Hi there,
Our 6 year old Siemens integrated dishwasher broke down and today it got repaired, I came home from school and I found out that he replaced the "pressure chamber", the old one was on the worktop.
I am interested to find out what that part actually does, so could anyone explain please?
A piccy might help.
Without one my guess is it's the device that checks if the water has reached the correct fill level.
Thanks, it is exactly like this one:
My Neff stopped washing properly and I fixed it by giving that part a good clean. It had been covered in grease and muck which caused it activate the trigger when there was too little water, which in turn lead to a very weak spray.
I'd tried dishwasher cleaner but it never touched this area of the machine.
Can't recall what the yellow bit does.
It operates the other microswitch: dishwashers need to sense both "enough water to wash" and "drained properly".

Thanks, it was filled with grease but the guy who repaired it (from Siemens I believe) just replaced it instead of cleaning it.
On the packet was written: Original pressure chamber, suitable for Neff, Bosch and Siemens.
