Many dishwasher users are faced with a strange problem, the machine seems to be working, the washing program is running, but at the same time it either does not wash the dishes at all, or it washes completely unsatisfactorily. It would be easier if the machine would give some kind of system error, but it turns out that the dishwasher "does not know" about the breakdown and continues to work. V this case the user's task is to figure out what is the reason for this behavior of the equipment and find a solution to the problem - this is what we will do, and we will describe the result in the article.

Understand the symptoms and causes of failure

It is quite difficult to draw a line between the symptoms when or stopped washing it at all. We will consider them together, since the nature of such errors often turns out to be the same. What happens in this situation with the dishwasher?

1. The washing program starts, goes on and ends, and at the exit the dishes not only remain dirty, they hardly get wet.
2. After working out the program, the dishes are wet and completely dirty.
3. Dishwasher works in a specific mode, but the dishes are washed unsatisfactorily.

Important! If the above symptoms appear repeatedly, it is imperative to observe how the dishwasher executes the washing program and note any oddities.

In this case, the main negative factor will be that the dishes remain dirty. But you need to understand that time has been spent, electricity, water, your nerves, after all. As a result, it turns out that this breakdown is even worse than if the dishwasher simply did not turn on - there are more harmful consequences. So, what causes the above symptoms?

• These or those user errors, we will talk about them a little later.
• Miscellaneous problems associated with water supply.
• The impossibility of normal circulation of water inside the dishwasher.
• Difficulties with the collection of dishwashing detergent.
• Breaking heating element, in the event that the car does not have a temperature sensor.
• Breakage of the spray arm (impeller).

The reason lies in user error

According to the masters of the world's leading service centers, the main reasons for the fact that the dishwasher does not wash the dishes are the various user errors that they make during the operation of the dishwasher. The most common errors are as follows.

1. The dishwasher is not cleaned on time, or the user does not clean it at all.
2. The user puts the dishes in the baskets incorrectly.
3. The user pours detergent into the wrong compartment of the cuvette, or uses unacceptable detergents.

Much has been said about the need to periodically clean the dishwasher on the pages of our site, but users stubbornly do not do this. Cleaning is required at least 2-3 times a year, and with intensive use of the machine once every 3 months.

For your information! The dishwasher is cleaned not only with the help of chemistry, but also manually, if cleaning in only one way will be of little use.

You can find out in the instruction manual for your dishwasher or in the article of the same name on our website. In addition to cleaning, it is important to put the dishes in the baskets correctly. Experts note the following mistakes people make when placing dishes in the dishwasher:

• incorrectly lay out the dishes in the basket;
• put large items in the upper basket, and small items in the lower;
• put individual items on the bottom of the dishwasher tank, next to the rocker;
• stack the dishes so that they touch the detergent drawer.

Each of these errors leads to at least a poor quality of washing dishes, and at the most to a breakdown of the moving element or the valve of the detergent cuvette. It is also a gross mistake to use invalid means. Some people, in an effort to save money, pour all sorts of rubbish into the car, thinking that this will help wash the dishes. In our opinion, the use of homemade powders and rinses is acceptable, but they must be prepared according to proven recipes and use safe chemicals.

In particular, it is unacceptable to use instead of detergent mustard powder. Already after the first wash, the nozzles of the rotating rocker will become clogged with mustard and dry up. After that, if they are not cleaned, the next dishwashing will be more than unsuccessful.

Problems with water inlet

Another reason for a dishwasher not washing dishes is a problem with the inlet valve. Everything is simple here, washing is impossible without water. But why does the machine continue to execute the program if it has not taken in water, why does the error not work and the wash does not stop? The fact is that on some models of dishwashers, water level sensors do not work correctly, or the connection between the control unit and the sensor is broken. As a result, the machine washes dishes without water.

Important! If the machine works without water, this is fraught with consequences for the heating element, because it can simply burn out.

