Re: ariston L64x aus DW
Unfortunately as you are not exactly round the corner 😉 your Australian model number does not match our UK model identification software.
One possibility if you are using 3 in 1, 4 in 1 or even 5 in 1 tablets is that the machine has overflowed into the base. With the machine unplugged, place a few towels on the floor and tilt the machine to one side. If water does run out then allow it to dry and try again. If the fault comes back within one or two cycles then you may have an internal leak.
It is better to use separate detergent, salt and rinse aid.
I will move your post to the Oz forum, you may get some answers from nearer home. 😉
