Possible Causes

Loose communication harness, Damaged auxiliary module (e.g., booster controller), Electrical noise or grounding issues, Defective main control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing control compartments.

Corrective steps:

  • Inspect communication cables: Locate the low-voltage harness between the Champion main board and any auxiliary modules. Reseat connectors and check for pin damage.
  • Check for moisture and corrosion: Ensure the control compartment is dry and free of condensation. Clean any corrosion on connectors.
  • Verify grounding: Confirm that the dishwasher is properly grounded and that no high-voltage cables are routed alongside communication lines without shielding.
  • Module substitution: If available, substitute a known-good auxiliary module to determine if the fault follows the module.
  • Replace main PCB if needed: If wiring and modules test good, the main control board may be defective.

When to call a technician: Communication faults often require specialized tools and parts; professional service is strongly recommended.
