neff S5456 not completing a full cycle

[greenamber]

My integrated dishwasher (model S5456X) normally stops with one minute left on the timer and all the dishes still wet and sometimes not very clean.
I’ve seen a number of questions on this where the advice seems to be to clean out the transfer hose, the water matrix and the pressure chamber. Before I start to have a look inside my machine can you tell me which panels I need to take off and where I can find these items?
Thanks

Thanks for the pictures which have helped me clean out the pressure chamber. I can see that the transfer hose at the bottom front of the machine is very mucky but I can’t see how I get to the other end to clean it out (at the moement I can only get in the end that connects to the pressure chamber)

If you have a longish bottle brush , you’ll find the access to the other end at about the 7 o’clock position in the central sump indside the dishwasher. If you remove the filters etc from the centre of the base , you’ll find a smallish hole bottom left , if you’re looking directly down into the central recess.

If you want to remove the hose entirely , you’ll need to remove decor door , door panel and lower base plate panel.

Power off if you go either route.
