I went back and had another look, got to about 10 then gave up!
So, up lateish, (although it is Sunday)
About to attack the dishwasher, AGAIN!.
The test was going so well last night that we started preparing dinner.
Then I heard a funny noise come from it and moments later clear water started coming out from underneath..
So stopped it, set it to beging another program waited until it had finished the original pump-out then switched it off.
Grrr!
Still at least it is heating the water up!
I HATE having to "work" on a Sunday.
And if rain is the new sun, then rust is the new suntan.

Nookers live ont telly. Bbc2. Yer can watch other matches on catch up between programs. 4 of me jigsaw cuts have bin cuttid. 2 to draw un cut. Nuvva magpie failed to eat me wurms from the feeder. They poop on the floor when dangling at funny angles. Sometimes eye see me feeder swaying but nowt onnit. Eye is convinced they is trying more often than eye realise.

Still dreich here but played about in the garden Low on compost now but CBA to go to Wickes.
Hopefully fixed the DW, sho nuff, one of the rubber -type tubes had shifted slightly so prolly wasn't quite on at the right place.
So just go to take a side panel off in order to tie-wrap the waste pipe to where it was before, (which I forgottid to do) although I don't see what it could touch and put the bottom panel back on.
Then I'll get it upright again and test it, but not putting it back in its hole properly until we are sure it is functioning as it should.

Flipping DW didn't want to work properly on test. I plumbed it into the cold water to give it a proper test. It would pump out but wouldn't take water in, on a variety of progs.
W and I mulled it over, she wanted to kick it but I stopped her!
In the end we decided to put the water supply pipe back on the hot pipe where we have alwas had it up till now. Put it on the 30 minute cylce and, lo and begorrah, it is now running.
I will not dance until the fat lady sings but am a lot more hopeful.
I am wondering if the cold water supply pressure is too low as it is certainly higher from the hot tap than it is from the cold. And the Electrolux website says this can be a problem if the supply is at less than 20 psi.
Oops. Yet again stopped part way through a cycle and started beeping again, although it got a long way into it before this happened. At least it took water in this time.
Getting a bit fed up of this.

Went to Wickes as I would rather go now than on a bank holiday. I dislike crowds as it is but it was interesting thinking a shoplifter was in and you could see the staff scrambling around.

Maybe you have a similar problem that we had. It takes water but not quick enough and registers low pressure. Ours started doing it after a long period of no use. It wasn't low pressure it was a blockage so the DW thought it wasn't getting water as fast as expected.
Put the hot feed on the cold feed (if you think the hot has more pressure) but dont have any hot water available see what happens.

Know some of the DW have water solonoids which open and close depending on the cycle , they have screens so indeed can block up
Another thing is they can become weak and not stay open enough , the pressure sensors then as suggested don’t register the correct pressure leading to it shutting down
Of course there are different systems , just a few that I’ve fixed in the past
Others were a nightmare from one thing to another so cut my loses and got a new one , alas some only lasted 5 x years even with a water filter fitted to try and reduce the scale

Well weirdly, after not wanting to finish the cycle I started it again and it now has done.
I think it objects to being turned upside down as, apart from changing the heating element, nothing else has changed on it.
I am surprised at the water pressure. In France it can be very high and our house, like loads, has a water pressure reducer on it.
Anyway, once we have run it through a few more different cycles to check it I'll put back in its hole and do all the other remedial work like the broken clips on the back of the kickboard under that part of the kitchen!
That's interesting!
At least I can discount hard water deposits as the water is extremely soft.
5 years is ridiculous.
I done them over a year ago, the glass cracked last week so ive replaced all the ropes n seals too.
I have had a Pinto engine in a small trailer under a tarp for about 25 years. And I still have a Domomite Sprint 4 speed plus overdrive gearbox kicking around so long it is only worth scrap now. Stored it outside with no ATF in it.
So, good on you!
I collect parts for projects that I am slowly realising I will probably never achieve.
Hope its a 2L pinto with a 205 block.

Wood Larch got to paint them this year 15 years old do them every 3 years
Looks like Easterhouse to me
Much flooding there I see
Best place for it is under water.