If you suspect that something like this is happening to you, listen to the machine while it is running. Usually it is difficult not to hear the bay and the drain of water, because a characteristic murmur is heard. If you see that water does not enter the dishwasher, start acting immediately:

• interrupt the washing program;
• check if there is water in the water supply;
• check if the water supply to the dishwasher is turned off;
• check the operation of the electrical and mechanical parts of the filling valve.

To check and repair a valve, you must first find it. Usually the inlet valve is located in the front left corner of the dishwasher, but it happens that it is placed on the right or even at the back.

Unscrew the front decorative panel dishwasher, we find the inlet hose, which is screwed to the valve. We do the following.

1. Turn off the water and unscrew the hose, and then the valve itself.
2. We take a multimeter and set the toggle switch to minimum value Ohm.
3. We connect the probes of the multimeter to the contacts of the filling valve.
4. If the multimeter shows a value from 500 to 1500, the valve is in good condition; if 300 or less, the valve must be replaced.
5. If the valve's electrical is OK, but it still doesn't work, then check the float switch for clogged dirt - this often happens.
6. After fixing or replacing the valve, screw it into place along with the hose and turn on the water.

For your information! The valve can be cleaned of dirt by soaking it in alcohol.

Problems with water circulation, withdrawal of funds

Water may normally be drawn into the dishwasher, but this does not mean that it will come into contact with the dishes. In order for powerful jets of water to hit plates, glasses, forks and other utensils, it is necessary that the circulation pump works properly. It is thanks to him that water under pressure enters the rocker, and through its small holes rushes to the dishes, knocking dirt off it. If the circulation pump stops working, a big problem arises in which the machine does not wash the dishes.

What we can do? First of all, we must get to circulation pump.

• We disconnect the dishwasher from electricity, unscrew the hoses and pull it out of the niche in which it was built.
• We spread several rags on the floor, which should absorb water from the machine.
• We put the car on the rags with the back wall down, we need to get to the pallet.
• We disconnect the front decorative panel, and then all the wires connecting the pallet and the main body.
• We pull the pallet towards us and remove it, in the very center there will be a circulation pump.
• We check its contacts with a multimeter as described above, but if the winding has broken through, then it will be difficult to do anything - you will have to change it.

Important! The dishwasher circulation pump is quite an expensive item, so in order not to risk entrusting its diagnosis to a professional.

Quite often, the quality of washing dishes deteriorates sharply due to the fact that the machine cannot pick up the product from the cuvette. This problem may occur not through the fault of the user, but through the fault of the manufacturer. Often, on Chinese-made machines, the valves of the pill compartment are not adjusted as needed. From hot water The plastic expands and the valve sticks. As a result, the tablet does not dissolve, and the dishes are poorly washed. To solve the problem, you can either replace the detergent drawer, or fit the edges of the valve with fine emery.

Broken impeller or heating element

All modern dishwashers are equipped with temperature sensors, but this element was absent in older dishwashers. If you have just such a machine, then keep in mind that if the heating element fails, it will not give an error, but will continue to wash the dishes cold water. The problem is solved by replacing the heating element.

Also, the dishwasher will stop washing dishes if it breaks the rocker. If the rotating rocker hits any object (located incorrectly in the dishwasher tank), it may fly off or even burst, because it is made of flimsy plastic. The rocker cannot be repaired, especially if the mount is broken, you need to change it.

In conclusion, we note that if the dishwasher refuses to perform its main function - to wash the dishes, then this means that you need to immediately start looking for the cause of such a "disgrace". There are several main reasons, and we tried to talk about all of them at least a little. Happy repair!

It happens that the work of even the highest quality equipment does not bring perfect result. Speaking of, they can upset dirty dishes with food debris and numerous soap streaks. Such troubles can be caused by both breakdowns and operational violations, so let's look at each option.

A good half of the reasons for poor work results are its misuse. I advise you not to neglect reading the instruction manual.

