Whirlpool ADG7560/1 Dishwasher

[teknocat]

Hi.

Machine starts filling, makes a few gurgles and then indicates program complete after a few minutes. have tried cleaning filters, flushing machine with boiling water, cleaning spray arms.

After running diagnostics am getting a 5 flash fault.

Seems to be blocked spray arms or circulation pump.

Is the circulation pump the same pump as the drain pump?
Which panel/s do I have to remove to access the pump?
What should I look out for?

There is both a circulation motor and drain pump. Very few dishwashers have a common motor for both applications.
To get to access to major components remove the side panels. Then lie the machine on its back & remove the baseplate. All is revealed
