I have just encounted the same fault, where can i buy the SM10 (F) unit and how much are they?

Can't help on the wiring diagram. But ours has done the same thing 3 times now. The fault was the timer (Invensys SM10, Model 'F' I think). Like I said, this is the third time now, in as many years. I really don't want to buy another timer. Thinking it's better to give up paying out every year or so and buy a new dishwasher. One with a DIGITAL timer.

Only about 6 real problems with dishwashers.
The usual issue with hoses leaking
Heating element may fail. This will lead to the machine stopping part way through its cycle
Soap/rinse aid dispensor failing to open. Will need replacing
Seals around door sometimes split, or break up. They will need replacing
Pumps. There are 2 pumps in most dishwashers. The drain pump,( which describes itself -it pumps the water out of the machine.)
The recirculating pump which forces the water at high pressure through the spray nozzles and arms. (This is how the cleaning action is performed)
These pump may either leak, or burn out. Either way, the only solution is replacement.
Thermostats. If a thermostat fails on your dishwasher, you will get a similar effect as when the heating element fails. The obvious clue is no heating, but also the machine may not complete it's cycle.
You could try the Candy website at:
WWW.candy-dosmestic.co.uk and ask their tecnical department for help.