If the appliance does not wash dishes well, first eliminate the following:

• the presence of dried food and leftovers on the plates. If you do not remove all this before loading, you can not count on perfect cleanliness at all. This fad is indicated by almost all manufacturers of this type of equipment. So it is better to observe it, no matter how lazy;
• you choose the wrong washing mode- say, a baking sheet after frying a goose requires a long high-temperature wash - a short, economical cycle will not help here. To avoid mistakes, again, I advise you to read the instruction manual;
- an incorrect arrangement of dishes, accessories, or too much of them placed inside can play a cruel joke. In this matter, the manufacturer's recommendations are also followed. In addition, dirtier dishes should always be lower than clean ones;
• wrong choice of chemicals- if you choose the wrong amount and type of cleaning agent, you can expect poor-quality work of the dishwasher. It makes sense to adjust the amount of rinse aid, cleaner or try another brand. Practice shows that the choice of one or another means depends on the operating conditions of the equipment and is usually selected empirically, so go for it;
• regenerating salt enters the chamber. In this case, unpleasant whitish stains will remain on the dishes. Most often, this happens through the fault of the user: the lid of the salt edema was not tightly closed, the composition accidentally woke up at the bottom of the chamber, or even got into the wrong compartment by mistake. It would be better to check each item if you still encounter such a problem.

Consequences of intensive exploitation

If all the points listed above are not about you and all the rules of use are strictly observed, it makes sense to check its internal state. Perhaps the device has not received cleaning for a long time and has become overgrown with scale.

Calcium is the enemy of any technology that deals with heating water. Lime deposits are formed due to too high hardness. In some regions, even special emollients do not save the situation. If you look closely, scale can be found on metal, plastic parts of equipment, not to mention the internal filling.

To resolve the issue, you need to clean up. Descale a couple of times a year. It is necessary to drive the device with vinegar, citric acid or special tool, using the program with maximum temperature regime. The agent is added to the powder filling compartment.

In general, I would advise immediately after the purchase new technology check the water hardness and set the correct hardness level by looking at the dishwasher settings. In general, the question tap water extremely important. If it is too hard, without the use of salt, get ready for the fact that there will always be white coating . In addition to detergents for without fail you need to use this simple component. Conversely, too soft water does not wash at all, since it simply has nothing to wash off.

The second point is the banal clogging. These can be accumulations of food debris, debris, particles of napkins, etc. All this settles on sprinklers, fine and coarse filters. If the device is working properly, the dishes were clean and suddenly stopped washing, it is necessary to revise the filters. By the way, manufacturers advise doing this after each wash cycle.

Extraneous sounds should suggest clogged drain filters. It can be sand, dirt, which creak and at the same time seep into the pump.

And now for the breakdowns.

Below I will list which malfunctions will affect the result of the dishwasher. Experience shows that poor washing can be caused by specific breakdowns.

Burnt out heating element (water heater)

All appliances of this type are equipped with water heaters. It is the heating element, by virtue of its purpose, that often becomes overgrown with scale, and during long-term operation it can simply burn out. Failure of this node leads to poor heating water, and the dishwasher washes much worse with cold water. An indirect sign of a breakdown is a clear smell of burning.

Solution: in all likelihood, you will have to change the old heater to a new one. Such repairs require the participation of a specialist and on average cost from 1.5 tr.

The pump has failed

The circulation pump is a weak link in budget dishwashers with a Chinese assembly. Daewoo and Bosch equipment sins with rapid wear. Sometimes failures occur against the background of long-term operation. The purpose of this node is to pump water into the device. Malfunctions lead to a lack of liquid, the machine refuses to start the program, the dishes remain dirty. In addition to the lack of liquid, another situation may be observed when water accumulates inside. At the same time, the machine is able to go through the entire washing cycle, just the dishes will not be washed. Diagnosis is necessary for correct repair.

