Smeg dishwasher

ozzie908 · 18 Sep 2009

Hi there anyone have any idea why my dishwasher fills the base and not the tank? it then trips the anti flood device and all it will do is empty and then come up with E3 I think which is something to do with water inlet ???
Any help would be appreciated.

You have a leak somewhere. When the water leaks in to the base it activates the float switch for the anti-flood device which causes the drain pump to run continuously and the water inlet is shut. Our BOSCH has the same problem. You need to find the source of the leak inside the machine.

I found the cause of the problem the main wash pump has gone the water just runs through it and into the base the machine never fills up as the tray gets full and the it just pumps out. Ahh well it was worth a shot have now replaced the machine. Many thanks for your help though.

NP. We have been told ours needs a new wash pump too. Part is £140! The machine is only 3 years old too.

I have to add I am very dissapointed that a machine costing as much as these Smegs do are breaking down so soon after the warranty has run out mine was not even 5 years old Ahh well live and learn.
