got one of these at home….. the machine is not letting in enough water to work… ie ,the circ pump is cavitating and not putting water to the arms with enough pressure.. i used to work on these a lot about five years back and remember there being a link on the board to increase the inlet time,.. any ideas, its a 765 by the way.
cheers
russellTrouble is Russell that we don’t see many fro two reasons…
They didn’t sell many.
Even if they did, they don’t break often enough to take a guess.

Re: asko table top dw
Which detergent are you using; and how much of it are you using?
DO NOT use tablets: they are designed for 12-place settings machines.
Use a standard powder, but only use a level teaspoonful. Using too much will cause overfoaming (thanks to the oxygen based bleach!), and the circulation pump will ‘hunt’, with poor wash results. Some machines can activate the flood prevention circuits.
The old chlorine POWDER detergents are still available, from farmers’ supply shops, etc., sold as “Professional”. They tend not to foam in machines, are very good on tea and coffee stains, but are somewhat more aggressive on crockery decoration and glassware.
Liquid dishwasher detergents contain chlorine bleach, but apparently do not clean as well as powders
“Professional Tablets” will cause foaming in compact machines (oxygen bleach formulation).
I would also recommend the use of separate rinse-aid, and salt where required.
Re: asko table top dw
i understand that .. but the problem is happening before any detergent is put in….. just connected it up and ran it a few times… everything is nicely steamed inside after 2-3 mins… and no,the drain hose is not syphoning.. i thought of that first
Re: asko table top dw
Have the symptoms suddenly appeared, as in the last few days/weeks, or has the machine always been like that?
It could be fatty sludge in the pressure vessel. I remember “Which?” castigating ASKO/ASEA for the instruction NOT to wash greasy pots & pans in the table-top machine…circa early ’90’s.
