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.
It is obvious the drain or pump out is not working. There is a blockage in the outlet. Check the drain under the sink nby removing the hose and making sure the hole is not blocked. The pump in the dishwasher may be blocked. fixing this may not be within your field of expertise and a technician may be needed. Good luck
you can try siemens company which is the same company as bosch and thermador and gaggenau. go to thermador.com and callthem to find out how old your unit is . i think they use the serial # to show production date.
get another hose same diamiter and two hose clamps and a splice nipple from hardware store, cut hose to lenght with some extra insert nipple into both hoses and clamp with hose clamps make sure you get them tight.. use a metal nipple as a plastic one may crack when you clamp hoses
I was looking for spare-parts for my dish-washer Siemens Lady-Plus 25, bought in 1993 !....and I find your request.
I still have the multi-language "Operating Instructions" manual for it....
Still needing one ?
I can of course send you via e-mail, the english pages of it.
After cleaning the air gap thingy my machine works fine again. This thing sits on the left lower back side of the machine (left when you are standing in front of the machine). It is a transparent plastic box with 3 hoses attached (drain hose from pump, drain hose to the outside and water). Inside the box is a black plastic float. If debris gets caught in there the float gets stuck. Solution is to remove the part by pulling the 2 drain hoses out (there is a small black clip holding them in) and unclamp and remove the water hose. Rinse and shake the housing until the float moves freely again and reassemble.
