Our Hotpoint Aquarius dishwasher initially had the Eco & Prewash lights flashing & standing water inside. We then turned it on in the hope that the standing water would drain, which it did. It then filled back up from where it usually drains & appeared to be heating up the water....but the rotating arms are now no longer rotating & something started to smell like it was burning out. I've managed to get the drier to drain but don't know where to start fixing it!

dishwasher always full of water at the end of cycle

I had the problem of flashing lights and water did not pump out.Found a piece of bacon in drain pump wedged between impellor and pump body...cleaned it out...problem solved..

pump or heater

Check pump is running

I had the same problem with my Hotpoint Aquarius the eco and fast light flashing, it would go through the pre wash cycle and stop.
I cleaned the filters etc; and it still didn’t work.
I turned the machine off and unplugged it at the mains,
I drained all the water, turned the machine on the side and took the bottom off, I removed the drain pump off the bottom (this was held on with a single screw after taking the screw out slightly turn it to one side as its like a bayonet fit on a light bulb also remove the wire connection and a rubber drain pipe)
Once the pump was removed I could clearly see the impellor it was very tight and I couldn’t spin it after a closer examination I could see a foreign object jamming it I removed this with a pair of tweezers, replaced the pump and put it all back together and it now works perfectly.
I hope this can be of some help.

hotpoint dwf50 will not start, the fast wash and prewash buttons are flashing together.

Eco light flashing, and refuses to do any of the other programs

I too had this problen today. Printed off a manual from the Hotpoint website. Very helpful troubleshoot section. Anyway, flashing eco and fast lights and beeping sound indicates 'water feed pipe blocked' You need to check the water inlet connections on your tap.However, when we pulled it out we noticed the blue water inlet pipe was slightly kinked. Straightened this out and hey presto! It works fine again. How this happens when its worked ok for 18 months will never know but still. Try it! hope this was helpful...shewoo
