Neff S5555 dishwasher constantly draining

[cfmarshall]

I have a two year old Neff S5555 which has stopped working.

Although it successfully empties out all the the waste water it does not seem to want to finish it’s wash cycle – getting stuck in a constant drain (with the pump running and impeller spinning to remove water that is not there).

I have switched the machine on and off, reset the programme to no avail.

Base of machine flooded! Turn off the power then tilt machine backwards by about 45 degrees, the water in the base will pour out (have a towel at the ready).

That should cure the problem but only temporarily as it has an internal leak somewhere cuasing the base to fill up?

Right first time Martin. Thanks very much.

Drained the sump by tipping the machine over and we’re back to normal. I assume that the leak won’t magically fix itself, so I’ll see how quickly the problem recurs.

Are there any obvious places to look for the leak or are we talking major surgery ?
