How to repair your own Electrolux dishwasher

The quality of modern household appliances is at a very high level, but they sometimes break down for various reasons. Before you start repairing your Electrolux dishwashers at home, let's look at the typical problems and troubleshooting methods that are typical for this model.

Typical failures

According to statistics, 90% of cars under the brand Electrolux, which are sold in Russia, are manufactured at Polish plants. Their quality is slightly worse than that of counterparts from Germany, but the pricing policy does not bite. Masters from service centers, especially for the Russian consumer, note their merits:

  • reliability and quality of the car body;
  • well equipped circulation pumps with large work resource;
  • The main focus of the assembly is on small parts - wiring terminals, sealing rubber bands, filter elements, connecting wires and clamps, on which trouble-free operation of the equipment primarily depends.

No particular flaws or weaknesses were found, but, like other brands, there are some typical damage and malfunctions from which no one is insured:

  • hoses, pipes of water supply and discharge systems are often clogged;
  • water does not heat up according to the mode;
  • Sometimes there may be problems with the execution of specified dishwashing programs.

In order not to do often the repair of the dishwasher, you should always pay attention to the state of technology, adhere to the recommendations set out in the instructions.

Tracts drain and filler systems

In all water-based technology, these systems are the first to be clogged. Blame here water qualitybecause in different regions it is not only different in hardness, but also contains numerous impurities of various minerals.

The first blow perceives the filter installed at the entrance to the machine: all harmful impurities settle on its walls, therefore it is necessary to clean it from water stone all the time. No chemical cleaning means will help you - they only clean the inside of the hoses and pipes of the system.

The algorithm for cleaning the filter element is simple and we can do it completely with our own hands:

  • shut off the water supply to the machine;
  • disconnect the filler hose with integrated flow filter from the tap and the entrance to the dishwasher;
  • remove the strainer from the enclosure at the entrance to the machine;
  • Rinse the hose and both filters, then put everything in place.

 Dishwasher Filter

Many users do not put an additional filter at the entrance to the drain hose, but in vain - this reduces the load on the filter mesh element installed on the machine by half.

Prevention is the basis of the purity of these elements, such measures for the Electrolux typewriter are popularly described in the attached operating instructions, but we recall the main points:

  1. Clean dishes from food debris before placing them in baskets.
  2. Detergents should be added strictly according to the norm, only high-quality, tested in operation, so that their undissolved precipitates do not clog the filters.
  3. Constantly watch for enough regenerating salt.
  4. After each dishwashing, check both filters on the bottom of the tank of the car, clean them from impurities.

For prophylactic cleaning of the drain system, purchase a patented product, pour it onto the bottom of the tank and turn on the idling mode without adding detergents.

Water heating

Problems with heating water are directly connected to the heating element or with sensors and a control module. This foreign technique is very sensitive to voltage drops in the electrical network, due to which a triac can burn out - a symmetrical triode thyristor in the control board.

The control module will not be able to give the necessary signal to the heating element to heat the water - repairing the dishwasher will be costly due to the volume of work performed:

  • dismantling the machine to get to the heating element;
  • diagnostics of it, as well as the entire electric circuit;
  • call the control module, identify the malfunction and replace, if there is such an opportunity - remove and test in the laboratory.

Tip! To protect your assistant from power surges - place your own stabilizer between the meter and the machine connection line.

Repairs and diagnostics should be carried out by a specialist from a service center, checking yourself can lead to the fact that you need to replace the car with a new one.

Freeze during washing

This defect is quite common on Electrolux machine models - masters advise to turn it off for a few seconds and then re-enable it. Sometimes the hang is repeated systematically, here such a method is already invalid. There is a factory defect: it is necessary to replace control module and test the operation of the machine in all modes.

Some Electrolux machine models are cheaper to buy than to change a completely expensive control module.

Cases of failure of this component are rare, often the cause of failures is unstable work. sensors - aqua-sensor, pressure switch and the like. Dishwasher repair will be to replace them.

Poor wash quality

In cars of this brand often have problems with the flow of water or with the supply of detergents. In order not to bring the Electrolux dishwasher to an urgent, costly repair, it is necessary to immediately diagnose the problem: the tablet remains, the powder does not dissolve, which means that there are problems with the supply of detergents or water.

Methods of elimination:

  • check the availability of water in the home water system;
  • we look, whether the inlet hose, mesh filters are not clogged;
  • investigate the serviceability of the valve supply of detergents;
  • We analyze the correctness of loading detergents.

After eliminating all the listed deficiencies, the quality of washing dishes should be excellent.

Another tip: do not be lazy to hold different preventive work. At least 3 times a month, add 250 g of vinegar, turn on Economy mode, set a pause in the middle of the cycle and leave the car in this condition for an hour. During this time, the resulting limescale will dissolve completely and without a trace.
