door locking light flashes, therefor the cycle won't start.
I thought the problem may be with the door locking mechanism, so fitted another one (with your instructions, thank you) but the light still flashes. Originally the door wouldn't open after a washing cycle. I did wait, tried a different setting, but still wouldn't open. I did eventually open with a lot of tugging etc. Now I have the reverse problem and it won't lock, but the door does shut and open. Do I need new brushes?

In that case depending on model check if it has brushes and are they worn out. If the brushes are OK it could be a module fault and you will need an Engineer as these have to be programmed. If this is the case contact Repaircare for a fixed price quote.
- I fitted a new door lock thismorning. The door not opening after a cycle was the original problem, but managed to get door open. Then the next wash the cycle wouldnt start, as door lock was flashing. So fitted a new one thismorning, but still the door locking light is flashing. Sorry, I didn't make myself very clear in original post.

The original fault suggests it may have been brushes but you may have damaged the door lock and that may now need replacing as well.
