My dishwasher has got loads of water in the bottom, I ladelled it out and removed the filters etc but couldnt find out how to remove the final one, it looks like I need a star shaped screwdriver?, tried a posi drive but this didnt work. when I switch it on it fills and makes the right noises for a bit and then stops and does a kind of ticking noise intermittantly.

two different models one is lean it back two screws hold the complete base on and you just twist the pump off. the other you can access the pump from below the internal filter on the left one torx screw and you can see if there is anything blocking the pump. regards

dear batties,
Such water filling problems can be generally solved by checking the following

• Inspect the seals for the main tub, float, heating element and blower diffuser
• Check for overfilling
• Inspect the water and drain hoses
• Inspect the door gaskets
• Check the water inlet valve
• Check the pump

• Test the timer motor
• Test the thermostat
• Test the heating element

check filter or drain hose it probably have a dirt,try to fill with water manually and turn on pump to dispossess water,if water not go out and pump work then you have dirt in hose or filter,if pump not work then pump is broken.

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. This issue can be either due to a faulty door latch or door lock switch which is not engaging itself. And, if the door latch will not engage the dishwasher will sense it as open door and will not start the cycle. The light also blinks when the dishwasher detects a no-fill condition. You’ll need to get access to the fill valve by removing left panel, look at back to see where valve is when you get to it remove one of the wires and set meter to ohms setting and put a lead on each tag on valve. The reading you should be about 3.6k ohm if you don’t get a reading then the valve is at fault. I'll also suggest you to check the detergent dispenser solenoid for this issue. Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else post a comment for further assistance.


Thanks

SOURCE: When you switch the dishwasher

Says here the overflow pipe night be blocked and needs to be cleared. When it's cleared if you still get a code "F" and it is still trying to pump dispite no water then remove the side panel and you will more than likely see you have water in the base. Remove the water and run the dishwasher with the side panel off and look for a water leak.
