How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance and close the water tap.
- Clean filters and spray arms: Remove and thoroughly clean all filters and both spray arms. Ensure arms spin freely.
- Listen for pump: During a wash cycle (with caution), listen for the sound of the circulation pump. A humming noise without water movement suggests a jammed pump.
- Access pump: Remove the base panel and inspect the circulation pump. Clear any debris from the impeller area.
- Replace pump: If the motor is silent or seized, replace the circulation pump assembly with the correct Zanussi part.
