Control panel which is a bit sensitive might need re-booting. Mine did the same and had a mind of its own, doing what it wanted, lights flashing all over the place, not completing the wash etc etc.
Switch off the machine and unplug from the mains. Leave for 10 minutes.
Plug back in, switch the machine on to your required programme and if ,like me, you are lucky, your machine should work again. If it happens again in the future you know what to do. Failing that go to the Hotpoint website, find the customer service number and ask if there is anything else you can do yourself to solve the problem, before paying for a service call. They are really helpful

I have the double drawer dishwasher. It is 3 years old. For about 1 year now one of the programmes - the second one along which is for quite dirty crockery and cutlery (programme is about 99 minutes) -...

A few things you could do.

Is this happening with both drawers.

Take a clean damp cloth and wipe the switches and the inside panel.

Get a couple of Finish dishwasher cleaner kits from the local woolworths/ safeway and run each drawer separately with one kit in each. You will have to select at least the 99 minute cycle.
This should help with having cleaner dishes.

Hope this helps. Please rate the solution if you find it helpful.

Led indicators honda xlr 125 "NOT FLASHIN AT RIGHT SPEED "

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

The reason that the flashing speed of LED indicators are faster/different from the standard bulbs is because the original flasher were designed for the current flow of bulb types. A LED type indicator offers very low resistance and consumer very little current hence the original flasher fails to operated correctly.

Your idea of changing the flasher relay is correct. Electronic/LED flashers are available here, here and/or here.

Good luck and thank you for using FixYa.

Ensure that your filters are not blocked - these are inside the unit. remove the grey plastic filter and see if there any food or other items jammed in it.

Make sure there is nothing underneath the filter - if there is items of food (e.g seeds) may already be restricting the exit pump path.

Hotpoint fdw60 fast and delicate lights flashing

Heater elements on FDW 60 do not last long at all, I am on my 3rd. You are better of buying a heating element and a decent limescale filter, otherwise it will keep happening. The flow through element builds up limescale, causing the element/thermostat to over heat.

Its a shame as they are quite a good dishwasher. Hotpoint 5 year parts warranty a waste of time. £90 call out charge.

The last one lasted 3 moths before delciates & fast light started flashing.

You can get the elements online for £40
