Possible Causes

Blocked upper spray arm, Low water temperature, Dispenser door blocked by tall dishes, Weak circulation pump on AEG dishwasher

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Switch off the dishwasher before adjusting racks or spray arms.

  • Check loading: Ensure tall plates or pans are not blocking the dispenser door from opening fully.
  • Clean upper spray arm: Remove and clean the upper spray arm to ensure strong water jets reach the dispenser area.
  • Use appropriate program: Select a program with sufficient temperature and duration for tablets, or switch to powder if using very short cycles.
  • Assess pump performance: If spray is weak, the circulation pump may be failing and require replacement.
