I have a F&P Nautilus Dishwasher and it is driving me insane. I have had someone come to look at it but they told me to use powder not tablets which i have been however the same problem keeps arising. The dishwasher will stop part way through a cycle and sound like it is running, but its not doing anything. The digital screen is blank usually however on one occasion I happened to notice F0 come up momentarily. I regularly have to pull the dishwasher out and turn it off at the wall to stop it from "running". Sometimes it just beeps in the middle of the night for no apparent reason. Can anyone tell me what might be wrong, and how to fix. Or is all hope lost and I need to replace? Many thanks

Hope you didn't pay good money to the idiot who came & told you to use powder instead of tablets to cure an electronics fault. All of the symptoms you describe are electronic faults - machine not stopping unless disconnected from the wall, beeping in the night, F0 codes coming up (There is no such code programmed only F1 F2 or F3) all these point to a faulty control board. Get the PCB board replaced.
