You can set the program you desire, close the door and all seems ok. water sounds like it is filling up, then it just stops, when i open door all programes are flashing. I have checked filters they are not clogged. Could it be a pump problem. Diplomat Mod:ADP8242 Type:12043

I've just been reading through the forum and if anyone else has a similar problem to mine please read Justin question on Feb 2005. I'm now £90- lighter in the pocket for not reading the the forum pages before calling out an engineer.

Wayne (again), May 2006

I have a similar problem with this model the program starts and fills up with water, after about 3 minutes it emits a short beep and then empties without doing any washing. Out of the five program lights; from the left the first three lights flash on and off, the fourth stays off and the fifth remains on. I have checked the fault page in the handbook and this is not a recognised fault. The repair man has been and has sent off the circuit board (program) which has revealed it to be faulty. I have been informed that Diplomat is actually a Smeg and they sell a considerable amount of circuit boards which are around £85 -£90.
I can see that you posted this question in Jan 2006 so you have most probably fixed your problem by now, or will have very soft hands from doing all the washing up!
