Help please - dishwasher not working

5 replies

It's an integrated Beko of unknown age. It's just making the noises to heat up the water but no water is going into the dishwasher. Have removed and cleaned / checked all filters. Can see underneath and there's no visible leak.

What else can I do? Is it likely to be worth repairing?

Have you taken the spinny arms off and cleaned them? They can get blocked. Is an error code coming up? If so Google it.

No error code visible (no display unit). Will check the arms.

I don't know, but it might possibly be that the water level sensor thinks it is already full, or the filling valve has failed. If so it will need a mender. Integrated appliances are extra time and work to undo and pull out, so I'd guess a repair cost would start around £100, and it may not be worthwhile unless you are very fond of it. I don't know Bekos, but they seem to make a lot of models and change the designs often. If it is the electric filling valve, it might be a common part. Look on the top edge of the door, there may be identifying model, date and serial numbers stamped on it.

Are you sure the filling hose is not kinked, and the water tap has not been turned off?

Had simular with by BEKO dishwasher at weekend. Checked waste pipe not blocked hoses not kinked etc. Cleaned arms. Mine sounded like working not filling with water either. Looked online suggested migHTC be water in based. Which was setting of flood protection.
Tipped back 45 degree angle to see if empty water out of base.
Quite easy a bit of water came out allowing float thingy to reset..
Then started working again.

Dishwasher not filling again after tipping back to empty excess water. Had to lay machine on its back and take base of fun (4 screws) to look for any where that could be leaking or any obvious issues. I had a loose hose to put back in place only held by clip.
Working perfectly now.
