Hotpoint Dishwashers - Popular Questions, Answers, Tips & Manuals
Have a hotpoint aquarius dishwasher
Won't work powers up
Red light comes on with salt
2 nd red light come on showing X
What is the X?
Please
Here's what you can do to address this issue:
- Check the Salt Level: Ensure that the salt reservoir is filled with dishwasher salt. The dishwasher needs salt to soften the water and improve the cleaning performance. If the salt level is low or empty, refill the reservoir with dishwasher salt.
- Check the Salt Dispenser Cap: Make sure that the salt dispenser cap is securely closed. If it's not closed properly, it can cause the "X" symbol to appear on the display.
- Reset the Dishwasher: Try resetting the dishwasher by turning it off at the mains power supply for a few minutes, then turning it back on. This can sometimes clear error codes and restore normal operation.
- Check for Blockages: Ensure that the salt dispenser and its inlet are free from any blockages or obstructions that could prevent salt from dissolving properly.
- Consult the Manual: If the issue persists, refer to the dishwasher's user manual for troubleshooting steps specific to your model. The manual may provide additional information about error codes and how to resolve them.
If none of these steps resolve the issue and the "X" symbol continues to appear on the display, it may indicate a more significant problem with the dishwasher that requires professional diagnosis and repair. In such cases, contacting Hotpoint customer service or a qualified appliance technician for assistance is recommended.

Hotpoint LTB 4M116 door catch plate snapped. How do I remove and replace with a new catch plate
Hi there, I am from the UK so model numbers vary but all basically the same. Do not fear it is simple really.
You need to take the door from it's hinges first. It will either have screws or bolts to the door or frame of the machine.
Now you have the door dismantled and in your hands.
place upside down and you will see screws ??? they will be situated around the door ?? the door comes in two parts and the glass is sandwiched between the two parts. ( Take photo if in need ) you will see see a metal shaft and spring where your handle will fit. All the best and Happy Christmas from the UK

My Hotpoint Dishwasher won't drain. It has about 2-3 of water in bottom. What can I do?
A rug cleaner or a wet dry vac are excellent choices to empty water from a dishwasher. Look at the float like device that is on a corner of the unit. Does it move freely up and down? Is it waterlogged? Carefully clean the shaft if you can reach it, otherwise move it up and down to clear the shaft. You should also hear a faint click at either end of travel. One for full and the other for empty (On drain).

Why won't my hotpoint dishwasher draing the water?
Are we talking a lot or a little? If the unit is not draining at all then there might be something stuck in the drain pump impellor stopping it from turning at all, or stopping it running as quickly as it should so doesn't drain all the water. Is the drain outlet too high? This can cause the drain pump to struggle to reach the head height, also, water can run back from the drain pipework if blockage or height too high
