Re: hotpoint dwf30 problem
Finally found the problem. I removed the control panel to expose the circuit boards and having removed them one of the relays had blown a massive hole in the board and one leg of the device had completely melted. Decided due to cost of replacement board and no guarantee that it wouldn’t do it again to buy a new dishwasher.
Just like to thank you for all your assistance, it was greatly appreciated.
Chris.
Re: hotpoint dwf30 problem
From what you said earlier I can only assume yes.
When I hold in buttons 1 & 3 nothing happens to light 2 , however light 1 stays on until I release both buttons. Then lights 1 & 3 flash.
Re: hotpoint dwf30 problem
Fill Chamber completely clean. Could you tell me where I pick up the connections to the heater so I can put a meter across it.
Incidentally I tried pressing buttons 1 & 3 and switching on to run test routine however instead of light 2 & 4 flashing to indicate the test is active all I get is light 1 & 3 flashing. Does this indicate anything ?
Re: hotpoint dwf30 problem
Thanks for that, there was just one other thing I would like to ask and that is how do the sides come off.
I have taken the two screws out from the front and taken the top off but they dont seem to want to come off easily. They pull out from the bottom but the top edge doesn’t seem to want to move.
I didn’t want to be to heavy handed in case i bent them.
Re: hotpoint dwf30 problem
Ok cleaned the pipe in the bottom left hand corner although it was only slightly dirty. Put dishwasher back together and set it to run economy wash and after 2 hours plus it finally ended.
There had obviously been no heat during the programme as the contents were still wet along with the inside, there was also suds left in the bottom but no water.
Any suggestions on how I can cure this problem would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks, Chris

All you’ve got to do is remove the door panel, kick panel and inner lower front panel and all will be revealed.

❓ Hi Penguin could you explain in greater detail how this is done please.
