How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before inspecting electrical connections.

  • Door switch check: Remove the inner door panel and inspect the door lock assembly. Tighten mounting screws and ensure the switch actuates reliably.
  • Inspect wiring: Check the harness between the door and main control board for signs of wear or broken conductors, especially where it flexes.
  • Mains connection: Verify that the terminal block or mains filter connections are tight.
  • Ventilation: Ensure the control area is not blocked and that steam is not condensing excessively around the electronics.

If the problem persists, the main control board may be failing and should be tested or replaced.
