As predicted. The NEFF dishwasher has now thrown in the towel. Still awaiting hob delivery.

Well not quite.

Symptoms were only the pump was running even with the door open but that was it. Tap diagram on control unit was illuminated suggesting blockage in or out.

Root round the strainer at the bottom found something that loogs like a small clear silicon medal. Pulled it up and the machine gasped for air. Put it back together and closed the door and switched on. Voila, it worked !. Feeling rather smug but within a few minutes it was back to bust mode.

Done the Youtube bit and there is a suggestion that a lot of problems come from behind a nearside panel where a lot of the control for water in and out go on. Plenty of signs of 15 years of congealment within plastic components that look like syphons and pressure/level control gizzmos. It was excrement or bust. Parts removed, its not hard and into cleaning mode with soda and sink cleaner. Finally got all cleared out and a flexible drain pipe coming from the main sump was choked with all sorts of carp.

A small nail controlled with a magnet was a great idea for agitating muck in small places in the clear plastic tubes.

All put back together and now running a 50 deg cycle. Fingers crossed.
