My Zanussi DES 959 keeps stopping with the alarm AL3, I have tried un-plugging it to do a reset but dosn't help. Any ideas on what this alarm means so that I can fix it?
My Zanussi DES 959 keep stopping with AL5. I removed the cold water inlet valve and gave a very good clean to remove the line scale. That fixed I now get AL3 so have to try and fix this one.

i have the same problem with my dishwasher of the same model. i switch it off and back on and sometimes it is ok but it rarely goes through a whole cycle without AL3 flashing up. at the moment it flashes AL7 as soon as i turn it on and wont do anything!!! they are rubbish!!!

the alarm means that something is rattling too much or a spray arm is banging. I have the same problem, the only time we can run through a full programme is when it is empty, so if you have fixed yours please let me know
