    Please can any of you chaps help. I have a whirlpool adg6340 (8542 332 15720) Giving 4 flashes on the start button. I found a small blockage where the waste pipe joins the sink waste and cleared it, have checked all the waste pipe. If I fill dishwasher with water and reset it pumps out fine but then stops and still gives 4 flashes. I have checked to see if any water is inside the machine but it’s dry as a bone where the componants are underneath. Can any wise person give me some pointers please…..

    Sounds like the diaphram switch is blocked. this can be verified by removing the filters and looking in the sump. the switch is located on the right hand side and is usually black. When it is blocked there is normally white gunge in the switch. I have managed to free one by using a spray bottle, keep spraying until the gunge has been cleared.
    Hope this help
