Re: Firenzi DW930/1 issues

Dave,

great call. It was clogged and disgusting. Despite spending hours with mirror and torch, it didn’t get better. So opened up the base of the machine, removed the water pump, removed the mesh grille and cleaned out the clog that had gotten in, preventing the water level switch from moving.

SOLVED! 5 hr marathon as I had to look up numerous youtube videos to find out which piece of the machine and how to remove it. But done.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
You rock!

Re: Firenzi DW930/1 issues

After running empty dishwasher tests with just one bowl facing upwards, i found that there is no water coming into the dishwasher. I tested the water switch on/off and same results both ways. The dishwasher doesn’t seem to be trying to pull any water in – usually there’s noise in the hose, now none. From reading online, it’s water inlet valve or float switch – where are these two and how do I test each?

Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Firenzi DW930/1 issues

thanks dave, I couldn’t look in (no space), so I felt around and found a grill on the right hand side. Moving my hand over it, I didn’t feel anything stuck to the grill. Is it removable? Should I try and look for a way to take it out and inspect it?

I did fill up the sump with water and it’s still there. But the machine is off, so not sure if that’s why it didn’t drain out.

Any other thoughts for me to check in the machine?

Appreciate the help.
