Hi All -
I have a Smeg Dishwasher model DF612SE (Type: 10054, S/N: 41222 1644 0), that all of a sudden last night decided not to "wash".
At first I thought (as I had seen water collect at the bottom inside) that it was blocked, so opened up the "grate" and cleared out that area. After resetting the programme and starting the cycle again, I heard it empty (good!), then fill (good), then nothing except a hum of like a electric motor trying to work. After a few minutes, I cancelled the cycle and opened the door again - I got a faint smell of "burning" (kind of like when you had a scalextrix car and held it while trying to make it go! ). I tried this a few more times but had the same issue. NB: no error codes show up - just shows as if the cycle is running as normal.
What's the verdict? I am ok to have a go opening the dishwasher but not sure where to look or does it just sound like the "motor" has gone and I need to get someone to replace?
Thanks in advance,
Darren
