Make sure the detergent door latch mechanism is clean and moving freely... If it is spotless, replace the dispenser assembly. Help Me Find My Model Number

It may be having water level sensing issues, so it drains to avoid an overflow... break out your multi-meter or call a decent technician

Hello Jack Poole, What I'm getting (here in USA) seems to indicate a UK appliance ... Really does not matter... The base principles remain the same just the "PARTS" search turns into a "SPARES" search. Your unit is complaining about the heater element not functioning... which could be the heater or the logic which drives it... and EVERY CONNECTION in between. Look on your schematic for your heater and logic board part numbers... and search for those... HOPEFULLY you will also find "helpful videos" from the VENDORS... The ones on youtube .. VARY WILDLY (from planet to planet). Hope this helps. https://www.bing.com/search?q=SDD910+dishwasher.+showing+error+A8+sometimes+a10&FORM=EDGNNC&PC=DCTE http://parts.hotpoint.co.uk/shop Hotpoint SDD910 Hoses http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/forumsphpbb3/hotpoint-fdf780-error-t79703.html

I have the same issue how did you fix it?

-That why it's free. -Fix it is more than buy new one Good luck Mai

I have encountered this problem a few times with this particular range of dishwashers and there are a few possible causes. 1.Low water pressure will cause the diswasher to beep during the wash. Check for kinked pipes or blocked inlet valve. 2.The waste hose being pushed too far down the standpipe or the standpipe itself being to low down causing the water to siophin out of the dishwasher. Check your instruction book for correct installation 3. Using poor quality dishwasher tablets can cause over sudding which has the effect of dropping out the pressure switch making the dishwasher think the water level is low 4. An intermitted faulty element can cause this 5. A faulty display board The first 3 you can check yourself but the bottom two i strongly recommend getting a hotpoint engineer to carry out the repair.

It can be a issue of door latch or else, you can check for the any blockage in the door like rack is coming out or the door gasket/seal is bad or damaged.

When you say it won't start, do you mean a) the display is on and it won't respond, or b) it responds as it should, but after you hit the start button it doesn't go any further? If it's b) make sure your water line is turned on. After you hit the start button it needs to make it's waterlevel setpoint to start the recirculation pump (thus shooting water everywhere). If it doesn't fill, then the washer doesn't know to go any further.
