[QUOTE="NomDeBoom, post: 3808668, member: 50898"] Not an electrician either, & this may well not even apply to your situation- but I have 'fixed' several appliances ('newer' ones, with chips) by simply unplugging them & letting all that annoying computer crap 'reset' itself. It's always worth a try, & often solves the issue. Also; I have an older washing machine that was given to me, but it suddenly decided to give me a little electrical shock whenever I touched wet clothes or the water in the machine...kinda annoying. Turns out, the problem was with a 'safety' plug that was between the cord & the socket it was plugged into. After tossing the darned thing, & plugging the washer directly into the wall socket- it's worked fine ever since. Apparently, this is a common thing. [/QUOTE]
