Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before removing the control panel.

  • 1. Power reset: Disconnect the dryer from the mains for 5 minutes, then reconnect and test. This can clear minor UI glitches.
  • 2. Check selector knob: Ensure the program knob is not cracked or slipping on the shaft. Replace the knob if it does not engage properly.
  • 3. Clean buttons: If buttons are sticking, gently clean around them with a slightly damp cloth. Do not allow moisture into the electronics.
  • 4. Access UI board: Remove the top panel and then the control fascia to access the user interface PCB. Check that ribbon cables and connectors are fully seated.
  • 5. Inspect for damage: Look for signs of liquid ingress, corrosion, or burnt components on the UI board. If present, the board should be replaced.
  • 6. Professional replacement: UI board replacement is straightforward but should use the exact Zanussi part number. If unsure, contact a technician.
