    G’day all

    probably a silly question? I have a bosch dishwasher that is not disolving the detergent tab, customer first reported that the “Spring” wasn’t working.

    What she meant was the dispensor wasn’t throwing the tab into the cabinet!

    the dispensor is opening at the right time and I have cleaned both spray arms. I have seen both spray arms operating and thought all was well.

    Just got a call this morning to say that the tablet is still in the machine without having disolved.

    Am I missing something obvious? 😳

    As a follow up…….I just thought that I would check the heater and that apears to be working 😮

    Has it got a short corrugated hose at the front, situated from left to centre in the base of the machine, this gets blocked up, resulting in not enough water 🙁

    HTH,

    I know you said that you cleaned the spray arms and that they were working but did you see the top spray arm actually spinning ? I’ve had the odd occasion where i’ve thought i’d cleaned out the spray arm , only for a hidden ‘gem’ to get pushed back into one of the jets on first use .

    Martin no mind reading? …..What sort of service engineer are you! 😆

    I have asked customer to test empty and she says same results. I definately saw top arm rotating – it showered me when I opened the door a little!

    Will have to check for that small hose Brian. Many thanks for all responses so far.

    Why do you need to know Martins credentials??
    A model number isn’t asking for the world 😀
    FYI Martin has 30yr + to his credit if you must know 😀

    Ok, most probable is that the water diverter on the heater assembly has failed and possibly taken the module with it. Depending on what sort of engineer you are, you will be able to deduce which, if both you require. 😕
