How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dishwasher and remove standing water with a sponge before accessing the pump.
- Remove filters: Take out the filters and scoop out as much water as possible from the sump.
- Access pump from inside (if design allows): Some Amica models have a removable pump cover in the sump. Twist it off and inspect the impeller area for foreign objects. Remove any debris carefully.
- Access from base (if needed): Remove the base panel, detach the pump, and clear any obstructions from the housing.
- Reassemble correctly: Ensure the pump cover and seals are properly seated to prevent leaks and future blockages.
