Diplomat Dishwasher ADP 8242

Re: Diplomat Dishwasher ADP 8242

Presumably the flood protection system is cutting-in the drain pump. This will be caused by a water level switch failure, a blockage in the pipework or a computer problem.

Being a SMEG-built machine, the programme LEDs should come up with an error code.

There should be 5 LEDs for the wash programmes. If a fault is displayed, a combination of the four left hand lights should flash, with the right hand one steady. If they do not conform to that pattern, you may need to have a read of THIS. Corruption issues are all too common on these machines.

Sounds like it needs reset as the test program has been selected in error, to correct it…

With the door open, turn the appliance on and, within three seconds, push 4 times on the program selection button – The test program has been selected if the SOAK and STRONG pilot lamps are flashing.

If, after applying the reset procedure, the above indication is not shown on the display, switch the appliance off and commence the reset procedure again, from the beginning.

Once the two outer LED’s are illuminated push on the program selection button once to select the version “without flow meter” and check that the pilot lamp of the SOAK indicator is off, as indicated below.

To complete the procedure, do not close the door, simply switch the appliance off. After a short delay, 10 to 15 seconds, switch the appliance back on and test on a SOAK program.

If you don’t understand that I’d advise that you call an engineer in that knows the machines.
