Siemens dishwasher not running.

Check - Bosch Siemens Neff Presostat , this part tell your machine when to stop filling/empty with watter

Sounds like the pump is faulty

Please check the fill valve

Most likely the smell is coming from a motor that is having a hard time turning, so it's overheating. Don't run it or it might catch fire!

this may seem like a stupid question but is there definately water a supply to the dishwasher, has it worked where it is before?

Hello, How long has your dishwasher been do this? Have you washed dish's in it? Also, these German made dishwasher run on less than 2 1/2 gallons of water. These German manufactured dishwasher machines run really quite. Because of the German water conservancies laws. They limit the amount of water dishwasher and washing machine can use. Also, there is no storage hot water system in there homes, it on demand hot water. You can't hear the motor running and about the only thing one can hear is maybe the water washing the dishes.


Now, the water at the bottom of the dishwasher, if the drain isn't connected up under is the sink drain and trap area or the garbage disposable in the sink. but some place lower on the drain pipe. You will not have a spiffing effect on the the bottom of the dishwasher, it the same with washing machines. One the discharge pump starts sucking air, it will not drain the dishwasher. The siffen effect works if the water is below the outlet for the drain. Example: Home owner have the new washing running and continue fill with water. Why, because the drain pipe end is below the the bottom of the washing machine tub. It fill up with water and siffen action continues emptying the tube will it still filling. One heck of a water bill.

First check the inlet water flow into the machine. There is a strainer attached to this. If it is clogged water filling into the machine will be delayed!

Also check whether using the same wash program as you were doing earlier. There can not be any other fault aprt from this. i presume the wash quality is good.

Heance clean all the water inlet and outlet for free flow.

Hi, Your dishwasher may pre-heat the water. If so, and if the water entering the dishwasher is cool, the heater may take up to half an hour to heat the water. To avoid the wait, increase the incoming water temperature before turning on the dishwasher. Do that by running the kitchen sink faucet until the water runs hot. Or increase the temperature of the hot water to the entire house at the hot water heater.
Timers don't often fail. But if every other part of the dishwasher seems to be working properly and the timer knob seems to be stuck in one place--doing one function continuously--the timer may be at fault. Dishwasher timers can't be repaired. If yours is defective, replace it.

Replace the water fill valve, it's leaking.

The long cycle is caused by the heater not heating the water or not having enough water in it to heat. It is normally a slow fill valve in the unit. The best way to check is to start a cycle and let it fill to see how much water is in it. If you add a little water to it and it pumps better you will know you have a water supply problem.
