I am from Srikakulam district, Anadhra Pradesh (State), India. I want to bye dishwasher which cleans heavy stains of fried items etc., kindly choose me best dish washer on emi basis.

It seems it is drain problem and check out your drain hose and drain pump for problems and clean all main motor and pump as much as you could do

Hi
Dishwasher not draining issue usually occurs due to kinked drain pipe, clogged drain filter or drain pump. First make sure that the drain is not clogged and remove clogs if present. If no visible lint is present then remove the lower front access panel to check the drain filter and drain pump for any clogs, you'll need to clean the drain filter and drain pump completely. Also, check for any food pieces stuck near the pump impeller & clean the chopper assembly. Please note that dishwashers don't drain out the complete water such that heating element doesn't overheat. Hope this helps... Please post back for any further assistance.

Unplugthe power cord to your dishwasher. You can do this by manually removing thedishwasher from the wall and unplugging it, or you can flip the power switch toyour kitchen at the circuit breaker (although you will need light to drain thedishwasher hose). 2 Put on your gloves,and, using your screwdriver, unscrew the screws from the kick plate of yourdishwasher. The kick plate is the panel just below the door of your dishwasher.3 Place your bucket on the floor in front of the dishwasher. 4 Unhook the drainhose by pinching the ends of the clamp and sliding it down the hose. Remove theother end from the pump. There will be two hoses in your dishwasher. The drainhose is the one that leads from the pump to the underneath of your kitchensink. 5 Point the hose into your bucket to drain any debris. Twist and scrunchthe hose to help remove the waste. 6 Test the hose by running water through it,and then reattach your hose in the same manner in which you detached it fromyour dishwasher.

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote that will help you with your dishwasher not draining problem...Dishwasher Problems - Water will not drain outheatman101

Check the hose for kinks, check if there is a screen in the hose that is clogged, remove the hose from the machine and turn the water on, see if water flows from it, listen to hear if the inlet solenoid is operating.

hello , the fuse will blow because theres a dead short in the dishwasher. 1 check the element with a multimeter this may have shorted to ground also there a possibility that the motor may have a short.then check the circuit board for any burn't parts thanks

Remove all the filters and looking down into the sump, at approx 10 o'clock you should see a plastic cover with a tx20 screw. Remove the screw and cover, this will expose the pump impellor, check it is free and remove any obstruction (caution advised as ther may be a shard of glass etc). With the cap off set a cycle, close the door and immediately reset the unit. (check how to do this from your user manual, usually holding the start button for 5secs, but models vary). You should hear the pump run and any debris will be expelled into the tank. Check the impellor again, replace the cap and screw. Do a visible check of the tank to see if any obstruction were 'spat out' by the pump. Check your outlet pipe, particularly if it is attached under the sink via a spigot for blockages. Run a prewash or quick cycle to test. I really hope this solves the problem, if you need to repost or comment for additional advise please do not hesitate. All the best and good luck.

Hi


If you are noticing that the dishes are not clean, then there are a few things to check for. Check the soap powder if it’s kept in a dry environment. Also try replacing the powder with something like a gel or liquid. Next thing to check for is the water pressure and fill valve. Check if the water is filling in and the spray arms are throwing the water with enough pressure. Try and listen to the sound if you hear a proper spraying action sound. If it seems as a low water pressure then check the fill valve.

Now, check if dishwasher is draining the water or not. While the dishwasher is working check whether the dishwasher is draining and there is not much left out water after the cycle is complete. Try cleaning the spray arm with a soft brush.

The water temperature plays a major role in cleaning of dishes. The temp should be between 125 and 150 F for dishwasher to clean the dishes. Please post back for any further assistance.

Could be the instantaneous water heater, the power module or both.
Or it may not be taking sufficient water to allow the heater to turn on as it has a boil dry safety. Check the following to rule out water shortage
if you remove the lid (no screws on lid, there are two clips at the rear, release them and the whole lid will slide back and then off) and take the two t20 screw off the left side panel at the front you should check the pressure chamber and its hose are not blocked. Use the link and go to page 4 to see where they are located, parts 480748 and 298556.

Hello Sandra, Welcome to Fixya ! You've come to the right place. The problem you're experiencing sounds like (unfortunately) a common one. The water inlet valve has been an issue with B/S/H built ( this includes bosch, thermador, seimens & gaggenau ) dishwasher's going back to the mid to late 90's. Unfortunately I've seen some pretty serious damage over the years in extreme cases when left unchecked for several days...or longer. Here's a tip on how you may be able to confirm or dismiss this possible problem by yourself. When the dishwasher complete's a wash cycle turn off the water supply line to the machine ( usually under the sink in the cabinet ) If the unit doesn't fill as it had been, it's probably a faulty water inlet valve. Having said all this, you may want to call in a pro if you aren't completely comfortable doing that. The part to repair it is available at most brick & mortar appliance part centers or you can check out on-line vendors such as repairclinic.com, apwagner.com etc. Supply them with your model AND serial number to be sure you get the correct valve. You can also do a search for part # 1105846 at repairclinic ( that is their part # not B/S/H/ ) you'll see what I'm talikng about. By the way it's about $35. Hope that helps move you forward. Let me know if I can assist you further, or need help on how to change it etc. It's relatively easy with Bosch/Siemens, just turn off the power, the water, access is gained through the kick plate/toe panel below the door. The valve will be on the left and involves only removing 2 screws, the water line in & out and 2 wires which go on either way...they aren't polarity specific. Thanks for coming to "fixya" for your inquiries and please take a second to rate this answer according to my helpfulness. Good luck. Macmarkus :)

Hello,
In the water inlet hose close to the valve on your supply end,its encased in a big ( 2") plastic housing with a brass fitting.

Hope this helps.
