How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing door panels.

  • Confirm door closure: Ensure racks are fully pushed in and nothing obstructs the door seal. Close firmly until you hear the latch click.
  • Check door switch: Test continuity of the door interlock when closed. Replace the door lock assembly if it does not close electrically.
  • Test Start button: For mechanical buttons, check for physical click and continuity. For touch panels, inspect for cracks or moisture. Replace the user interface panel if unresponsive.
  • Power reset: Disconnect power for 5 minutes to reset the control. If still unresponsive, the main control board may require replacement.
