Default Dishwasher trips electrics
Brand: Electrolux
Model Number: zsf 6150
Age: 1 - 4 years

Hi - my dishwasher keeps tripping out the electrics every time I turn it on. I have checked the plug fuse which is ok, and other appliances work perfectly well in the socket.
There is evidence of melting on the main dishwasher lead cable - but, without delving into the appliances "guts" I have no other clues. Any thoughts, suggestions would be much appreciated.
The actual model is a Zanussi zsf 6150 (made by Electrolux)

You have a wire that must be touching the body of the dishwasher or the heating element is shorted.

You will have to take it apart and see where your problem is.
