Re: Parts for Fisher and Paykel Double Dish Drawer DD603H

Hi K

Yes its both internal hoses that are bust. They are in the bottom of the dishwasher and to the very back left hand side, sort of under the white plastic removeable cover and they join to a black plastic pipe that seems to be part of another part – if that makes sense.

I do use salt although I cannot guarantee that I have not run it with the salt light on – usually when I am waiting to get to the supermarket because I have run out – although I thought it would be ok as the dishwasher tablets contain calgon and I thought that also helped with hard water???

I will try and take a photo of bust hoses to post.

Is there anyway I can tell if the salt pots are bust??

Cheers, Tabitha

Hi K

Thanks for replying. I need the hoses and salt pots or softener pots as the engineer also called them for the following (cut and paste from my other post!):

Hi, me again! Have had an engineer to look at my dw with a F1 fault on both drawers. He said both fill hoses had split. This was because the salt pots on this machine are sized for the newzealand market where they dont have hard water. We have hard water here so they get limescaled up and cause the fill hoses to explode. And both mine exploded at the same time! He has quoted approx £250 – £280 for repair which included labour, 2 fill hoses, 2 salt pots and possibly a pc board as I wont be able to stop the F1 error now as it has had water in the base of the machine for 24 hours or so. He said If I repair it, I need to fit a water softner in the house or it will happen again. He said to replace with a whirlpool standard dishwasher would be a better bet, which they could supply and fit and take my old one away. I love my dishwasher – I can load a top drawer without the “help” of my little ones, and as I paid £699 for it 2 years and 3 months ago, it seems a shame to bin it. But for £250 I could get a new machine with warrantly. Has anyone who works on or owns this dishwasher experienced the same and would I be throwing money away repairing it? I have posted on the parts forum to see If I can get parts cheaper myself as my hubby is handy enough to do the repair. Thanks for reading, Tabitha

We are going to attempt a repair ourselves if possible as I am loathe to bin the machine as I love it! Having looked inside the machine, both fill hoses (clear plastic ridged hoses) have split near the ends at the point where they attach to a what I assume is the black plastic water tubey bit where water comes into the machine – under the white plastic cover. One has an inch long split, the other about three inches! Any advice you can give would be great. Many thanks, Tabitha

Re: Fisher Paykel Dishdrawer DD603H F1 error

Thanks penguin45 for your reply. Am waiting for repair man as I type! Their prices seem quite reasonable compared to some of the things I have read when googling about repairs for these dishwashers. Hopefully it can be quickly resolved.
