How to fix Diplomat dishwasher?

When I power it on it after a few seconds it bleeps twice, the normal programme light is flashing but pressing the programme button will not change the programme or stop the flashing light.

It was working last night, but we had a leak from underneath, so the machine has been on its side and joints tightened. I have checked all the electrical connections are tight.

Help appreciate - thanks Mike

Hi,

Sounds like the flood switch has activated, near the very base at the front of the machine is a black plastic panel, you need to prise this off and dry the inside with a sponge.
I fear you may have caused more problems by tipping the machine as water may have entered the electrics by doing this.
Tightening the seals will not prevent this from happening, it usually is caused by overloaded bottom trays or by using the 3-in-1 dishwasher tablets which are not advised in slimline machines
