IKEA DWF B10 7 Flashes

[spoonhead]

Hi, I’ve been reading the forums and it seems that 7 flashes suggests a flow meter issue. I’ve had the dishwasher out, checked and cleaned the circuit board and connections and tried to run a cycle but the same thing happens.

So I’ve looked into buying a new flow meter. I’ve been quoted a price of £48.72 for a new tank and a whopping £145.05 for a printed circuit board! Cant believe it, it’s a tiny thing with just a couple of components on it! Not to mention that I could almost buy a new dishwasher for this price!

I have a couple of questions. Firstly, are these prices reasonable? Seem like daft prices to me! Secondly, is there anything else I can check before I make any decisions about paying for a new circuit board? Is there anything else that could be causing the problem? Inspection of the printed circuit board showed that it was clean, no corrosion and the ‘fuse’ type component seemed fully intact.

Any help appreciated, thanks.

The flow meter circuit board is part of the fill chamber and can be bought from the shop here http://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/Dishwash … amber.html

The circuit board is not available as a spare part on its own so I assume that the price you have got is for the main control board for the appliance.

Thanks for the reply. Is there any other things I should check before I commit to buy new parts or choose to buy a new washer?

Does the appliance actually take water ?

I don’t think so. None comes into the machine when I run it with the door open. It sounds like it’s working when you start a cycle but it stops after perhaps 45 seconds, bleeps, and the light flashes for 7 seconds.
