How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before adjusting switches or hinges.

Steps:

  • Verify door closure: Ensure nothing is blocking the door and that it closes flush with the cabinet.
  • Inspect gasket and hinges: Replace a damaged gasket and adjust hinges so the door aligns properly.
  • Test door switch: See E9 for testing and replacing the door switch or magnetic sensor.
  • Control board: If the switch is working but the light remains on, the control board's light driver may be shorted and require replacement.
