Re: Hotpoint Dishwasher LST216A

UPDATE: Thought I would update this hoping it may help out others as my dishwasher is FIXED!

Thank you iadom for your assistance, the machine suddenly sprung into life after me changing the program to eco wash. I’m chuffed as the part cost me a fraction of what Hotpoint wanted and I was so close to buying other dishwasher!

There you have it circulation pump failure was the cause.

Re: Hotpoint Dishwasher LST216A

Hi, I have replaced the recirculation pump today and after 2 minutes lights 1 & 3 are flashing still….during this the machine drains its self of water completely.

Could you please give me some advice on where to check next, I’ve seen a video of somebody plunging the filter area with some hot water (had same lights flash) to clear the pressure? Could that help at all…

EDIT: the humming noise has definitely gone after fitting the new part however.

Thank you

Re: Hotpoint Dishwasher LST216A

Thank you very much. Is there any way of checking the circulation pump. I have had this part off to check the heater recently (heater was ok).

There was a slight buzzing noise to before it drained itself to, would this point towards the circulation pump? Filters have all been checked. Also for the pressure switch can I test that possibly?

Thanks,
Lewis

Re: Hotpoint Dishwasher LST216A

Hi,

My Hotpoint dishwasher lst216a has the number 1 (eco) & 3 (soak) lights flashing. Could anybody tell me what this fault is please?

The machine fills with water by the sounds of it and then drains it minutes later and the lights flash?

Regards,
Lewis
