If you disconnect the drain pump and check water has not got past the impeller into the internal parts of the pump. Or I have found a silted up bottle half way along the drain pipe attached to the back of the cabinet if you disconnect it and give it a good clean it could be the problem

Possibly the mains suppressor, it may have got wet or be a coincidence that it's failed now

If you look right by the door lock (on the door itself) there should be something like SGS352GB/01 etched into the metalwork this is the model number If there is water out of the feed pipe then possibly a problem with the inlet valve it is right at the back and can usually be accessed...

Quite possibly the start relay is faulty it is a black box behind the fascia panel

A new control board is £140 they need configuring. You might be able to get a used one and reconfigure it to your machine

I personally have not repaired the tracking on a pcb. It may be worth looking for a new control board.

If there is a speed control board in the bottom right hand side try to disconnect it and have a good look I have often found a small dry joint on the board and been able to put a dot of solder on the joint and it has come back to life - i would reccomend anyone to change brushes as soon as it is...

It is possible the new pcb is not programmed, if you change the main pcb at the bottom you may require a specialist tool to programme it

I am not 100% about the lights flashing generally the vertical lights flashing denote an error code (but all of the lights flashing is not one) With the machine going for hours that was likely an out of balance load - it can occur when too much is in the machine and knotted up or if single...

Next time the lights flash make a note of the ones and post - often machines have error codes and they can point towards a fault

Yes that's what I meant :) That's what I thought, my employer is stating I must try to "fix" any Ip breaches I see and is disiplining if I miss any (if they do a follow up visit) even though I haven't worked on any of that part of the installation.

Would I be expected to repair any gaps because I have seen them or just inform the customer they are there - also that goes with the other questions about the iso switch and the main incoming supply enclosures

Ip breaches On a fuse board. Eg wire cutouts above and below are a standard size - if it was cut out but only a 1.5 mm cable was put in would the hole be a ip breech? On the iso switch gaps around the edge and 1mm copper showing ? Do you have to ring the dno to sort it ? Problems with...

It flashes from the moment it's turned on and does not reset at all

I was thinking that the flashes could mean that the control board has not been programmed

It was meant to be a pre programmed board -- A slug had got into the underneath of the dishwasher and blew the control board LOL

Could be a faulty RCD

in my experiance these types of elements dont fail often - if you have a meter you can check the resistance of it - should be around 30 Ohms and an insulation test should be 1000mOhms ( although anything over 1m Ohms is acceptable)

The appliance could have a blockage in the machine - usually on the side of the machine you have a water metering tank it can get crap backfilling into the tank and causes the machine to overfill this can leak into the base and cause the float device to activate and the machine then goes into a...

A bit of time to dry out might do the trick -- Id recommend you check the filter monthly and carry out a 90 degree wash 4-6 monthly just to get rid of any excess soap from the machine and stop it smelling
