Look for the fill float on a corner of the unit. Does it move freely? Is it waterlogged? This signals filled and empty depending where in the cycle it is.

They are often part of the element, so check for resistance in the element and this should tell you if gone or not. It might be worth checking if parts are still available for your model, as you say It is an older model

Are the spray arms turning? check for blocked jets at the very end of the spray arms, blocked with food deposits or paper from lids, or fruit pips etc. Or may be vanes on wash pump rotor have stripped off because a piece of broken glass or pot has found its way into the pump chamber - that might account for the funny noise. If the vanes have stripped off, the motor may well turn but too fast, and not pump. sometimes you can remove the internal filters and covers to examine the pump rotor - otherwise remove the pump assembly completely and check. Not a job for the faint hearted on this model lol isolate supply and remove plug first.

check water temperture might be to low might turn the hot water temperture up, water temperture for best wash is 120 degree

I've had this issue with my thermal fuse blowing. If the water gets too hot, this will trip. If you have a meter and know how to handle yourself around electricity (power off and verified), then you can pull the liner out to get to the electronics. (I don't know the exact method for the Hotpoint). Follow the power lines and you'll find the fuse. Mine has two wires connected to tabs on a little card. If the fuse shows open on the meter, then you can get another for just a few bucks off your favorite auction site, or local appliance parts store (a few bucks more, but immediate delivery). If you have the hot water heater temp high, then you might want to make sure you don't use the "heat water" function, otherwise the fuse will blow again.Please let us know if this helps, it will benefit others in your situation.

If the machine switched to demo by itself, you may have a software issue and will need a new board. Try calling Hotpoint as they will be aware of the problem. Some boards can be re-programmed, but I guess they will just replace it. Electrolux had exactly the same issue a while ago. If YOU accidentally turned on demo, Deactivate Power Off at the mains. Now press and hold the On/Off button together with the Start/Cancel button. While pressing, power up the appliance at the mains. Keep the buttons pressed down until 'D off' appears in the display.

well models and serial numbers are all well and good but there can be no help until you tell us what make it is

Possibly not getting sufficient amount of water. Faulty water valve would cause that

you gotta send the full model number,open the door and look at the very front of dw where the door closes into the machine,usually the tag is on the left side at 9 oclock,first are you positive that's where it's leaking remove the bottom kick panel and see if the motor or anything isn't leaking there too.if it is the door gasket it's an easy fix

HI the reason for your water not being pumped out Is that there is a blockage in the water outlet pipe, try blowing down the pipe if you cant then there is a blockage in the pipe or in the pump motor as far as the ball is concerned there should be an explanation if necessary go to the local washer repair shop an ask them for advice as I don't have a service manual for this machine, I hope that helps a little eric

Empty out th bottom tray - siphon it , use sponge, whatever, Then clean out the drain and snake out the tubing in there to get rid of any debris that is causing a clog in the works.

run with a pint of vinegar only on HOT .. no dishes ..

There should be an upper spray arm to wash the upper rack, it may be stuck. Look at its position, run the machine a few seconds and see if it moved. The spray nozzles on the arm often get clogged with food particles. the pipe feeding the spray arm has to extend when you pull the rack out and retracts when you push it in. Make sure it works properly and has not disconnected.
