Zanussi Dishwasher won't re-start after reset anti-flood switch?

Hi, My 14 month old Zanussi ZDF231 dishwasher stopped part way through a cycle indicating the anit-flood switch had tripped. I followed advice on here to empty the bottom tray and discovered the thermal sensor in the sump had shifted allowing water to leak. With this now all replaced, emptied & dried out the dishwasher won't start any program. When selected & started it sounds like it's trying to pump / open a solenoid but humming like it's stuck & no water let in. Any thoughts welcomed. Thanks

I had the same problem but have done all the things mentioned on this post and it has not made a difference

After a 2nd investigation, it looked like there was a small float device in the water inlet / salt softener unit that was stuck high. Maybe not allowing the water to re-fill? I tapped the unit until it dropped down, let the unit re-run and it worked ever since.

Thanks for your suggestion CK. I'm sure I had I tried that with no apparent success. I should have said on re-starting the programme, the noise is present for approx 20 seconds then stops with nothing happening. May be relevant or not? Any further help gratefully appreciated.

switch it on and let it run for 10 mins.it should then reset and fill
