We have a Candy CDI2012/E-02 32900347 1330 3315 dishwasher from around 2013 that once stopped working about 3 years ago. A constant beeping signaled the problem after trying to initiate the washing cycle. Not remembering the details, replacing the controller card (~€50 ebay) fixed the problem at that time.
Now we had a problem again, similar to the one above. Once any of the programs was started, the dishwasher would first drain any remaining water (if detected any), then fill for a few seconds, then start draining/refilling again for about 3 times in a row until the controller detected there was something wrong. Again, everything stopped with a constant beeping. Replacing the controller card did not help this time.
There were actually two independent problems: We noticed that the inlet water hose was kinked. Thus, only little water would enter. Straightening the hose did not solve the problem, though.
We then thought it may be the flow meter. But it is extremely simple in this machine, turned nicely and did not seem to be the culprit.
However, we noticed some deposits in the water reservoir that also connects to the inside of the dishwasher. These calcareous deposits apparently clogged one of the channels. This may have induced some pressure difference, which the controller apparently interpreted as some water level problem. Unmounting the water reservoir with the built-in impeller, dissolving the clogging with toilet descaling agent solved the problem: the dishwasher is working again.
Actually, no electronic parts had to be replaced.
UNIT STARTS FILLS WITH WATER WASHES BUT KEEPS RECYCLING ON WASH CYCLE. COULD CONTROL MODULE NEED TO BE REPLACED?
top drawer leaks when draining. Does not appear to lead during the filling or running. Water appears to come from some of the holes ont he bottom of the drawer. cleaned out the drain, I see nothing obvious but am not sure where to go from here.
