Hi everyone,
My whirlpool ADG750 has recently decided to die (I think), tries to start a cycle then pauses and starts beeping with the green indicator light flashing 6 times.

I've tried cleaning all the filters and pipes but it's not any better.

Does anyone have any ideas before I resort to buying a new one?

Thanks

Leanne

Test Mode


Make sure the appliance is empty of water before running Diagnostics as it does not pump out before starting to fill and therefore you could overfill the appliance.
Open the door and set the program to the first program. (Normally rinse).
Turn the power off.
Press and hold the start button and while holding turn the power on.
After a little while the start button will flash, release the button.
Press the start button once and close the dishwasher door.
The machine will now run through a diagnostic routine.
If memory serves me right it takes about 20 mins.
The machine will stop during diagnostics if an error is found and will display the error code. If no error is found it will complete the diagnostics and end the programme.

To exit diagnostics at any time just press and hold the start button till the programme is cancelled
 
Did this and was still flashing 6 times so I know the problem is: F6. 6 Flashes. Water valve (WV1) is switched on but flow meter (FM) senses no impulses (less than 10 impulses in 10 secs) and the water indicator (WI) is at a low level
Water Valve Closed. Water inlet hose blocked.
Water inlet valve (WV1) defective. Flow meter (FM) defective (leads to FM failure)

So now my question is: is this something I can fix myself and if so how?

Cheers
