    The pressure sensor is the little doofer inserted into the small hose from the top of the circulation pump to the lower spray arm.

    Not sure if you have the manual, sent it anyway. 😀

    Hi

    After you start it. Have a look at the rear pipe work that goes up the back.. Is the water fully going up there?. If not put a extra 1 1/2 Ltrs of water into the dishwasher and check again. This is either the haier or midia machine and it’s a common fault and there is a modified pressure switch for this .

    Don’t think these are Chinese Bryan, all listed as made in Italy. No mention of a pressure switch mod in the tech info that I can see 😕

    It does have a flowmeter (impellor jug type thingy) that can give problems.

    As the problem seems to be intermittent and you’ve eliminated most of the above I wonder if it could be either an intermittent blockage (as sometimes caused by small bits of plastic film in the circulatory system for example) or a loose or partly burnt electrical connection somewhere.
