Dishwasher arms sticking
We've got a Hoover HDI 3Do623D dishwasher, only just over a year old.
Both arms are now catching on various structures in the cavity. The upper arm catches on the lower water outlet on the back panel; the lower arm catches on the plastic structure that houses the water channel on the back panel, and also on the salt reservoir cap. The result is that the machine doesn't wash properly. Anyone got a similar machine and had similar problems? -- Algernon |

I've never had less than 6 years out of a dishwasher, usually more. Might there be any scope for trimming some material away with a Dremel or similar? |

Or claiming under the warranty. I have never seen the need for a dishwasher, and from the number of problems I see around the web that they suffer from its one less thing to go wrong. I bet its badge engineered so I'd first talk to the supplier then Hoover. it may well be a known issue with a batch. Of course I tried Hoover customer support, but all they were interested in was selling me an extended warranty. Apparently the ten-year parts guarantee only applies if you get a service engineer out, in which case you have to pay through the nose anyway. It'll be much cheaper to get the parts from a third party supplier. -- Algernon |

Check the arms are clicked into place properly and none of the brittle bits of plastic have broken off. Seen this before- admittedly on other makes. If you are lucky, it is just a matter of clicking things back. If not, the plastic bits are surprisingly expensive! |
