    There is a gear in the drive unit that chews out internally and drops the drive pin onto the motor (which shorts and blows the motor).
    It is a nightmare job to get to the drive ass'ly. I suggest putting the machine out to pasture.
    Hope this helps (i used to cringe in fear when i used to get sent to one of these machines displaying this message)

    Indeed a very old model sir, I have solved the problem sir. I found out that The "Front door Open" message is also related to its drive motor board like you've said, I had to solder out those transistors and replace with a new one.. It is shorted because when i opened the drive assembly I found a screw shorting transistor's pins.

    And it is no doubt that getting into the drive assembly can be very stressful, you would go trough first to its main board with so many wires and pins. But I was used to it, because the problem of this machine is always about its drive gears.. hehehehe thank you all.. God bless
