dishwasher

Hi - I am installing new kitchen and changing position of sink. Access to soil pipe is 3m from sink and will run behind units with one 90 degree bend. At end of run just before soil path the waste will pick up washing machine and dishwasher waste. Would 40mm pipe be sufficient with...

Hi folks My Smeg DI6012 dishwasher is throwing up an E1 error code after a recent power cut. There is no water inside the base (bone dry) and I have tried to reset by doing the "switch on, press program button 4 times etc" routine. But the reset procedure doesn't appear to work. Does anyone...

Hello all experts, apologies for me (Mrs DIY cannot!) for asking this old question, but I can't seem to figure out how to remove the lower panel. Kick panel is removed and now the base of the dishwasher is visible, but for the life of me I can't see how to get the plastic panel off. Laying on...

Last night I loaded the dishwasher as usual and selected the programme (p4), and then it started beeping and the lights for programme 1 and 2 were flashing. So I then tried again I turned the dishwasher off and then back on and set it to p4 and it did the same so I then turned it off again and...

I'm trying, and failing, to install a tabletop dishwasher. I know I need a 'washing machine' valve, which I have, but, what now?! Do I Need to cut the pipe? It seems to be capped. Any advice is appreciated! IMG-20170327-WA0001 by SadieLynne posted 27 Mar 2017 at 10:03 PM

Hi, I have a Zanussi ZDF14001WA dishwasher that is stuck on the 2hr programme which starts as soon as the dishwasher is closed - this usually requires the start button to be pressed. Switching between programmes on the dial doesn't seem to do anything. Just wondering if there are any button...

Just thought I'd post here in the fond hope that it may save someone else some pain and suffering. I recently inherited a little-used and basic Hotpoint DF22 dishwasher from some friends who were re-working their kitchen. Looked tidy, and supposedly in good working order, so I had it all...

Hi, I have a built in dishwasher that is on constant drain and throwing an E1 fault code at me. I realise that this is the aquastop function that's working. Question is, I can't find anywhere that would tell me how to fix. I can't pull it out without destroying half the wall so would prefer...

Miele G692 dishwasher not draining - the inlet/drain light comes on and I find that the area under the silver mesh filter in the base is full of water. When I bail out the excess water and reset the machine it carries on, sometimes until the end of the wash. If I disconnect the waste pipe from...

My Daughter has moved into a flat that has no provision for a Washing Machine. There is space for one, but fitting it would need some trickery with the drain hose. I could fit a new proper waste pipe underneath the units, but it's a lot of work considering it's not my flat. I'd not hesitate if...

Hi All, I'm replacing an old dishwasher that came with the house - it looks like something from the 80s! It's a Cannon Hot Fill 8s. This means that there is a readily available hot water 3/4 BSP inlet hose (and drain). Looking online I can see that there is very little choice for a new hot...

Help please. Red tap icon flashing, would appear the machine as overflowed and is trying to empty itself. Machine has emptied but we can't do anything with it other than switch off at the wall.

Can anyone please help a damsel in distress (not to mention bad temper!). By "help" I pretty much mean please can you explain in idiot terms, in words of two syllables or less and with diagrams. I have a Beko DSFN 1530B dishwasher which has a leaking drain hose. Thinking I was clever I ordered...

Hi guys, 1st post, hope you can help. My indesit integrated dishwasher has had a bit of blockage issues I reckon. Whenever it is switched on a long tone comes on with the no. 1 led highlighted. It then freezes and won't let me do anything. I noticed a lot of water that hadn't drained so set...

Hi folks, I hope you are all well. Please go easy on me - I am an amateur DIY'er and this is about my first planned out plumbing job! With that out of the way, I hope I have done my research correctly but before I start to lift a drill, I would really appreciate it if I could get my 'homework...

Any ideas what this could be? Over past week, we have had a pressure drop from (mixer) Tap in Bathroom? Have checked with Water board, and nothing out of the ordinary and they asked me to check the water pressure coming into the house via downstairs Kitchen Cold tap. All seems normal... it...

Does anyone have any experience of this? Had this last week and remove some of the parts at the bottom and the filter and it "seemed" to work again for a while.. Last night, it came on again with E:15 error and some of the water leaked out of the front? This is obviously a draining issue.. as...

Hi, I have a common problem with my smeg built in dishwasher which is constantly draining even if the door is open. Lights 1 (flashing) and 5 (on) is the error I get. There is no water in the base and I cannot see anything else I can try. I can't see any float that is stuck. There is no sponge...

Hi there, Last summer we had a new kitchen and replaced what was only a 9 month old Slimline Neff Dishwasher with a full size one. I never got round to selling / giving it away, and just kept in the cupboard outside the front of the house. (Its like an old coalstore, so more like outside...

Just moved into my first house! We are desperate for a dishwasher. I've found 47cm of space next to my washing machine for a slimline dishwasher. There is a socket supplying the washing machine in the cupboard which I want to remove to make way for the dishwasher. The socket seems to be surface...
