3d printed front panel and box for the installation.
Connected the Hi-Link AC-DC Module to mains.
Tested without connecting motor wires and relays worked as expected.
Connected motor wires.
Sealed off cables and front panel with silicone to guard against moisture.

All was tested and the program worked as expected.

Machine washing and working again!

One problem with the 5110 is that it keeps getting darker and after some time unreadable. Tapping the screen clears it and it works normally. I have checked all the wire connections and they are fine. 

I suspect this is due to a dry joint on the 5110 board or faulty LCD.  
But that is a problem for another day! :-)
