Hotpoint dishwaser preoblem.

Hi,
I have an Aquarius + dishwasher and it stops just after the cycle has started. The display flashes A5.

Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it please.

Thank You

I think that will be a service call ..
I cannot find A5 code on the web .. apart from unanswered questions about it.
Must be electronic I would have thought. Maybe a motor pump failure .. does it stop about the same time as you would expect the motor/pump to tart up?

I can find an A05, which is a pressure switch fault.

You could try dropping the drain hose all the way to floor level to drain all the water out of it to see if that clears it, if not it may be a service call to clear the pressure system.

LOL, do the motor or pumps tart up especially for Christmas, Al? :)

lol 'tart'

Thanks everyone. Yes I do believe that these things pack up at Christmas on purpose.

It was the pressure and is now working fine. Thank you.
