diplomat ADP8152 — tablet ejects without disolving

[dak]

so…

diplomat ADP8152

have checked the spinning arm, and theres no blockages — the water goes through and squirts out fine.

not changed washing poweder/soap brand recently.

problem is: the machine goes through it’s cycle, and when it’s finished the dishes are wet but still dirty, and theres a soggy, half-disolved tablet on the bottom of the dishwasher 🙁

it looks as if the dispenser(?) door is supposed to open mid-cycle, but im not sure wether its opening too late/too early or something.

any help would be appreciated.

i have the dispenser bit out of the door, and it looks as if everything’s in place and ok, but if there’s any questions about the internal bits of the door, feel free to ask.

———-

out of complete curiosity: what’s the little bit of plastic on the botom for? the bit that looks like a nut with lots of holes around the top? i took the unit apart once to fix a leak and some burnt-out electronics, and i noticed it. it looks like an over-flow, but iirc it leads strait to the electronics 😯

cheers in advance.

Hi
It sounds to me like a heating problem maybe, if the spray arms are clear and washing with full gusto.

Un plug appliance if you are going to investigate further :plug:

cheers 🙂

it’s definately heating up properly. i just opened it mid-cycle, and the steam that came out was bordering on painfully hot, and the dishes were similarly hot, although this was in cycle 4; cycles 1-3 never get above lukewarm (not sure wether they should).

lots and lots of water driping from the dishes aswell, so no problem with the arms.

any more ideas?