Solution: almost always a malfunction requires the installation of a new circulation pump. A worn out or failed node is changed to a serviceable one for 1.8-2 tr.

If the wine is in the sprinkler

Every sprinkler has an impeller. This mechanism rotates the rocker, so that the dishes are washed from all sides. If this assembly breaks, there is no rotation and dirt remains on the plates. Interruptions can occur in one or two devices. Moreover, on the rocker can lose weight sealing rubber . If damage appears here, this provokes a reduction in the water pressure created by the machine. Then the dishes will be poorly washed either from above or from below, depending on which side the seal was damaged.

Solution: if it's a breakdown, the device is always replaced with a new one. Fortunately, it is inexpensive and will cost 0.9-1 tr.

Thermostat or thermostat not working

This thing works to measure the temperature of the water. The data received by the sensor is sent to the control module. From him, the heating element receives a command to heat. Lack of information leads to poor heating, which is deplorable for the washing result.

Solution: the sensor changes to a new one, which will be released at 1.2-1.5 tr, depending on the type of model.

The control module is out of order

This is the brain of any dishwasher planted on electronic control. It is the module that gives commands to all technical units, thanks to which the device knows that it is necessary to collect, drain water, etc. If the brain fails, the machine cannot work or performs its functions incorrectly.

Solution: if a failure occurs, it may be possible to get by with a flashing. For more serious faults, replacement is required. Repair will not be the cheapest. The most loyal services offer prices from 2.5 tr.

Water turbidity sensor broken

Such equipment can only be seen in the equipment of the premium price segment. The turbidity control sensor transmits information about the state of the water to the brain of the machine. If there is dirt and the water is not clean enough, the wash cycle will continue. If the device breaks, it plays a minus. The machine does not see the actual contamination of the liquid, respectively, the purification simply cannot be correct.

Solution: The sensor is almost always replaced with a new one. This is also not cheap and will cost over 2.5 tr.

Faulty water hardness sensor

If your dishwasher is equipped with such a sensor, if it breaks, the dishes will be covered with white spots, often there will be plaque and stains on them. As a rule, sensor failure is a disease of expensive equipment. For example, they are in Miele. A malfunction leads to a loss of control over the flow of regenerating salt. Insufficient softening worsens the result.

Solution: sensor replacement. Let me tell you right now that this is an expensive pleasure. An average repair will cost 4 tr.

Incorrect installation

Oddly enough, poor washing can be caused by incorrect installation of the dishwasher and poor connection. For example, a drain device at a lower height or too low water pressure can cause just such a result.

There is only one solution in this case: reinstall the device and ensure the required water pressure.

In the same vein of “third-party problems”, I note that when operating equipment in countryside, or in homes with unstable networks, for high-quality cleaning on some programs, the device may not have enough voltage. This leads to the fact that the water is not as hot as it should be according to the regime. In other cases, there is no steam, where it should be. As a result, tablets do not dissolve during washing. etc. To check this point, you can try to run the equipment in a different mode, where the degree of water is higher, or eliminate jumps using a stabilizer. In any case, at a voltage below 200 V, the appliance will not wash the dishes until it squeaks.

conclusions

All factors caused by improper operation can be corrected and corrected independently. However, I would not recommend repairing breakdowns if you do not have the proper experience. All malfunctions must be repaired by a specialist with the appropriate knowledge.. In addition, it is the professional who has special equipment.

Attempts self repair in 99% of cases lead to a worse result than it was. It is good if the master can correct all the consequences of amateur performance. In practice, the illiterate actions of the owners to replace small and insignificant components often lead to the complete departure of the control module, and so on. Such situations lead to a multiple increase in the cost of repairs.

If the dishwasher BOSCH machine does not wash dishes, dirt remains on its surface, do not rush to contact the master. Perhaps the problem is not correct operation.

Before calling the service center, check the following.

