ParticipantHi Dave,
Thanks but unable to initiate test cycle because appliance won’t switch off using on/off button.
As soon as power is connected to the machine the error code is activated and I can’t reset.
Cheers,

Moderatorhave you checked the float switch is not stuck or contaminated with water. Dont forget dishwasher uses salt for water sofner so if switch has got coated it may be able to conduct enough current to fool machine its flooded

ParticipantHi Dave,
Thanks for the response.
Originally I was called out to this job because it was “dead”
Whilst I had the machine on its side I removed the base and disconnected the float switch whilst I accessed the terminal block to check the mains in supply.
The machine then suddenly kicked into life and obviously because the float switch was not in circuit flood protection was activated.
I reconnected the float switch and put the machine back to the upright position but no matter what I do cannot clear the error code.
No water contamination and the switch is function correctly.
Cheers.

Moderatorright see where you are coming from now
have you checked the wiring loom from the door to the board
if that is ok have you checked the on off switch on the door panel operates ( had a few on various machines that don’t work )Dave

ParticipantHi Dave.
Sorry for late response I’ve been away since 8 June and just picked up your message.
Yes I’ve checked all the wiring, door switch, float switch etc.
Probably needs the software in the module resetting.
I’ve given up on it now.Cheers.
Noel.

ParticipantHi Dave.
An update on this problem.Customer called out Hotpoint and it turned out to be the on/off switch not functioning.
Apparently it’s quite common that the switch works loose so that when you press the button nothing happens.You live and learn!
Cheers.
