Free down load of a manual,it claims to have the circuit diagram in it.

It's blocked (check for dirt)

its "malfunction of temp sensor or heating element"so it is either the heating element or temp senser.is faulty test and replace the faulty part

This is for the amount of rinse aid that gets dispensed. The harder your water, the higher the setting should be. If you use a water softener, adjust the number downward. Start low and make sure that dishes are drying properly, if they are not, increase the number slowly until everything dries properly. That way, you never use more of the rinse aid than you need.

Coming into the dishwasher or trying to heat the water ? Could be the heater element is defective.

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. To start with check the water inlet valve which is located behind the lower access panel on the left or right side of the Dishwasher. If the water inlet valve is bad you have to replace it, also check the main water line for clogs/obstructions. If still the issue is not resolved then it's a bad float switch and needs to be replaced. Please accept the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.

Thanks

Error 4 is overfill. Disconnect power and dry water completely, there is an access panel to reach the bottom of the machine.

If you get problem again, then the overfill switch may need replacement.

Well what is happening is that as the cycle goes through, when most likely the motor, or the Motor drive electronics, is switched into service it draws too much current because it is faulty, and blows the breaker.
you will need to troubleshoot this issue and see where the problem is.

Above is your manual to help you troubleshoot. of course the other option is to contact a reputable service center and ask for a "Quote" for repair.

Sounds like water is not getting hot. Check during wash that water is getting hot, if not heater or thermostat has gone.

thereis a float switch in the pan it is usualy a plastic inverted cup like thing there is an electrical switch connected to this usualy by a plunger it is either out of adjustment the float may be gunked up or the switch is just faulty now

The element has blown

This is a typical Anti Flood system activation. This system activates when water leaks onto the floor of the machiene due to a leak fault (pipe/hose clamp/ partly blocked pipe). The machiene automatically switches to pump out mode and stops water inlet. The anti flood system is a polystireen float / micro switch at the base of the machiene floor. Dry the floor and drectify the leak and it should work.
