Diplomat dishwasher won’t drain and is tripping electrics

[sticklebrick26]

Model number is ADP8322

Came home today, dishwasher is beeping, hasn’t drained and is full of dirty water at the bottom, though dishes were not washed.

We’ve removed the filter at the bottom of the machine and tried a plunger which hasn’t helped.

We’ve tried disconnecting the waste and blowing up it, and checked the drain outside which seems ok.

Tried running washer again and it’s tripped the electrics twice within a few minutes of the cycle starting.

Outlet pipe which is about 18ins above where it drains from the dishwasher has been disconnected.

Sink is draining okay. Can anyone advise on possible fixes we can try now? Or do we need a new dishwasher?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Have solved the problem of the draining, pulled out the washer and pulled waste pipe out to try to drain it below the level of the washer — the waste was completely bunged up!

All working again now but we’ve accidently pulled the cupboard door on the washer away from the machine door.

It looks like it’s fixed to the door with four brackets and one has come away — can’t work out how to fix that back on, can anyone help please?

The washer is working but the door is catching slightly on opening due to it being partially loose.

Fully open door. Slacken screws 2 + 4 down each side of the door by two turns. With the door closed, push the outer panel home with one knee and lift the door panel firmly. Open the door and tighten the screws.
