Hi, I have a dishwasher model sgs5022gb/07 that won't fill with water. Also the dial doesn't move round as the program progresses. This has happened before but it corrected itself. It's like it's got itself in a knot. Have tried turning off the power supply and leaving it for a bit, but this hasn't helped.

The flood switch is tripped. This is located under the unit. Unplug or flip the breaker to the dishwasher, take off the black kick plate under the door, 2 screws, and you will see the white plastic "pan". The flood switch is located where you can't really see it but it is on the left hand side wall and is made of styrofoam. The best thing to do is to put some rags in the pan, this is not easy because there is little room to put them, and soak-up the water that has filled the pan. Eventually you will get enough water out that the float will deactivate the switch. What you hear "running" when you turn it on is actually the drain pump, it get activated when the flood switch is tripped.

My Neff S5443X1GB/07 dishwasher stops after approx 20 mins of washing, the water is nice and hot but it needs the door opening and closing several times to encourage it to progress a bit further of th

If your unit has a round dial timer (like many washer machines) the timer may be sticking. If it has an electronic timer then the door switch may be faulty. Don't run this unit unless someone is nearby, if the door switch shorts out, you may have a fire.

How to move around brandt wm 550

see this causes and fix it. God bless you
When the cycle doesn't advance, it's probably the timer or a cold-water supply problem: It's the timer, if your washing machine fills with water and begins agitating, but the timer never advances--or if the washer is in a spin cycle and the timer won't advance. Then you need to replace the timer. It may be a cold-water supply problem, if the washing machine fills with water, agitates, drains, and spins, but then doesn't fill with rinse water. See There's no cold water.

Water only dribbles out of lower spray arm during cycle and spray arm doesn't turn. checked filter, water lines etc. If it's a motor or pump that needs to be replaced, how do I get to it?

Hi

When the Dishwasher won't fill you'll need to check for the water inlet hose, the water inlet valve and the float switch assembly. When the water fills your dishwasher, a float rises along with it. As the float reaches a certain threshold level, it shuts off the flow of water, thereby preventing a leak. Sometimes the float can get stuck in the wrong position in your dishwasher, and it can prevent your dishwasher from filling. Sometimes it can happen due to float valve and on other occasions due to float switch. Inspect the water hose coming to the dishwasher for any blockages. If the hose is not clogged then check the water inlet valve for any clogs, if the water will not even fill for few seconds then certainly the water inlet valve is bad and should be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to check continuity on inlet valve. If you don't get any value on the multimeter then you'll need to replace the water inlet valve assembly. However, if the valve is fine then the float switch assembly should be replaced. Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more information.

Going through full wash as normal but won,t go onto rinse or spin mode?

Hi,
Most front load units must have two things, door must lock and must sense cold water for rinse. I would check the fill line for the cold water, if clogged with sand, it will not progress through cycle. If the unit doesn't drain it will not spin, is there water left inside the drum area?
I am here if you want more assistance

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

You said it does not progress...meaning the dial does not eventually move? it may be waiting on a water level sensor to be tripped. The dishwasher is just not filling. The water valve solenoid may be stuck or defective. or a wire may have come off the valve solenoid.
