Dishwasher displays PF and may beep; cycle may have stopped unexpectedly.

Safety First: Turn off power at the breaker before checking electrical connections.

• Check household power: Verify that other appliances and lights on the same circuit are working. Reset the breaker if tripped.
• Inspect junction box: Remove the toe-kick panel and open the dishwasher’s junction box. Confirm wire nuts are tight and no wires are burnt or loose.
• Restart cycle: Close the door firmly and select a new cycle. The PF code should clear.
• Door latch check: If PF recurs when the door is bumped, the door latch or switch may be loose or failing and should be adjusted or replaced.
• When to call a technician: If electrical connections are secure and PF persists, have a professional check for wiring or control board issues.
