Eurotech Dishwasher problem

Hi there, my dishwasher does power up and makes the noise like it is beginning to wash but then stays on but doesn't begin to wash, I have put in salt and dishwashing powder the 3 in one Finish. I first thought the indicator in front was stuck and moved it around to different places but it still doesn't begin to wash. Any ideas for me?

Many Thanks

SOURCE: Error messages on a EuroTech EDW154E dishwasher??

Eurotech Dishwashers are notorious for the E1 and E4 faults. The problem is with the solenoid they use for filling the dishwasher. The problem is something called the "Venturi Effect". The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a fluid flows through a constricted section of pipe. The fluid velocity must increase through the constriction to satisfy the equation of continuity. while its pressure must decrease due to conservation of energy. The gain in kinetic energy is balanced by a drop in pressure or a pressure gradient force. I know, a lot of big words. To put it simply, the orifice within the solenoid is smaller than the inlets and outlets. Even more simply put: Not enough water is getting into the dishwasher. It's a design flaw and I'm not certain there are many ways around it. Just make certain that you have a good water feed to the dishwasher (no kinks, valve on completley etc.). One thing you may try is reducing the feed pressure (i.e. slightly turn down the water valve supply to the dishwasher). Doing so may diminish the venturi effect by equalizing inlet pressure. It's worth a try.

It appears that Eurotech isn't like a simple washing machine that senses fluid level and then shuts off the solenoid. It seems that it's on a simple timer. Turn on the solenoid for X time then turn it off. If not enough water, send fault code. It's a design flaw and I'm not certain there are many ways around it. Just make certain that you have a good water feed to the dishwasher (no kinks, valve on completley etc.). One thing you may try is reducing the feed pressure (i.e. slightly turn down the water valve supply to the dishwasher). Doing so may diminish the venturi effect by equalizing inlet pressure, hence allowing more water into the dishwasher. It's worth a try.

SOURCE: my eurotech dishwasher wont take water in

is this a new install? if so you must put about a gallon of water in the bottom of the unit and run as normal.the water should start to come into the unit. make sure the water valve is turned on also.

Bosch dishwasher makes noise but doesn't start

When you start a wash cycle on your Bosch dishwasher and it does not work, stay calm. It could be something simple, especially if you just installed it. Make sure the power cord is connected properly and a circuit breaker did not trip. How to Troubleshoot Bosch Dishwasher That Doesn Fill With Water

Loud sounds

Many Frigidaire dishwashers come with the promise of being the "quietest dishwasher in its class," according to Frigidaire. However, a quiet dishwasher doesn't necessarily mean that the dishwasher is silent, as some noises are normal. It can take some troubleshooting at times to determine if a noise coming from the dishwasher is typical or if it indicates a larger problem Listen for the sound of water filling and draining throughout the wash cycle. These sounds are normal and do not indicate an issue.

  • 2 Pay attention to the drain motor, which operates at the beginning of each cycle. This noise should be fairly quiet and should not sound like a loud, grinding or banging sound.
  • 3 Note that the sound will change when the wash cycle moves between the lower and middle spray arms. This sound should be temporary and fairly quiet.
  • 4 Look for hard items in the dishwasher grinder or filter if a loud crunching, buzzing or grinding sound is heard. The dishwasher can typically grind up these items within one or two cycles, but the item may be lifted out and discarded to eliminate the sound.
  • 5 Remove the bottom rack and spray arms from the bottom of the dishwasher if there is a loud noise coming from the dishwasher that does not resolve itself. Look inside for the impeller, which is round and spins. Remove any debris that may be clogging up the impeller or pump.

    I have an ASKO D3250 and it has recently started making a loud noise from the pump area. It starts as soon as the cycle begins and doesn't stop even if you open the door. It seems to stop about 90 seconds...

    All power and sounds should stop when any dishwasher door is opened.
    Your door switch may be stuck causing it to continue.
    The 90 second sound at the beginning of the cycle is the water pump extracting any residual water before taking on clean water for the wash cycle.
    Any excessive noise from the drain pump could be debris in the pump. e.g. broken glass.
    You can remove the pump and check it for blockage or any foreign object.

    Hotpoint Superplus 7822 dishwasher

    At the beginning of the cycle the dishwasher is attempting to pump out any residue water in the waste pipe and sump. It could be that the motor is sticking but you would probably also suffer from it not draining properly.
    It may just be noisy pump. I have a similar model and it is also quite noisy but nothing extraordinary.
    When the dishwasher is pumping out at the end of the washing cycle it may be quieter when there is water in the pump/pipes but then gets noisy as it 'pumps air'.
