hi
i have had an ikea whirlpool dwh b1o for about 3 years. it has recently started to stop part way through a cycle with the start button flashing 4 times. i have already read some other very useful posts suggesting it may be related to draining. in my case it is draining ok so there doesnt appear to be a problem with the pump or a blockage. ive tried cleaning the black grid with boiling water also.i am not keen on taking anything to bits – i would appreciate advice whether i need to call out an engineer or whether it is something that i can attempt.

hi it sounds to me you could have a faulty presso stat, quite a common problem on whirlpool dishwashers
Re: ikea whirlpool dwh b10 4 flashes
Usually very simple…look in the sump at about the 3 o’clock position, you will see a grid which is probably clogged up. Clean it thoroughly with hot water and a toothbrush…don’t poke anything sharp through as there is a rubber diaphragm behind which you might puncture.
If it won’t clean up like that you will need to remove it completely (bayonets in from underneath) and carefully take it apart.
Power of at all times :zap:
