just thought I would post this to give you an idea of the depths Hoover has sunk to from the great company it once was
Was call out to a baumatic dishwasher with a leak
32901521 – BDIH 1L952-80
the leak proved to be the pressure switch which is clipped to the top of the heater tube. possibly not helped by the sound deadening pad coming off and becoming draped over it
parts needed are at least the clipped top (item 63) but to make sure the seal and heater tube ( items 60 and 64)
looked up parts on Hoover and parts I need are shown on parts diagram but in the listings item numbers jump from 59 to 65. seems at the moment you cant get this part effectively scrapping a 3 year old dishwasher

The clips breaking off the pressure switch is a common problem – so much so that there is an updated design with a metal bracket clamped round it.
The part no that you need is 0120808373.

brilliant thanks Jem
why does no one even the hoover tech site mention this, madness, they just dont list the part at all
even did a chat with 4ourhouse who do the spares for baumatic and their answer is you cant get itDave
I had to ask Aswo the first time that I needed one but now anytime I get a call about one of these machines in antiflood I make sure to take this part with me. There is not an official bulletin for the issue that I know of but the last couple of parts that I recieved were the modified ones.

Removing the earth wire for the heater can be a pain in the rear end but the other terminals are for the heater are easily accessible from behind. If I remember rightly there is enough slack on the pressure switch wires for them to stay connected till you can get it to an easier position otherwise just snap the rest of the pressure switch off.
I would remove the heater from the tube first then disconnect the feed to the upper basket from the back wall, then with the machine tipped backwards (45 degrees), it is much easier to wiggle/slide the feed pipe and heater tube down as an assembly to disconnect them. The clamp at the front is a little awkward but I have managed a couple of times to just wiggle the pipe out of it without having to disconnect it first.
Again when reassembling it is much easier to reattach the feed pipe while it is stuck out the bottom of the machine, also reattach the pressure switch wiring before you get it into final position.Jem
