    The machine was not working so changed module and it works fine BUT getting fault code saying sensor failure so the sensor is fitted to the module that I changed. Now does this mead that what I fitted was FAULTY or is something causing the machine to through up this fault. Your help in this will get this job completed and invoiced.

    Hi Bill,
    As written in the manual,

    TURBIDITY SENSOR
    Situated in the hose between the circulation motor and heater, it consists of a infrared transmitter and receiver and it has two functions within the dishwasher, identifying the soil level and presence of rinse aid. The analogue it produces is sent to the control module for processing.
    There is another sensor as follows,
    HIGH PRESSURE SENSOR
    Mounted on the sump adjacent to the filters, It consists of a microswitch connected to a diaphragm that is activated on contact with water. When the water pressure flowing through the filters in the dishwasher falls below the level required to wash efficiently (below 15 bar) the microswitch opens sending a signal to the control module this activates the filter cleaning procedure.
    Hope this locates your sensor, John
