Program selected pressed start button, stays on for 30 seconds, start flashing, program does not start. Tested doorlock, Got ohm reading. Should I still re[place the doorlock. One of the last times the machine worked I was able to open the door while program was working. Should I first replace the doorlock

I will try and help with this problem with your Defy Maximaid 720 washing machine

I am not very familiar with this make as I think it is from Africa,​ but it looks like it could be one of the European made machines. I would just check the door lock properly. I have included a video below to assist you but if this does not work then it does look like you may have a problem with the circuit board
