    Dishwasher will not start cycle
    I have an integrated dishwasher - the maunual says Bernstein on the back but I believe it may be a Servis. When you turn it on it drains, then sounds as though it is starting to fill and goint to wash but after about 40-60 seconds stops and gives 2 beeps.

    It seems to do what it would do when switched onto the rinse cycle. Do you know what this could be and if it is worth repairing, it is about 7 year old

    Sounds like the innards of the dishwasher is somehow clogged and needs unclogged. The reason it stops is due to the clog so the motor does not get worn out. I would think if this is the only problem the machine has had in 7 years, then have it repaired vs buy a new one.

    I have had all the pipes off and the filter out of the bottom cleaned and checked for kinks blockages etc but made no difference any idea where the clog might be?
