Our (just over 2 year old) Hotpoint dishwashers salt light came on a few days ago. Sure enough it took about 1Kg of salt tablets. Usually the light doesn't go off immediately, so I didn't worry too much.
Noticed a couple of days later it was still on. Vaguely wondered about Googling it, but got distracted. Then it went off for a couple of days. Then last night it came on. I dropped a couple of tablets into the tank, but it's still on.
Anyone any suggestions as to checks/operations I can carry out. FWIW we live in Brum, so have quite soft water.
