I have a Beko dishwasher model DE3542FW. It fills up with water then stops and wont continue the rest of the cycle, could it be the motor has packed up. I have cleaned out the pump and all the pipes but does'nt seem to have made any difference. Dont want to buy a new motor just incase it's not that, any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers for that ck. I think it's the circulation pump thats gone, thanks very much for your help :-)

if the water is filling to the correct level (just above filters in the base) then the circulation pump shoul kick in.If it doesn't then it could have something jammed in it or seized up.tip dishwasher on its back and remove the metal base.look at the larger motor for water leaks between the motor and the plastic impellor housing.held on to side with 2 screws and a clamp
