Possible Causes
Stuck control panel button, Moisture in control panel, Faulty touchpad, Defective control panel PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before removing any control panel parts.
- Power reset: Turn off the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power to see if the error clears. This can reset minor control glitches.
- Inspect for stuck buttons: Press each button on the control panel several times. If any button feels stuck or does not click, gently work it free. Wipe the panel with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
- Check for moisture: If the panel appears foggy or has condensation, leave the door open and allow it to dry for several hours. Avoid using the dishwasher until the panel is completely dry.
- Access control panel: Remove the inner door screws to separate the inner and outer door skins. Inspect the control PCB and keypad for corrosion or water damage.
If bE persists and a specific button is unresponsive, the control panel / touchpad assembly will likely need replacement.