• Is the mode set correctly? It is possible that the water temperature and washing intensity do not correspond to the contamination.
• Are you overloading the machine. If there are too many dishes, the washing quality will be poor.
• Do you leave food on the dishes. Leftover food should be thrown away, which is what the manufacturers warn about.

The reason for the poor performance of the BOSCH dishwasher may be poor-quality solvent, dishwashing detergent. If you load too little or too much of the product, the equipment will not cope with the contamination or will not be able to wash away the remaining solution. It is important to use special composition. Regular dishwashing detergent won't work.

If everything is in order with the tool, and you follow the rules of operation, the problem may be a malfunction of one of the nodes. Can break:

Errors in the BOSCH dishwasher control system are also possible.

What to do if the dishwasher does not wash?

First, make sure you follow the rules of operation. Perhaps this is the problem: you send dishes with frozen food to the machine, overload the equipment, use the wrong mode or the wrong product. If you're following the rules, try to figure out what the problem is. In particular:

• failure of the heating element leads to washing with cold water. The water just doesn't heat up and the machine can't wash the dishes well. If the heating element is broken, the dishes will be cold;
• due to a pump failure, the washer does not start at all. Water does not circulate in the system, and the dishes remain dry and dirty;
• a failure in the control unit leads to errors in operation - the duration and intensity of washing do not correspond to the selected mode.

Once you understand what went wrong, you can more accurately describe the problem to the technician.

What repairs will be required if the dishwasher does not wash well?

The type of repair depends on the breakdown. So, it is possible to replace the sensor, circulation pump, heating element, flashing the control system, as well as other types of work. The exact cost and duration of the BOSCH dishwasher repair can be found out only after the diagnosis. It is carried out by the master who came to the call.

The reasons why the dishwasher does not wash dishes well, which affects this factor, are considered in detail. Listed possible breakdowns techniques leading to the presented problem.

Common Causes

Most housewives do not think about the proper operation of equipment, which causes problems in the form of poorly washed dishes. If the dishwasher does not wash the dishes well, the following main reasons can be identified, the elimination of which will help to cope with the trouble that has arisen:

• hostess errors in operation;
• wrong;
• lack of timely cleaning of equipment;
• failure of a particular part or system of the machine.

To identify the cause of poor washing, you should carefully consider each factor that affects the poor quality of the procedure.

Untimely cleaning of parts

Failure to clean dishwasher parts on time is the most common dishwashing problem. Here you should check each part separately for condition and appearance:

If you find that the dishwasher has become poorly washed, be sure to carry out a high-quality cleaning of the parts. If the situation repeats, pay attention to other reasons.

Use of poor quality cleaning products

Poor cleaning may be due to the use of ineffective cleaning products or the erroneous purchase of a fake brand. If the reason lies in this, then you will come across dirty metal dishes - pots and pans, due to their heavy pollution won't wash off, stay greasy.

In the question presented, you may encounter the following problems:

• There are stains on the dishes - the reason is not enough rinse aid. The solution to the problem is presented in the form of regulating the supply of funds - it is necessary to increase the pressure, slightly, so as not to provoke its difficult flushing.
• White smudges remain on the dishes - this is due to the ingress of salt into the tank. Check if the compartment cover is closed properly.
• There are traces of tea, coffee or lipstick on the cups, which means that there is no bleach in the product used.
• Plastic dishes are poorly washed - for it, a special component is added to cleaning products that allows you to wash plastic items without streaks. If the quality of washing is not pleasing, it means that there is no special substance in the composition of the product used.
• The dishwasher does not wash off dirt and cleaning agent well - it is appropriate to make an unconditional argument in using an inappropriate composition, which is often simply not intended for this technique.

The solution to the problem related to the presented group of reasons is to change. In most cases, housewives are faced with similar problems immediately after acquiring the composition of a new advertised brand.

Errors in operation

The dishwasher does not wash dishes well even if the equipment itself is used improperly. In this case, the following problems and solutions can be distinguished:

To eliminate problems related to the presented category, you should re-read the instruction manual for your dishwasher. Different brands and models differ in equipment, which means that their use entails compliance with certain recommendations.

