Hotpoint FDW60 problem

If this happens within the first. 9 secs after filling it means you have a hearing fault

Hi First you have to check the water valve to see if it has power during the time it should be filling the washer , Set the unit to fill and wash you know where it normally starts filling with water , remove the two wires from the water valve and check to see if you have power going to the valve , you have to eleminate things to find out what the problem is , if you have power then check to see if you have water to the valve, if you have water and you have power but you arent getting water then the water valve is bad , and this will be a cheep easy fix , have a good day

You most likely have a stubborn clog in your kitchen drain. Try filling the sinks with warm soapy water and then letting the water drain while also turning on your garbage disposal. Sometimes the extra water pressure will help push the clog through.

if the eco light is flashing, this indicates that saftey float switch has activated in the base of the dishwasher usually caused by a leak, a polystyrene float activates a microswitch which cuts of the water inlet supply

In my case it was the pressure sensor on the side of the short hose between the main (circulatory) pump and the bottom jet arm (which spins inside the machine)

Remove it and test resistance on terminals while blowing into the tube.




There is another pressure sensor on a hose attached to the waste assembly but appeared to be working correctly.

unplug it for an hour this normally fixes this problem on my machine

Hi i have hotpoint FDW60 when i swich the plug and the dishwasher starts then you hear the dishwasher filling up it trips my electric in the house.

This is a Circuit Board that is bad (main control).Do not repair this because the problem returns,and returns.

Can you hear/see any washing sound/spray, it sounds to me like the wash pump could be faulty.

Most common reason is that the lower spray arm splits on the seem and sprays water under the door, to proove if it is this remove lower spray arm and run through program if no leak fit new arm. Regards Advisor
