ok, 🙂 , again thanks for the help.
ps the machine drained ok after its cycle.
ive fed lots of water via bucket and cant seem to get it to go wrong now.
it will be like my oven. I dismantled it and it worked for a week and then jammed again.
if the dishwasher jams again, i will either replace the motor (if i can work out how. if cant work out how, the labour will probably such that i will buy a new machine).
Thanks for the link. Didnt notice the Tecnik part number in that list, but I assume its ok?
Out of interest what is the relationship between Siemens/Tecnik and Bosch. My Tecnik fan oven packed up not too long ago and again it was a Bosch motor I used to replace it.
Anyone got any ideas how to fit this motor. Access from the bottom looks difficult, there is a big white bit underneath that not obvious how to remove. It looks like the white housing where the filter and aggetitor are located possibly could drop down, not up, making the whole white undercover removal problem a big issue.
“but more than likely its the pump itself tiring.”
Yes thats my trend of though. Like maybe the pump cant fire up in certain positions.
Ive got the unit completely pulled out but I cant say its obvious how the thing should be disassembled.
By the way , do you know how much a pump costs?
Re: Tecnik TKD 795/2 wont drain
Ok, i removed the cover of the impeller (hey im learning the technical terms!!!) and yes it does sort of “twang”, wanting to return to set positions.
I turned the unit on without the cover and heard a happy swishing sound. I then put the cover back on and this time it hums. So I removed the cover again and still it hummed. So I moved it about with my fingers and this time it swished. Put the cover yet back on (without a screw) and it swished. Screwed it in and it swished. I put some water in the unit and it got drained.
So now Ive put all the filters back in and trying a cycle and see what happens.
Indication I guess is it might be impeller related.
Again, thanks for the amazingly quick feedback. If there some other test I ought to run let me know, i’ll stop the cycle.
Re: Tecnik TKD 795/2 wont drain
Hi,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
The water is above all the filters. About 3/4″ of water sitting on the base.
Ive removed all the filter covers and also removed the small cover (the one thats screwed in) that reveals a cog like wheel. There doesnt seem to be anything abstructing the wheel , I can turn the wheel by hand fairly easily.
Ive also tried several cycles with nothing in the dishwasher to see if the drainage problem sorts itself out with a few rinses (which it doesnt).
