Hotpoint DC28 Dishwasher Problem




By DishWashDave on Oct 15, 2007

" "
Hi,

I have a 3 year old Hotpoint DC 28 dishwasher.  The other day I turned off the power button, mid-cycle and when I reset the machine and started a wash cylcle 2 days later the following happened:

The "wash" light came on, I could hear water coming into the machine, then after about 2 minutes everything stopped - except for a low hum.  I thought I also detected a faint smell of burning.

Since this I have tried the machine a few times but the same thing keeps happening.  I haven't noticed a burning smell since the first time however.  A repair guy wants to charge me over 100 to come out tomorrow to check it out.  If it's something I can check myself I'd rather not give him all that money!

Can you help?! Many thanks, David

-   We have a Hotpint DC28 slim dishwasher and have experienced the following problem (on xmas day as well!);

The dishwasher conducts its prewash, then the prewash and wash lights begin to flash simultaneously, causing progress to stop in and the machine to hum indefinitely with no further action.

Upon inspection of the manual we discovered that the manual offered no help in this situation other than to call "for immediate technical assistance."

This costing a fee of £89 and this being the third time of pondering weather to just purchase a new model, ours being only around 3 years old.

We pulled out the machine and inspected the back and pipes to ensure there was no blockage and as the machine was conducting the prewash and emptying the water we assumed that a pipe block was out of the question and it must be some kind of fault with the machine it's self.

Previously the problems we had encountered and called out the engeneer for were;

1) Door closure
2) New motor and element

It would be fantastic if anyone could help us with our issue or have any idea what could have happened


Thanks
