Re: Diplomat ADP 8242 – some programs never end.
Hi karv,
With regards to the dispenser being the wrong one, it was the one pointed out by Penguin45 (UKW Moderator).

Which according to the description is the correct dispenser. I guess the best person to respond to this would be Penguin45.
In any case, the dispenser still appears to operate in the same way.

Hi Iorek,
Decided to cut my losses and call in a professional (especially with the PCB being very expensive), although haven’t managed to get around to that yet due to an urgent roof repair 🙁 . Maybe next month.
Please keep me posted with how you get on.
Re: Diplomat ADP 8242 – some programs never end.
Correction, after about two hours the water is luke warm. According to the instructions the temperature of the wash cycle is 45 degrees. After two hours though the heating may well be due to friction.
No error LEDs though.
I suspect you are probably correct with the diagnosis of a PCB problem, however it’s an expensive part so I’m thinking that it may be best to call in a professional to deal with it.
Was worth a try.
BTW – There are two sets of power connection terminals on the replacement dispenser (one set on the side and one set on the bottom), but only one set on the original dispenser. I’m using the set on the side that are in the same location as the terminals in the original dispenser which seems to work (the dispenser door opens successfully). What are the terminals on the bottom for?

Didn’t work 🙁
Think it might be time to call out a professional.
The problem also appears to have evolved in that:
– Only Program 1 (Rinse) now seems to end. All other programs now never end. Interestingly Program 2 (Delicates), before reaching the never ending stage was lasting around 4 hours (up 1 hour).
– The repeating part (with the 2 beeps at the end of each repeat) seems to have cold / cool water.I have also now noticed that when reaching the end of the repeating part and the dishwasher pausing that the program light fades out for a moment (as if it has lost power for a moment). Then the two beeps happen and the light comes back on again.
Worth repairing?

Wow, amazingly fast feedback!
I’m assuming that you mean that if I replace the dispenser only then this is likely to fix this problem?
Is this something that a keen DIYer can do themselves? If so, any instructions would be much appreciated.
Many thanks.
