Beko DW602 stops

[kephigo]

My Beko DW602 has stopped working. It runs for about a minute, then stops. I’ve run a diagnostic test and all 5 program lights flash, but I’ve been unable to find anything that explains what that means. I’ve removed the lower panel and can’t see any obvious issues – there’s no water in the tray and I can’t see any loose connections. I’ve tried putting some water into the bottom before running it, and the water is drained successfully. The only other clue I have is that I filled up the salt dispenser the day before it stopped working so I wonder whether that is related? (I’ve read of someone who had a similar issue and found a loose salt dispenser was responsible – but that’s not the case for me!)

Thanks in advance.

there is no such fault code

the only situation I have seen this is a main board failure. when you first turn on the machine all light come on then go off and one light remains allowing you to select a programme. if all light stay on the its a timer fault

Just to follow up on this I have managed to resolve the problem – I gave some of the internal pipes a good clean out; one in particular was quite clogged so that must have been the issue. After resolving the problem I ran the diagnostic test program again and the 5 lights still flash, so maybe that just means it can’t find a problem?!

My only slight concern is that, when I removed the bottom of the dishwasher two pipes that feed into the overflow switch came undone before I noticed exactly where they were attached. I’ve reattached them to the switch but I’m not 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain I’ve got them in the right position. Anyone know how they should be attached? There seem to be four sockets on the switch (2 each side) but only 2 pipes. As I say, it all seems to be working ok now so maybe I don’t need to worry, or could there be an issue with the overflow switch if I’ve got them wrong?

don’t think it matters where hoses are attached. The spigots just hold the hoses so any leaks fall around the switch so it operated the float. as long as the water can get out in that area it will work

Thanks, that’s what I was hoping for.
