if this part fails, does the dishwasher fail to fill?

MY favorit refuses to fill - and I have tried everything else. When I remove the existing overflow valve and empty it, shake it around and refit it, I get one cycle out of the machine, then I am back to square one.

  • My DH102 had the same fault, it had been working on and off for some time but finally totally failed. The total failure was this valve which stopped the dishwasher from filling at all. The intermittent problem was the device behind the left hand side panel. The test is simple you simply put the dishwasher on its right side for 5 seconds (power off!). If that fixes the problem for a week then you need to clean out this device! Its a horrible job but it fixes the dishwasher. Rob By rmarston - UK - 01 April 2010

    Hi Skipton, it sounds as if the inlet valve in your washer is either blocked or faulty. Check for blockage, and if it still doesn't work, quote me your washer's specific model number and I will locate the valve you need.
