    Hiya

    Replaced the heating element in the Hygena APL8212 and now not enough water is going into the machine to do a wash.

    The dishwasher ended up on it’s side when the element was put in and so was wondering if this could have something to do with the problem.

    Many thanks for the help!

    Oh ‘eck – this is the old Thomson/Brandt machine and it’s a complete swine to work on. Yes, tipping the machine on its side has probably run water into parts of the fill matrix and water level control system that shouldn’t have water in. All you can really do is methodically work your way round all the internal hoses, get them drained and try again. Worth also checking the air collection chamber at the back of the sump under the filter.

    Stay safe, power off.

    Thanks for the advice.

    All the internal hoses are ok, but I am having problems finding the air collection chamber.

    Could you please help with this?

    Also could there be any other explanations for the lack of water going into the machine. There is currently not enough water to cover the heating element.

    Many Thanks
