Mend Diplomat ADP8322 Dishwasher Motor Drain

Diplomat ADP8322 sounds like an air lock in cycle?

Please Help, My Diplomat ADP8322 sounds like it's got an air lock during any cycle, The dishwasher fills up and drains quietly as normal but as soon as the cycle starts it sounds to me like there's an air lock somewhere. If I open the door during cycle all the three spray arms seem to be spining with water coming out of them and the sump has plenty of water in it. It's been installed for about 10 months with no problems. If the cycle motor has an air lock does anyone no what I can do to solve it? I don't want to run the dishwasher for fear off burning a motor out untill I can fix it, Please help as I've got 2 children and need the dishwasher working. Cheers

Thanks foxy for your reply, sorry to hear about your job, its terrible whats happening at the momment!
If it is the recirc pump is there any way I can get to it to open it up? The water still reaches all the spray arms which is a bit confussing, sounds like a bag of spanners tho thats why I daren't use it.
Cheers

Hi, they are not sealed systems so it will not be an air lock.It will more than likely be the recirc pump.As its only 10 months old,you will still be under warranty but I do not know who is covering these calls at the moment seeing as I am one of the redundant engineers.All the best.
