    This is a Brandt built machine.

    There’s a resettable thermostat at the back of the sump (behind the lower spray arm). If the heater’s cut out then you’ll need to press the button on this.
    There’s also a chance that the sealed base has flooded and activated the anti-flood switch. The water will need to be drained from the base to release this switch.

    Power off please if you’re going in :zap:

    I have a Diplomat ADP 8221, and put washing up liquid in – loadsabubbles!!! It’s now running cold! Does this machine have a resettable thermostat? It also flooded – could this be that the sealed base has flooded and activated the anti-flood switch? Anyone know if/how I can fix this, it doesn’t say in the instruction manual.

    Many thanks

    Yes it does. If the base had floodedit wouldn’t work at all so i think you’re on the right track 😉

    Power off before attempting the reset please :zap:
