When I switch my dishwasher on the motor hums but it does not take in any water. I tried putting water in with the door open but it drained the water out and did not wash.
I rectified my own problem - I put a lot of water straight in shut the door and it worked. With the 3 in 1 tablets I now cut them in two and use half - this seems to work. The programme I use is 2 o'clock and I have no problems even if I only switch it on every 3 or 4 days. I rectified my own problem - I put a lot of water straight in shut the door and it worked.

Sounds like water-level sensor is ok as it stops filling then 'hums'. I'd (carefully) check the connections to the connections between the level-sensor and the wash motor start relay. Could be motor is bad or something is causing it to become 'jammed'. Before you begin opening the appliance, I'd attempt to vacuum out the water or try putting the control in the last position to cause it to try to pump out the water.
nova cd112 this is a simple fix the machine has a electronic switch to add water to the machine it then has another switch to say the machine has water iin it , this switch is the one that is not working this is the one that turns on the element and heat the water .it costs around a tenner to replace u can find it as it is connected to the element via a wire conection .this a a common problem of over enginearing as this switch is not needed and is not on older machine .ie this switch can only come on when the machine has water in it in other words only after the switch to put water in the machine has been on.can this go on i hope u know what i mean lol. now u can replace this yourself or get an engineer it should take an engineer no more than 10/15 mins to fix better still have him bypass this switch and u will never haver the problem again as this switch is prone to going fixthis and the machine should last years no problem as its not a bad machine not quite a bosch but better than a zanussi or indicit etc hope this helps and may i just say that i tried everything including replacing the element ,stat and cpu non of which worked before realizing it was this .i must also say before u try this. Switch on your machine on put it on a universal cycle as u hear the water going in the machine open the door and add hot water as hot as u can close the door and the machine should do a full cycle including emptying and reheating the water this proves its not the cpu ,element or stat note the machine will not do the cycle without the hot water going in at the start if it does the cycle then its 100 % this switch hope this helps and sorry for the lond explantion bye
Hello penny123 Welcome to fixya. My name is Huuum at your service.
You said, " YOU HAVE NO MANUAL AND NOT SURE WHAT THE SETTINGS ARE FOR."
I found the site where you can read or download your proper User manual for the Candy CS455M Dishwasher. Below is the site that will take you directly to the Candy online Manual search. When there, Manually start typing in the sc455 and a few model choices will pop up.Choose your cs455m and when it opens , you may print it or just read it to acquire the information you need.
