Siemens dishwasher not filling

[hulkecho]

Hi,
I have a siemens dishwasher model SE24M851GB
It was working fine until yesterday.
When i start the cycle it drains, then once the wash cycle starts no water enters the drum.
The water supply is good. i cleaned all the filters and washing arms.
I striped the side panels. There is a float switch which seems to go up and down freely.

Can anyone help. i ve read that it may be the water inlet valve.
Here is a link to a video of the side of the machine during the wash cycle..

Re: Siemens dishwasher not filling

the float keeps on rising shutting off the water and starting the pump. the hose out of that chamber goes to the sump

its blocked, remove and clear

float should not rise unless there is a fault

Dave,
Cant thank you enough for taking the time to watch the video.
I got the hose out from the switch to the sump…. it was blocked, cleaned it out, fitted it all back together and its working beautifully.