Possible breakdowns

If the dishwasher suddenly began to wash dishes poorly, the cause of the problem may be hiding in a serious breakdown that needs to be repaired in a timely manner. To figure out which part has ceased to function properly, the following instruction will help:

• The heating element burned out - this is a special electric heater that provides timely heating of water. Due to the fact that it is constantly in contact with water, scale accumulates on it. The absence of its removal entails a breakdown of the heating element - often it burns out without assuming restoration or repair. If the reason lies precisely in the electric heater, the water in the dishwasher does not heat up, which means that all the dishes remain greasy.
• The sprinkler impeller has stopped working - this element is designed to spray water in order to clean all the dishes as much as possible. If the impeller does not work, then the water does not reach all surfaces, and the loaded remains unwashed.
• The water turbidity sensor has burned out - the system shown is available in modern models relevant technology. The operation of the system is to transfer the quality of the water to the module - if it is considered cloudy, the washing should continue, which is determined automatically. If the system fails, then there is no turbidity detection and the machine automatically decides to end the cycle upon completion of the program time.
• The recirculation pump has broken down - in this case, the equipment will not start its work, since there is no water supply during the presented breakdown.
• The thermal relay burned out - this system is a transmitter for the heating element about the intake of water in the car. The thermal relay at a certain moment gives a signal about the beginning of its operation and heating occurs. If the system does not work, the heating element does not turn on and does not heat the water.

The dishwasher may work poorly or stop altogether due to an error in the operation of the control module. In this case, the system does not give commands, which is why there is no collection of water or its heating. The presented breakdown requires serious repair with the involvement of a special programmer.

If the cause of dirty dishes or is the breakdown of any element, you should call the master. The specialist will immediately determine the cause and the out-of-service part. If necessary, they will immediately carry out a replacement, and it will be possible to use the equipment in the near future.

What to do?

Having disassembled everything possible reasons, it should be concluded what to do if the dishes remain dirty. The sequence of actions of the hostess is as follows:

1. If the dishwashing detergent has been replaced, change it again with a new one or return the old one to use. Look at the changes that have taken place.
2. If the product has not been changed, purchase it again at another online store. Perhaps a fake was bought, so the composition does not contain the appropriate and necessary elements.
3. Increase the amount of rinse aid - this must be done every time the machine is loaded with a large number of utensils.
4. In the next load, immerse a smaller amount of dishes to eliminate the option of misusing the equipment.
5. Rinse all equipment - instructions for timely and proper care have been described above. It is important to descale the machine.
6. Experiment with the mode of operation of the equipment - due to constant operation, parts wear out and work no longer at the same productivity.
7. Check the sequence of the running program - as soon as the dishes are immersed in the tank and the program starts, water starts to fill. It should be checked for quantity, as well as for subsequent distribution over the entire surface of the washable elements. It is also necessary to check whether the water is being heated - heating element burnout is a common problem in the breakdown of equipment. Try to independently determine the cause of the breakdown in order to exclude possible other prerequisites.

If all the presented actions did not lead to a positive result - the dishes remain dirty after washing - contact the master who can identify the problem,. Timely replacement of one part will prevent other systems from breaking down.

After the end of the washing cycle, poor-quality washed dishes were found behind the hopper door - with plaque, food residues or soap suds? Familiar situation? Why did this happen and why does the dishwasher wash dishes poorly? The reasons for this may be simple to the point of banality, but a serious breakdown is not ruled out. Let's take a look at everything in detail.

PMM does not launder: incorrect operation

If the dishwasher has become poorly washed, first of all it is necessary to exclude factors that are not related to the breakdown of parts and systems. The reason for this may be a violation of the rules of use:

• There is food on the plates. If you are accustomed to saving dishes all day long and do not brush off the leftover food from them, then you can forget about high-quality and efficient washing forever. The manufacturer warns about this in the user manual - take a look at it if you don't believe it.

