I may try an "intensive" wash to see if that clears it out, but I'll see what I can take apart first.

Thanks, everyone.   :) :) :)

Dont think it's removable - it's under the floor of the machine.  However, next time it needs refilling, I'll have a look in there with a torch.

it can be removed but if you take the filler off and water should come out see what colour it is, if a pipe gets blocked it send's it in the salt box, run a few times empty.

My Bosch dishwasher deciided to call it a day a few weeks ago....i diagnosed the prob...the machine didnt know how much water was in it....and the overfill sensor kept kicking in and stopping it working. I gave it a clean as best i could and even took the water matrix panel off and gave it a good flushing out, but to no avail.
After asking a domestic repairer about the problem.....his comment was "dishwashers...nightmare to fix"...."how old is it?" When i said about 15yrs old....i agreed with his response......"time for a new one"
So i now have a new Indesit one.....which is rated AAA......and for £200, a more economical machine to run...probably a good decision.

Tho as jereboam may have more time on his hands.....worth giving  it a good go at fixing it.....id spent nearly a day trying to sort mine out....and come to the conclusion, as im self employed, wasting any more time on it....wasnt worth it.

Good luck with it jereboam  :y
