      If your Hotpoint dishwasher isn't draining water, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the wash cycle has completed. Inspect the water drain hose for any bends. Make sure the drain duct isn't clogged. Also, verify that the filter isn't clogged with food residues and confirm the drain hose height is correct.

      If dishes and glasses from your Hotpoint dishwasher are not clean, it could be due to several factors. Ensure the crockery is arranged properly and that the spray arms aren't blocked by dishes. Select a more intensive wash cycle. Check that you're not using too much detergent or an unsuitable type, which can cause excessive foam. Verify that the rinse aid compartment lid is closed correctly and that the filter isn't dirty or clogged. Also, ensure the refined salt level is adequate and the height of the dishes is compatible with the rack adjustment. Finally, inspect the spray arms for clogged holes.

      If your Hotpoint crockery isn't drying properly, it could be because you selected a wash cycle without a drying program. Also, check if the rinse aid has been used up or if the rinse aid dispenser setting isn't suitable. Note that water drops are normal on crockery made from non-stick material or plastic.

    Why Hotpoint dishwasher won’t load any water and it is blocked with flashing lights?
    • S
      Scott LynchAug 28, 2025
      If your Hotpoint dishwasher won’t load water and shows flashing lights, ensure the main water supply is on and the tap is open. Check the water inlet hose for bends. Clean any clogs in the filters and drain duct. After checking and cleaning, try switching the dishwasher off and on, then start a new wash cycle. If the issue continues, it is recommended to turn off the water tap, remove the plug and call the Service Centre.

    Why Hotpoint LSTF 9H123 Dishwasher leaves dishes and glasses covered in a white film?
    • M
      Michael AbbottSep 1, 2025
      If your Hotpoint dishwasher leaves a white film or limescale deposits on dishes and glasses, ensure you're using refined salt. Adjust the water hardness setting to a suitable level. Check that the salt and rinse-aid dispenser caps are properly closed. Also, make sure the rinse aid hasn't run out or the dosage is sufficient.

    Why my Hotpoint Dishwasher makes excessive noise?
    • C
      Courtney LopezSep 8, 2025
      If your Hotpoint dishwasher is making excessive noise, it might be because dishes are rattling against each other or the spray arms. Make sure dishes are properly placed and the spray arms can rotate freely. Too much foam, caused by using too much detergent or an unsuitable detergent, can also cause noise.
