Basket not fully inserted, Faulty basket/door microswitch, Failed Start button on touch panel, Control board logic fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before opening the housing.

  • Check basket position: Remove and firmly reinsert the basket until it clicks. Ensure nothing is blocking the rails.
  • Test other buttons: If other buttons respond but Start does not, the touch panel may be faulty.
  • Inspect microswitch: Access the basket door microswitch and verify it clicks when the basket is inserted. Replace if defective.
  • Replace touch panel: If the Start area of the panel is unresponsive while others work, replace the touch control panel assembly.
  • Control board: If the switch and panel are good, the main control board may not be processing the Start command and should be replaced.
