Possible Causes

Child lock (key lock) activated, Faulty Start/Pause button, Defective user interface PCB, Loose ribbon cable to main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before opening any panels.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Check child lock: On many Beko models, holding specific buttons (e.g., 3 and 4) toggles child lock. Refer to the user manual and ensure the lock icon is off.
  • Reset machine: Unplug for 5 minutes, then reconnect and try again.
  • Inspect control panel: Remove the fascia and check the Start/Pause button for mechanical sticking. Ensure the ribbon cable to the main PCB is firmly seated.

If the UI board is faulty, it may need replacement.
