Question about Whirlpool 24 in. ADP5962 Free-standing Dishwasher
The machine flashes the green light on the button when pressed on a program, and then after a few seconds moves to the END cycle and sits there for a while before stopping. I suspect the machine may not be filling with water but I'm not sure. I'm competent enough with a screwdriver and I've got a degree in computing/electronics so I can probably tackle anything not too specialist in nature. (1 question before tackling anything involving a stripdown I always like to ask is) What is the best way to get access to the part in question if it transpires that I need to do so. You guys can save me time and energy stripping the thing down by giving a pointer to the most efficient access :-) For example the water inlet is tight to access through the snap-off cover plate so do I remove the back plate in total and if so what is the quickest way Thanks in anticipation Best wishes Chris
Hiya.sounds like the base of your is full of water due to a leak..disconnect from the electrical supply.and lay the machine on its back.you will probably get a wet floor at this point.that proves the base is full of water.ther are two t25 torx screws onthe front of the base plate.remove these an slide the base forward off of the two plastic clips.look for water lines leading into the base.repair the leak and replace the parts.alternatively,if the light flashes four times,a part called an ntc has failed.this is the part that detects the water temp..when 1st switched on,the appliance runs a diagnostic check.it may detect this is faulty.

My EWD1477 was doing this a year ago and I fixed it. Then it started
doing it again a month ago and I seem to have cleared it again.
Firstly, remove the drain hose from where it is inserted into a laundry
sink hole to make sure it is not blocked or sealed in with sludge.
Secondly, make sure the machine is empty of water and clothes and then turn
the machine to off with the Program Selector Dial. Then turn off the power at
the socket and remove the power plug and leave for five minutes.
Step 1: put the plug back in and turn the power back on.
Step 2: turn the selector switch to the right (Whites/Intensive). The green light of the Start/Pause button
should be flashing and the green lights on for Prewash/wash, Rinses and
Spinning. Don't press any other buttons or change any other settings.
Step 3: press the Start/Pause button and wait for the machine to empty
any excess water. Press it again immediately after you hear water flowing into
the machine OR two audible clicks. The machine is now in pause mode with the
green light of the Start/Pause button flashing. Only the green light on the Prewash/Wash
button should be on. Leave it in pause mode for 30 minutes and then press the Start/Pause
button to recommence the cycle.
Step 4: If the Start/Pause button begins flashing, water stops flowing
into the machine and the three green lights mentioned above are back on, turn
the Program Selector Dial back to off, wait 10 seconds, and repeat the process
above.
Step 5: If when you then turn the Program Selector Dial to
Whites/Intensive and hear the two audible clicks, immediately press the
Start/Pause button to set the machine in pause mode. Wait 30 minutes. Then
press the Start/Pause button to recommence the cycle.
Hopefully the cycle will run without a problem.
