I've got a Zanussi 1100 washing machine. The program lights all appear as per normal and the door locks etc but it just sits there doing nothing??

THIS IS NORMALLY A DOOR INTERLOCK PROBLEM.ALL THE POWER FOR THE MACHINE GOES THROUGH THIS DELAY LOCK. OVER TIME THEY BURN OUT. REPLACEMENT IS EASY BY REMOVING THE PLASTIC RETAINER AROUND THE DOOR SEAL,PULLING THE SEAL AWAY FROM THE FRONT PANEL,UNDOING THE DOOR LOCK SCREWS AND PULLING THE LOCK OUT FROM BEHIND THE SEAL.

Managed to resolve the problem. Just in case anyone is having a similar problem take out the tray in which you put the powder in. Wash and clean this and re-enter it into the machine. This apparantly contains a sensor, if this gets blocked in any way the machine will not run.
