Hello & Welcome to FixYa

You are right when the relay is burned replacing the board completely is recommended repair, hope you understand there is no other way to solve this problem. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

First I'm no expert. Second I have a DWF34. Try taking the left hand side cover off by removing the top (held on with 2 clips at the back) and then undoing the 2 torx screws visible on the left hand side when you open the door. On my appliance there is a red plastic bar attached vertically, located near the bottom just to the right hand side of centre which attaches the flood float to a micro switch. Check that the red bar moves freely and that the micro switch clicks on and off. If you have an electrical tester check that the micro switch works.
Beware close contact to electricity can often be detrimental to health ... unplug the appliance before you touch anything.

this error code is time out draining, check for a blockage

Here's what you can do to address this issue:

1. Check the Salt Level: Ensure that the salt reservoir is filled with dishwasher salt. The dishwasher needs salt to soften the water and improve the cleaning performance. If the salt level is low or empty, refill the reservoir with dishwasher salt.
2. Check the Salt Dispenser Cap: Make sure that the salt dispenser cap is securely closed. If it's not closed properly, it can cause the "X" symbol to appear on the display.
3. Reset the Dishwasher: Try resetting the dishwasher by turning it off at the mains power supply for a few minutes, then turning it back on. This can sometimes clear error codes and restore normal operation.
4. Check for Blockages: Ensure that the salt dispenser and its inlet are free from any blockages or obstructions that could prevent salt from dissolving properly.
5. Consult the Manual: If the issue persists, refer to the dishwasher's user manual for troubleshooting steps specific to your model. The manual may provide additional information about error codes and how to resolve them.

If none of these steps resolve the issue and the "X" symbol continues to appear on the display, it may indicate a more significant problem with the dishwasher that requires professional diagnosis and repair. In such cases, contacting Hotpoint customer service or a qualified appliance technician for assistance is recommended.
