    Thanks Bryan – looks like I’ll be dipping into the bank account then.

    Hi Penguin45,

    OK, We did what you said and it worked a treat. Unfortunately now though it looks as though the cause of the flooding was another more fundamental problem. The machine starts any program, fills and then as the program gets to the point where it starts washing (I assume this is when the spray arms are supposed to start to rotate) it makes a horrible noise and stops, waits for ages drains a little and then refills again, goes throught the trying to start washing makes a horrible noise again and then waits for ages, only for the whole process to start again. It does this through the whole cycle and then drains and dries as it should, but obviously as the water has not circulated the machine properly dishes etc inside are still dirty. I am assuming that because the machine kept filling but only draining a little in the middle of the cycle this is why it flooded in the first place, it had obviously stopped mid-cycle due to the water in the cabinet.

    Do you know if this is a problem with the progam control and how to fix it, or are we going to need a new control panel?

    Thanks.

    Thanks Penguin45, will give it a go and see if that solves it. Rubber gloves on until then!

    Hi there,

    I have the same flashing light on my diplomat 8502 (but this was not caused by washing up liquid!! I filled the machine with dishes this morning and this is what happened when I switched it on).

    I have tried holding my finger on the button for 20 seconds but it just does the same program sound (actually sounds like it is trying to start draining or the sound it makes when the program starts at the very beginning just before filling commences) but then that sound stops and the light continues to flash.

    There is no rinse setting on this machine, only three choices of program selected by turning a dial, so I can’t think of anything else to try.

    Any sensible suggestions gratefully received.
