Hotpoint Dishwasher not working - FDW60

dishwasher always full of water at the end of cycle

It is likely the flood switch at base of dishwasher has activated due to a leak.

You will have to dry the leak and then try again.
Make sure the mains power is shut when you are working on the dishwasher to avoid electrocution.

i have had this dishwasher sdw60 for 18 months and it just keeps beeping, i have cleaned it ,turned it off at the mains it just dont wont to work. please help.

pump or heater

This is a blocked pump,Strip down pump and remove blockage.

This appliance should be on warranty; call seller.

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

Tom, If your dishwasher is still under warranty, best thing will be to contact Hotpoint's service center for repair the problem.

Not heating, check element and thermal fuse/thermostate. Regards Advisor

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
