Fuse Tripping

[gsfrontera]

Hi all.

Our dishwasher keeps tripping the fuse in our house. Its worked fine for many months but it started last night and now whenever you turn on the dishwasher it happens. Do any of you guys know what the best way forward is? Do I change the fuse in the plug? Bin the dishwasher?

Im not very clued up when it comes to stuff like this so please be gentle!

Thanks in advance folks!

Firstly, unplug the disahwasher, and pluyg something else into that socket to prove that irt is the dishwasher and not the socket causing the issue.

(My money is on the dishwasher)

It is most likely that the dishwasher is leaking internally somewhere, and the electrickery bits are getting damp or properly wet.

If you are not comfortable taking things to bits to check, time to either call someone in to take a look, or replace the dishwasher.

Problem with calling someone in, is that it could turn out to cost an arm and a leg, wheras a replacement machine only costs an arm, a leg, and a bit of torso!
