Signs it has failed

Check before you buy

What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your dishwasher and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).

How to replace it

  1. Remove the lower rack
  2. Twist and lift out the filter assembly
  3. Rinse and clean, or fit the new filter
  4. Lock it back into place
  5. Run a short cycle

Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.

Getting the right part

Filters differ in shape and number of parts. Match the part number or your model number.

Check your model number first. It is on the rating plate — usually inside the door frame, on the back or side panel, or inside the appliance. Parts that look identical often differ by model, so match the number to the listing before you order.

Part numbers listed for Hotpoint dishwasher filter

These are manufacturer part numbers that a UK spares retailer lists as Hotpoint dishwasher filter parts (checked 2026-10-29).

The retailer lists 14 Hotpoint numbers for this part type; 10 are shown, because most fit only specific models. Search with your model number to narrow it down.
