14 days for a refund (less our handling of £12) if it does not sort out the problem. Tony www.emwelec.co.uk tel 01159652118
