Brand New Dishwasher install getting antiflood error

[2bkev]

Hi,

just replaced our dishwasher with a new hotpoint FDL570G and I have antiflood error. I found this was the problem by searching online, the power light flashing and the wash light flashing within two minutes of starting a cycle.

I have drain it by dipping the machine back and water has come out. Tried adjusting pressure, checking lower arm and still getting the problem.

Can anyone help?

If it is new (& providing the installation has been done correctly) you should contact the shop where you bought it & claim a replacement/warranty repair.

I removed the old dishwasher and connected new washer pipe to the water outlet . Is that installed correctly? we also follow instructions about the salt and adding water

Well make a warranty claim then...

Why are you worrying about getting a bill if something is wrong with the machine? If you followed the installation instructions then you're done your bit. Water on the base-plate means there is an internal leak someplace...it happens sometimes. By all means post photos, but we won't be able to see where the water is leaking from. And if you go digging around in there yourself then you risk invalidating your warranty altogether. Let the professionals sort it out, that's what guarantees are for.

Rest easy, new machines go wrong all the time...especially Hotpoint
