I've used these guys before and found them pretty good.

ive had a few problems with a previous dishwasher before I replaced it last week.
for most of them I was able to sort myself without even having to open it up (until the very last problem where the 'motor' went!)

might be worth letting us know the problem (along with make and model) and i'll see if I can point you in the right direction?

obviously if the problem is hardware related then you will more than likely need a repair person!

How old is the machine? If it's over 5 years, then it's most likely uneconomical to repair. You'll pay around €100 just to get someone to look at it these days never mind parts.

We had our washing machine and dishwasher go over the last couple of years and just ended up replacing them as a repair was expensive and they were at the age where something else major was likely to fail if we did fork out for the repair.

Ken.

It's 10 years old and is now running cold. Heating element or some such.

That's something to think about Ken.

Thanks for replies, people.
Yours Sincerely, JPX

Buy a replacement heating element on ebay and do it yourself

It's not difficult and would allow you to save for a new one if need be.
