The electrical part of the dishwasher seems to have gone as the machine will not even turn on. I have tried changing the fuse but this hasn't done anything. Is the electrical part of the dishwasher something that can be repaired?

The mains power goes through a suppressor unit, then a mains relay, then onto the main circuit board.
Only an electrician could really help with this one.
There is a circuit diagram tucked behind the electronic unit.

Hi. I have just got the very same problem. Have checked the socket and that is fine. Power getting to it. Changed the plug fuss and that too is fine. But like Lee I have no lights on dishwasher at all. Any ideas? Was working fine but just stopped in mid cycle.

Hi. Thanks for the quick response. The dishwasher is an intergrated machine and so the on/off buttoms, program settings are visible when the door is open. I used to turn it on, set the program (the machine used to light up), then close the door to start the program. I can't even get to the closing door stage as when you turn it on, nothing lights up. I have had a look at the electronic on/off unit and there are no visible signs of it being damaged etc. Any ideas?

If you have no lights on at all, try plugging into a different socket.
If you have any lights or power on at all, then it's probably a door closure related problem. Take off the decor panel ( the one that matches the kitchen ), & close the door.
If it still doesn't work, it could be a number of different things, but unlikely to be the main circuit board.
