Our Candy DWI160 has suddenly started to leak. After reading the Basic Fault Finding guide I’m pretty sure it’s overfilling as it takes a while from starting to fill and wash before the leak starts. We’ve never put salt in it and I wondered if the pressure switch could be clogged? Indeed, where is the pressure switch and can it be replaced if it’s had it?
Ta very much,

Re: Candy DWI160 Overfilling
That’s an old “proper” Candy machine. Drag it out, tip it back to a good angle and look underneath. There is a black sump moulding, with a cover on the bottom retained by three screws. Undo them, pull the cover and clean the contents out – it will be full of muck of goo.
Power off, first………

Re: Candy DWI160 Overfilling
That was great advice, many thanks. It didn’t work first time but I then noticed two clear tubes leading off the sump, one to the inlet valve and one to the pressure switch I guess. I blew through them both and found the one to the pressure switch was blocked. After clearing that it went through a rinse cycle without leaking.
Now we just need to dirty lots of plates and we’ll try it properly.
Thanks again..
