Hi all i am hoping you can help .Last week i purchased this dishwasher of the classifieds brought it home and was amazed how good the machine was .However this has been short lived.All of a sudden when i switch it on and set the program everything seems fine then i notice that the time that is remaining is flying by ie, one minute it say 55mins remaining then in a flash it will say 35 mins remaining on the clock when you open the dishwasher door the water is also cold any help would be great i have a horrible feeling it has had it .sorry if i have rambled on.
Hope you can throw some light on the fault as no fault comes up on the front lcd 🙁Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
Its an Indesit under then skin. :rolls:
You should be getting error codes, however, the heaters, main circulation pumps and control PCB’s are all very suspect on these machines, you may not have purchased the bargain you thought. 😉
Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
Thanks for getting back to me i thought that might be the case is hotpoint made by indesit or do they have similar problems many thanks for getting back to me
Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
The Hotpoint Company has been owned by Indesit for 8 or 9 years now.
Not the best machines on the market to say the least. 😥
Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
ok thanks for that the joke is i would never buy a indesit and i have been without even knowing it i have had hotpoint for many years no issues until now ok no more hotpoint for me in anything
is there any point in me getting someone out to look at it or am i wasting more money many thanksRe: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
You could try our Find an Engineer facility, you never know, it could be something simple like a loose wire, the heater is not that expensive but the motors and PCB’s start to add up a bit.
Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
Hi there just to let you know at this moment in time the dishwasher is working brilliantly,my husband kept restarting the program washes and when the timer kept galloping stopping it and restarting it again on a new wash then he pressed pause and after 30 seconds took it of pause ,he then put the washer of left it for about 1 hour.when he switched it back on it did the whole cycle without a hitch.The only thing i think it could be is that with my old washer i just used to open the door to put more stuff in during its wash cycle i have been doing this with this dishwasher without using the pause button i am wondering if this has caused the problem .i did have a look on the manual on line i am almost certain it did not say to put it on pause first i could be wrong .any which way if i dont open the door during washing it may never happen again ,here is hoping.
Once again thanks very much for all your help.Re: Hotpoint aquarius+ Dishwasher fdf784
In truth it is not a good idea to open the door mid cycle on any dishwasher, when it is really hot you can get a pressure build up that can lead to overfilling or leaking.
Have you got an instruction manual with the machine, it is possible to download one if you don’t.
