    Hi

    Been given a tabletop dishwasher for my incredibly small flat, and was informed it was hardly used, perfect condition.
    Unfortunately when it’s plumbed in to a spare water outlet it fills fully and empties fully 3 times, then beeps and flashes the 3in1 light (which apparently indicates an issue with the flow rate – or something else entirely)
    The blades don’t rotate, and the tab doesn’t get dispensed.
    The internal filter has nothing in it.

    I’ve had the cover off and watched it fill through the clear pipes internally, so I know it has water in it… just looking for a hint as to what I can try and do!

    Thanks guys.

    sometimes if a dishwasher has not been used for a while the main motor seal sticks.
    i am assuming in your case its trying to start the main pump motor and failing

    to free off you often have to get to the rear of the motor and a lot of them have a screw driver slot. if yours has dont just wrench it but gently but firmly move it back and forth

    Hi Dave

    Many thanks, I’ll give that a shot this weekend. I have the service manual with the location of each component so I’ll just start pulling things apart until I can access it.

    Will let you know if I have any luck!