• Wrong program. If you have loaded a large batch of heavily soiled dishes and have selected the short or economy setting, don't be surprised if the machine doesn't clean well. These cycles are designed for washing lightly soiled dishes and utensils, as well as for refreshing dishes. In other cases, you need to choose intensive and high-temperature cycles.
• Bunker overload. The machine does not wash the plates if the baskets are crammed full of them. Unload the boxes, observing the distance between the dishes - perhaps this is the reason.

• Detergents. Another reason why the dishwasher stopped washing is the wrong selection of detergents or their required volume. Adjust the dose of powder or detergent, add rinse aid, or completely replace the products in your arsenal.

If none of the above factors came true and you still end up with dirty or soapy dishes, you need to take the issue more seriously. You will have to understand the structure of the machine or contact the master. Although this last resort- most problems at an early stage can be solved without contacting a service center.

Other Issues Requiring Immediate Resolution

The reasons listed below are often not related to a violation of the terms of use, or are related, but indirectly:

• Limescale or simply scale. This main enemy technology that works with hot water. It's all because of the impurities that make tap water hard. Often, even special softeners and regenerating salt do not soften the impact of water on the inside of the dishwasher. The worst thing is that the raid is not visible - it is inside the PMM and slowly causes the car to break down. If scale appears on the impellers (sprinklers), then the water is sprayed much worse, which affects the efficiency of washing.

• blockages. It is difficult to fully remove all the remnants of food, napkins and other things from the plates - in this case they will have to be washed, but why then PMM? All this rubbish is collected by filters, and also falls on sprinklers. Therefore, if the dishes are slippery and unwashed after a dishwasher, check the filters. It is advisable to clean them after each cycle - this recommendation is even spelled out by manufacturers in the instructions.

If the amount of detergent is chosen correctly, you have thoroughly cleaned the utensils of dirt and cleaned all the filters, but the washing is still bad, it looks like a breakdown. What to do: how to detect and fix the failure? More on this later.

Possible problems: how to fix?

Consider the possible malfunctions in which the PMM may not be able to cope 100% with its main function:

Heating element failure

Each PMM is equipped with a device that heats water to the required temperature. Thermoelectric heater (TEH) is most prone to scale accumulation on its surface. The longer the overgrown heating element works, the sooner it will burn out. After the heater fails, the machine ceases to cope with the main function - and the quality of washing drops to a minimum, since it is difficult to wash something in cold water. In this situation, disassembly of the machine body is required and complete replacement heater with a new part.

Breakdown of the circulation pump

The pump that pumps water into the dishwasher, when it fails, blocks the water supply for the washing process, hence the dirty, cloudy dishes. The way out of the situation is to replace the part with a new original.

Sprinkler wheel problems

The impeller is a mechanism that rotates the rocker with sprinklers. In case of failure, the rotation stops (both one impeller and two) and the dishes are not washed well. The way out is to replace the impeller.

Temperature sensor failure

The temperature sensor (thermal relay) is used to measure the water temperature. The information received by the sensor is fed to the electronic module, which commands the heater to start heating. If the data is incorrect (or not supplied at all), the heating element does not start and the washing takes place in cold water - hence its low quality. The sensor needs to be replaced with a new one.

Malfunction of the control module

The task of the software board is to send commands to all PMM nodes. So, the module controls heating, draining and other processes. In the event of a breakdown, the board does not work correctly, causing a malfunction of the machine. In this case, the module must be flashed or replaced with a new one.

Turbidity sensor failure

This error is only for expensive cars, in the design of which a sensor is provided that controls the turbidity of the water. It sends a signal to the board that if the water is not yet clean enough, the cycle should continue. If the sensor fails, the module does not receive information about the state of the liquid and the wash cycle does not work correctly. It will help to replace the sensor with a new one.
