    Re: Flooding ADP8332

    It’s leaking into the base. The base will be full of water and may well be shorting out the wash pump.

    Before working on your appliance please disconnect it from the wall socket.

    Normally, no heat and no error code is a module fault.
    The module can check the components but it can’t check itself.
    Looks like the original diagnosis may well be correct.

    If there’s a problem with one of the door switches giving a door open situation it will be indicated as a green flashing light on the front panel, it should also be accompanied by an alarm sounding.
    If it’s the numbers that are flashing then the temperature in the affected cabinet has risen above “safe” temperature.

    Re: flashing light on wate dispenser

    The filter light should be a steady light. It’s a tricolour led and shows green if it’s ok, amber when it’s nearing the end of it’s life and red when it should be changed.
    As to the flashing light, it wouldn’t be a green light with a key symbol to the left or right of it would it?
    If you could describe where the light is on the control panel it may help pinpoint the problem.

    I’m assuming the dishwasher was working OK prior to this and that it hadn’t been moved.
    It sounds as though the inlet valve is locked out, possibly due to a partial blockage in the matrix or in the internal pipework.
    Unplug your machine, turn the water off and disconnect the fill hose at the dishwasher end. Some water will come out of the inlet. Reconnect the hose, plug in the dishwasher and set it going. If it starts to fill don’t assume it’s fixed, it’ll probably lock out again due to a partial blockage.
    If it still fails then it’s probably time to look in repairs@ for an engineer.

    Hope this helps.

    Re: w`pool F/I Dishwasher ADG 7540/1 – No Heat.

    Came across this fault a few times when I worked for the W/pool agent.
    Every time, no heat and no error code, was a fault with the module, either burnt out module or faulty software. Reprogramming with the SAM cured a few of them, others were replacement module.
    As far as I remember the two spade connectors to the module are the wires to the heater, you can check the heater and toc by metering from these connectors.
    Hope this helps you.

    Check the connection to the flowmeter and also check the pressure switch is clean and free of debris.

    Re: Diplomat right most light flashes x6, pause, repeat

    I suspect this may be a Whirlpool machine and if it is there should be a label on the right side of the door when it’s open with model and serial numbers.
    Basically 6 flashes indicates no water coming in. Pull it out and see if it works, the fill hose may have been kinked when it was put back in place or the valve hasn’t been opened. To reset the alarm, press and hold the start button until the light goes out.
    Hope this helps.

    Re: Diplomat dishwasher stops after 30 seconds.

    From the description of the buttons I reckon it’s a Whirlpool machine.
    When it’s doing it’s beeping and you open the door is the light at the right hand button flashing? If it is, count the flashes between the pauses and post the result here.

    Re: Diplomat ADP8322

    When you open the door after it has stopped dead is the light above the start button on, off or flashing?
    if it’s flashing count the number of flashes between the pauses and let us know.

    Re: Diplomat Dishwaster ADP8332

    There is a possibility of overfoaming having taken place. This would generate an F8 error. As a result of overfoaming the base may well be flooded and if the float switch is fitted to your machine this would generate the F2 error.
    You’ll need to unplug it from the mains and take the machine out, put some towels at the back corners and tilt it back a little.
    If I’ve got it right there should be some water drains out onto the towels.
    Once you’ve done this test it by plugging it back in and holding the start button to reset it. Set your wash programe and hopefully it should now work.
    If it still doesn’t work it’ll be engineer time and there will be no problem with the engineers on here carrying out the work.
    Hope this helps.

    Re: Indesit test plug – has anybody got one ?

    Yep, I’ve got one of them. I’m not working next week so if it’s a short term loan you’re after I wouldn’t have a problem with that.
    Send me your details and I’ll send it to you.

    Re: WHIRLPOOL ADP262 DISHWASHER

    Hiya,
    If this is the electronic module type of machine then no heat and no error code is normally corrupted software in the module.
    If you have access to a SAM, reprogram it, if not you’ll have to replace it.
    You could also check the pcb for burnt out tracks or bad solder joints.
    Hope this helps.

    Re: American Whirlpool Drier ‘Dead’

    Just had a look for the service sheets but don’t have them anymore so having to work from memory here.
    “Dead machine” I’d be looking for a blown inline fuse, dodgy door switch and checking the belt switch.
    As far as I can remember of the wiring set up, the white cylinder is a thermal fuse, it links across to the thermostats on the heater and then through the belt switch. (could be the belt switch first in line, really can’t remember).
    If the belt snaps it cuts power to heater and motor (dead machine), same would happen if the switch is broken or faulty I would imagine. The thermal fuse and thermostats should only affect the heater circuit.
    Hope that this is of some help to you.
