  • Dishwasher not draining Water.
    If your Dishwasher is full of water I will show you the steps to try and fix a Dishwasher that won't drain water. If your Dishwasher has standing water in it then there must be a blockage, I'll help you try to fix the Dishwasher drainage problem.
    I will show you how to check the Dishwasher filter, Dishwasher impeller and Drainage hose pipework.
    This is on a Bosch Dishwasher (Siemens Dishwasher) but the same steps can be used on other Dishwashers.
    Hope you get it sorted. If you still have problems and the Bosch Dishwasher is not draining water properly (standing water in Dishwasher) then it's time to call a Dishwasher Engineer as the Dishwasher pump may have failed.
    I am always posting new Videos to help you save ⏱TIME and 💰 MONEY.

I was feeling quite stressed as I don’t have the money to repair/replace it right now. But with your very handy (and amusing!) video, along with my partners toothbrush, I discovered how to get to that little propellor thingy and sure enough there was a piece of glass in there!!! Couldn’t believe it! Saved me a bunch of money on a repair person, thanks so VERY much from Canada.

    @vicjak3000 3 года назад +7

    You’re going to love me after you read my comment/advise. I always put dishwasher powder/liquid not just inside the sealed lockable compartment, but most importantly also outside of it. Logically answer yourself this question, when is the detergent required the most, when the dishes are the dirtiest at the beginning of cycle or halfway through when they are already partially rinsed by just pure water? The answer is Off course when very dirty at the beginning. So I always split my dishwasher powder between sealed compartment and outside, effectively it gives your dishes a prewash. Most dishwasher actually have designated space for this reason, sometimes uncovered, sometimes under the the main flap slotted section. Frankly my “half “ of powder outside is alway bigger then locked “half”. It also has another benefit apart from cleaning your dishes better, it keeps your dishwasher’s drainage pipes clean, that’s because all this greasy stuff from initial wash is dissolved by the powder you’ve put outside of locked compartment and does not stick to the drainage. For this reason I have never ever used any of those heavily advertised “dishwasher cleaners”. You will notice it yourself when cleaning the filter (still have do it regularly, it’s compulsory), it won’t have this whitish gluey coat that is hard to remove. After 20 years of service I have replaced my old dishwasher with new one and guess what? The drainage pipe was so clean that I have not changed, just reconnected it to new machine.
    Another tip, when you’re installing your dishwasher, connect it to hot water supply pipe instead of cold.
    Don’t bother with all in one tablets or pods, always use dedicated powder/liquid and separate rinse aid. By the way rinse aid really makes the difference ton achieve spotless dry dishes.
    P.S. obviously I am a dishwasher freak.

    Never put wine glasses in dishwasher, they break and tiny shards of glass lodge in the impeller, which is plastic, then the glass destroys the impeller and you get to visit the appliance store.

    Thanks for the tips I have a Westinghouse dishwasher that keeps displaying the F2 message.
    With this model it’s not that easy reaching the pump.
    I drained the water using a water vacuum cleaner drain water very quickly.
    I looked through the gaps with an inspection camera and I could see hair wrapped around the pump propeller but could not reach to clean.
    Closed all taps drain all hoses disconnected electricity.
    Push dishwasher out and place it on his back.
    Open the bottom and released the hoses leads to the propeller clean the hair but it didn’t seem to stop the propeller from spinning.
    Than on the opposite side were the drain hose is there you can open this chamber just by spinning it anti clockwise quarter a spin and there I found the real cause of the problem a piece that broke from a plate.
    Put everything back together and dishwasher work just fine no more F2 error.
    Thanks for the tips.

    Hi, thanks a ton for showing how to open that white part so clearly.
    I generally use the quick cycle on a regular basis on my month old siemens dishwasher & it worked great with 10-15 gm of Finish detergent. But since last 3 cycles, I have few soap suds remaining on the bottom of the dishwasher at the end of the quick cycle (the water drains away).To clear away the soap suds, after unloading the dishwasher, I tried the Prerinse cycle which runs only for 15 min. on an empty dishwasher without adding any detergent & opened it when 12 min. were left. There was soapy water inside & all the water drained away at the end of 15 min. leaving behind extremely miniscal amount of soap suds behind. I clean the outer filter very 2nd day & so its always pretty clean. I ran the Prerinse cycle again & that cleared away the soap suds totally.
    Seeing your video, I had the courage to open up that white part revealing the impeller inside which moved freely . There was some water below the outer filter in that hollow place inside. Is that normal? There was barely a strand & v. minute 3-4 debri particles. My vacuum cleaner doesn’t suck up water & so I just cleaned dipping a Microfiber cloth inside. Why do I have this soap suds since I haven’t changed the detergent or the type of cycle which I run? Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thank you once again for this demo

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  3 года назад +1

      I should imagine the cleaning programme is too short for it to work properly. Our dishwasher standard cleaning cycle takes 2hours30mins! Try a normal programme

    Many thanks Lurgs. All dishwashers I assume work on the same principals. Mine is a Kenwood KDW60S20. The confusing issue with me was that the F2 error came on simultaneously to the mains water being temporarily being cut off. When I followed your instructions step by step it turned that a piece of wood (like a toothpick) about 27mm had got through the filter and was stopping the impellor from working. Once removed the water drained out. You saved me €100 for a call out, many thanks
