FLAVIA BI 45 KASKATA Light does not drain water, although everything works. Why? ⇐ Flavia

[Andrey555]

The dishwasher worked for a little over a year, everything was fine. One day she just stopped switching off. The washing process began to get stuck for some time, and the PMM continued to work until you manually turned it off. For example, in a mode that lasts 2 hours 40 minutes, the time on the countdown timer freezes at 31 minutes, after which the dishwasher can spin something for an hour, or two, or as long as you like until you manually turn it off. During a quick wash, which lasts 40 minutes, the timer freezes at 1 minute before turning off, and also spins something endlessly. At the same time, a suspiciously large amount of water began to remain at the bottom of the car, and there was dirty water up to the rubber bands of the door seal. This has never happened before.
Obviously, during this time frozen on the timer, the washing mode should change. Most likely, drying should begin, and before that the machine should drain the water. But the water does not drain, and drying does not start, and the machine runs endlessly.
I read on the Internet, everything seems simple: either the drain hose is clogged, or the drain pump does not work. I disassembled the dishwasher, turning it upside down, and also removed one side wall, under which there is an air plug that prevents water from flowing from the drain hose back into the machine. Removed the drain pump. I poured water into the drain system through a tube. Water passed freely through all pipes and hoses. Thus, I found out that the DRAIN PIPES ARE NOT CLOGGED.
Well, that means the problem is in the drain pump. I checked the motor of the FUDI PSB-01 pump with a multimeter, it shows a resistance of 174 Ohms. I don’t know how much it should be, but not “1” and not “0”. Since the motor is marked 220-250V and alternating current, I connected it through the old “plug” directly to the outlet. The motor started spinning, i.e. DRAIN PUMP IS WORKING.
I’m running out of options. Explain to me, people who know, why it doesn’t drain the water if everything works and the drain isn’t clogged?

In the lower pan of the machine there is a foam float and a microswitch, on which, when water gets into the pan, the float presses when ascending to turn off the water supply through the inlet hose, in order to prevent the overflow of water supplied through the inlet hose. If the machine has not been used for a long time and water begins to overflow when it is turned on, the float during this time, for many reasons, may stick to the pan and will not float up. Often in individual homes, rats or mice chew through this float. The consequences are the same.

I know about the float. The water fills normally and washes the dishes, but after washing the water cannot be drained. Everything seems to be working though. I don’t understand.

Then maybe your fine mesh filter is dirty? Try cleaning it thoroughly with a brush. More details here: http://posudomojki.ru/viewtopic.php ?f=21&t=172

Andrey555, Hello! I have the same problem with my machine, please tell me how you dealt with it?

The drain pump is jammed. It might work fine for a couple of washes, but jam on the third. Change the pump. The Chinese pump is not reliable. I’ve already encountered this problem with my 3-year-old Flavia.
