Essentials dishwasher problems include:

Currys Essentials dishwasher won’t start

There is a range of possible causes here from the door not being properly closed to problems with the power supply. This could be due to defective fuses, plug sockets, switches, or an outage with the power supply itself.

For any of these issues, you need to call a qualified technician who will quickly diagnose the fault and safely fix the problem or you.

Currys Essentials dishwasher flashing lights

When the rapid programme indicator flashes frequently this may result from a defective water tap, low water pressure, a broken flow meter, or loose wire terminals that connect the flow meter. Other issues that can cause flashing lights include the pressure switch not activating within the timeline of the inlet valve becoming active, a blocked pressure switch tube, or faulty pressure switch wiring.

A trained and experienced appliance repair technician will effectively repair or replace any faulty parts to get your appliance operating properly again.

Currys Essentials dishwasher not draining

A culprit here can be the drain pump not working correctly causing the anti-flooding system to be activated. Other components that will need to be expertly checked include the drain hose, filter, drain valve and drain basket.

Blockages at the bottom of the appliance can disrupt the water flow, and loading the dishwasher incorrectly can also cause draining problems. If your Essentials dishwasher is making unusual noises such as humming or clicking sound this is an indication that the drain pump or motor may need replacing.
