Beko de3762fw dishwasher keeps stopping and starting when it gets to main wash. sounds like it is trying to pump water in but after each pump it turns itself off then back on again and tries another pump.

The cycle timer could be defective, keeping the plate warmer turned on longer than necessary.

Its possible the relay on the main pcb has stuck, putting power to the drum motor constantly.

You have a bad wash motor( main motor)

I have just had this problem with my Beko dishwasher. Mine was running the pump constantly, I tried the tipping method which did reset a switch, and the machine would start to work properly then go back to just pumping again.
I tipped the machine up(lots of water came out) and took the bottom cover off which has a float and a switch in it. This switch stops the water flowing so not to flood your room when there is a leak within the machine. Now I had a good look around for split pipes etc and found that there was a pipe that had popped off completely, I put the pipe back on with a new clip and now it’s as good as new!

hi there.......this problem could be caused by a failed heater element ...if the element is not heating the machine will just wash wash etc...the front panel will have to be removed to check the heater element....if the element is ok...check the heater NTC ( little white plug in the heater element)...if all ok here....then you have a main PCB board failure....

it may be more economic to have beko send an engineer to you...

I have the same problem
dishwasher seems to try to wash but not get anywhere.
have tried tipping dishwasher to empty excess water out, filters and arms cleaned.
dishwasher just takes in water, hums for a bit and then the cycle ends after about 20 mins but obviously dishes are not clean

check for water leaks,unplug heating element,and try again.or the motor,then try again.

Sounds like you may have a corrosion issue or water ingress, causing a short. Could be a corroded heater, water in the main control board, water in the pump motor - the list is endless. Most washers tend to run the pump to ensure drum is drained before starting the cycle, so it would be probable that the problem is in the pump area.

You don't say if the main switch is an RCD or an ELB. I presume it's an RCD.
