Hi,
I have a 6 year old Bosch Exxcel Dishwasher which i'm really hoping to save from being scrapped.
The problem is that the dishwasher is getting stuck at the end of the wash cycle and not moving onto the rinse cycle. The time on the countdown timer is always 31 minutes when it gets stuck.
The pots always appear washed well but have a little residue on the top from not being rinsed I presume.
I've also noticed that the timer seems to get to 31 minutes quicker than normal.
I opened the door when the machine was stuck on 31 minutes and the power stayed on with the pump still making a noise in the base of the machine. I poured some water into the base to check and the pump cleared it out of the base and continued to stay on.
I have also been able to smell a slight burning rubber smell.
So it seems the pump in the base is stuck switched on at the end of the wash cycle and isn't allowing the machine to get to the rinse cycle.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
