Hello & Welcome to FixYa

The fix will be replacement of timer motor, that will cost you around $120 if you do it yourself, so the unit might cost you around $200, think if it's worth for you or not. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

It is possible that the machine does not start off the cycle because there are errors or feedback from the inputs. For the program to start up the main program controller must initiate the INLET/PUMP MOTOR/DRAIN to work when it is commanded .If this does not happen then the voltage at these points must be checked or the fault relates to no voltage/drive from the controller. This means the controller is a suspect.

If the water flows then the flow should be good, if not the inlet valve is bad or there is dirt in the filter. Also check the flow at the inlet of the water line. What is most important for the motor to start functioning is that the door switch must be ON when the door is shut or this will be an error for starting the motor. The water pressure must be good and the spraying must be seen to be good. If there is low pumping or pressure then the spray arms will not turn around to inject with pressure. If so the pump must be checked for clogging.

Finally after the wash the drain valve will be activated, the water is allowed to come in to rinse and then finally the drain valve/pump activated so as to drain off all the water.

Make sure that a fault in any of the cycle will relate to the specified action, so check the command from the program module and then the executing device be it the valve or motor or pump.

sound like the heating element has gone bad making the gfi trip

Please give name brand and model number first.

The simplest solution is to locate the buzzer and disconnect it. There is an 8 second timer that could also be disconnected.

you don't fill the gap. There needs to be some clearance for the door to be able to swing open without contacting the underside of the counters. You can always decrease the gap a little by using the adjustable stands on the bottom of the unit. The unit will come with a kickplate that can adjust to multiple heights.

It depends upon the material you are trying to repair but Araldite or any good quality two part epoxy will suffice to fill the hole. Ensure the area is dry and clean then build up the repair . Larger holes will require multi additions of epoxy.

Put in olle dishwasher parts and where you live . This should come up with shops that do the spares

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Cars and Trucks category. This appears to be a Dutch Maker, we are in North America. There is some help here, but I don't see the wiring for that model, although there is a parts manual. The link may work better for where you live. https://www.google.com/search?q=elettrobar+e35h+wiring+diagram+pdf ..

These error messages both point to a sensor problem. Error 12.1 This error is related to the boiler temperature sensor. Consider the following: Look for a short circuit in the sensor. Inspect the cables and plugs for any issues. Ensure the sensor is correctly connected.If needed, replace the boiler temperature sensor. Error 22.2: This error pertains to the tank temperature sensor. Possible causes include: Short circuit in the sensor. Cable failure or plug failure. Sensor not properly connected. You may need to check the sensor wiring, connections, and replace the temperature sensor if necessary.

The date of manufacture is determined by the SERIAL NUMBER on the appliance. This dishwasher was manufactured by Whirlpool. The following link explains how to determine when it was manufactured:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r3576437-determining_the_age_of_your_whirlpool_ap

The serial number is usually located somewhere around the door opening. The first two numbers in the serial number identify the WEEK it was manufactured (52 weeks in a year). The second DIGIT in the serial represents the YEAR it was manufactured.

If you have difficulty determining the manufacture date, please post back with your serial number and I will assist you. I hope you find this information helpful.

There is normally a D-shape that has to be in the right orientation on the spindle shaft. Some have a small recessed Allen screw or a way to adjust. They are all a tight fit. ..
