Hotpoint Ultima SDW80 powers on but won't start

Hi,

I have a Hotpoint Ultima SDW80 dishwasher which has suddenly decided not to start. It is powered on (the LCD screen is on) but when I press start it just beeps as normal and then nothing happens. The remainging time, 2h25m, just flashes on screen.

I've checked the filters, the water pipe, the filter in the water pipe, etc.

I wonder if perhaps it thinks the door is open but I've tried firmly closing it, etc. I can only assume the door close sensor is in the latch as I can't find one anywhere else.

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks a lot

Simon

SOURCE: LOC code flashing on washing machine

Pressing the options and select buttons simultaneously for 5-10 seconds worked. For me it happened this way: on the first attempt, with the indicator lights already "timed-out" and off, pressing and holding the options and select buttons simultaneously for 5-10 seconds caused the lights to come back on and flash the "LOC" code again. But holding the options and select buttons together for 5-10 seconds a second time caused the indicator lights to stop flashing, and allowed me to start the cycle.

SOURCE: GE Spectra XL44 Gas Oven, flashing "Locked Door". Can't use oven or close door

I had the same problem happen tonight. I have an XL44 self-cleaning gas range. We unplugged it for several minutes and pressed 'cancel' a bunch of times--neither worked. We finally lucked out--opened the oven door and pressed a black button on the upper left side of the front of the oven. It turned out the flashing words and unlocked our door. Weird. There was nothing in the manual about this...

3) Close and latch the door
4) Press the cancel button (the circle with the triangle in it)

SOURCE: my bosch dishwasher beeps everytime we close the door.

Better switch of till you are ready with full load. Otherwise you have to trace the beeper and disconnect it.

Hotpoint ultima DW stuck on cycle does't appear to be heating either

Sounds as though you have a fault in the heating system, it could be a short in the wiring to the heater or it may be the heater itself which as fault. While the machine is waiting to heat the water it will not advance through the program

My Hotpoint HDA3600R00CC suddenly won't start. Checked the breaker and it's fine

My not starting do you imply all the lights are out or the lights are on but nothing happens when the START is pressed.

Generally the door interlock switch could be a problem if it does not start. If lights are out then the controller is out or the power supply.

Check the parts assembly for idea of parts involved.

Good luck.
