Safety Warning
This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.
If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.
Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before removing any panels.
- Power reset: Turn off the breaker for at least 15 minutes to fully discharge the control board, then restore power and test.
- Check for moisture: Inspect the control panel area for signs of moisture ingress or condensation that could affect the electronics.
- Verify model settings (technician-level): Some Ikea/Electrolux-based dishwashers require configuration codes after board replacement. If the board was recently changed, it may not be correctly configured.
Persistent i80 errors usually indicate a defective main control board. Replacement and configuration should be performed by a service technician with access to the correct configuration codes.
