model G5500SC fills up sprays for 10 minutes then says CHECK INLET no leaks no blockages any ideas welcomed

[electrofix]

is it losing water or is it still trying to fill ?

its not loosing water or trying to fill it just aborts after washing for 10 minutes

[electrofix]

ok

few things spring to mind

is the wash motor overheating and shutting down ?

if you switch off at the wall and wait 10 secs or so , what happens when you switch back on ( a lot of units start where the programme stopped )

you could try pausing the programme for 10 mins, if it lets you , or open the door. was trying to find out if something is getting too hot

ok thanks for the advice I will go and take another look

I would check for debris in the wash motor impeller.
or possible flow meter

plastic wrappers in pump impeller or heat pressure switch faulty…

If wash pump doesn’t generate enough pressure (or if heat pressure switch is faulty) check inlet shows, as logically it thinks it hasn’t filled.
