Common problem on these machine's, you need a new door handle which comes as a full assembley with spring and all attached.

open the door, using star screw driver remove top and bottom screws along with two near the catch.

the doo wil split enough to remove old handle and fit new 1.

Hotpoint washing machine door is closing but won't start any cycle. Just flashes 'door'

The main control can't sense your door lock assembly and 'thinks' your door is open... Look up the door lock with your model number

Flashing pre-wash approx 1 hour into wash cycle instead of moving onto rinse and wash. Whats causing this? This is happening on the WMA50.

Hi! If the pre-wash light flashes it means you are not getting enough water in the machine, check the pressure chamber, pressure switch, fill hoses and valves. For a workshop manual on the WMA50 which includes fault finding, visit www.selfix-uk.co.uk

Door lock

Switch off. Try some WD40 on the machine lock (not on door) and open & close door many times, to ease out the lock.
