If the brand is Electrolux then A1 means "no water" or not enough pressure, to check... unscrew the water hose, if now your wet, the water is fine ??.

1) the nozzles are blockled

I have a Dishlex 302 which had this fault. Initially I thought it was the inline heater element and replaced it. It seemed to work but later no hot water again. Someone here put me on to the problem. There is a dry joint in the control board in the top of the door. This controls the relay which powers up the heater. Unplug it from the mains (very important) and undo the screws around the top of the door (don't take the door right off!) you will be able to wiggle off the front panel containing the electronics. The control board is ealiy disconnected an removed from the machine in its protective plastic cover. Have a look around the PCB and you will see the dry joint. Resolder with rosin core (electronic) solder, reassemble and you should have hot water.

Hi - you should obtain the services of a certified electrolux serviceman to help you. The problem is you have no water flow into the machine, could be a number of things assuming the water has been turned on....

Inlet solenoid is faulty
Filter clogged?
Is the overflow insid ethe wash tank in place?
Pressure switchs on the boiler and tank working?
May have to reprogarm a new main board if this one is faulty - which could be the case.

I do actually service these as part of my job - but the components are specialy made for these and they ain't cheap - I think you are aware of that.

In most cases if the coil is fauty on the inlet you can retrofit another as long as is similar in design and voltage ..

BUT BE CAREFUL - YOU FIX AT YOUR RISK - WILL NOT BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS.

Cheers

Check that the arm outlet jets at the trailing end of the arms are not blocked with food particles and other solid matter. This often happens and the arm is unable to turn because the water jet that is supposed to drive the arm does not have the force to rotate it with the result is that the upper dishes do not get enough water and chemicals. It may also cause water to continue dripping onto dried dishes after the the drying cycle has stopped.

Here's all of the info you need to hook it up correctly http://tools.professional.electrolux.com/Mirror/Doc/MAD/ELECTROLUX/English%20US/IDA010.pdf

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

To reset the unit you can leave it unplugged for 15 minutes as there is no other way for reset. C8 error means that the unit is unable to drain properly/completely and you can take off the bottom access panel to clean it completely. If the problem returns then the drain pump needs replacement. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

There is a short circuit in the electric system in the dishwasher. As soon as you shut the hood, the circuit is completed and causes the breaker to trip.

You will need a technician to find the leaky part. Most likely the water is leaking into the motor / pump area causing a short circuit.

Best to disconnect from the mains and check for leaky gaskets. I believe this uses a 3 phase 400V which can be converted to single phase. So also make sure there is no unbalance in the mains power phases if you are using 3 phase supply.
