Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker, Faulty power outlet, Loose or damaged Electrolux power cord, Failed main control board fuse or board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the breaker before inspecting wiring. Do not work on live circuits.

  • Check breaker and outlet: Reset the circuit breaker and test the outlet with another appliance or a voltage tester.
  • Inspect power cord: Verify the dishwasher's cord is securely connected and not damaged or pinched behind the unit.
  • Door position: Ensure the door is fully closed and latched; some models will not power the UI if the door switch is open.
  • Internal checks: If external power is good, the internal line filter or main control board may have failed. Accessing and testing these components is best done by a qualified technician.
