Possible Causes
Faulty temperature sensor, Heating failure, Turbidity sensor misreading, Control board logic fault
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dishwasher before accessing internal components.
- Check water temperature: Open the door mid-cycle (after 20–30 minutes) to see if the water is hot. Cold water suggests a heating issue.
- Clean sensors: Clean filters, sump, and any accessible sensors (NTC, turbidity) as described in relevant sections.
- Run a different program: Try a short or quick wash to see if the behaviour changes.
- If heating is faulty: Diagnose heater and NTC as per heating fault procedures and replace faulty parts.
- If issue persists: The control board may be failing to advance the program and could require replacement.
