There are several reasons why your dishwasher cannot start, but the most likely culprits are the door lock, electrical controls, timer and thermal fuse. All these are defective components that can prevent the dishwasher from starting up. Below we have compiled some helpful starting points for cooling dishwashers that do not start due to problems with the power supply or faulty door locks.
If your dishwasher does not start when you press the start button and the display light up, the most common problems are caused by a corroded touchpad, ribbon cable, poor power connection or junction box, or a blown thermal fuse on the control panel. Another problem that can occur when the dishwasher does not start but does not work properly is when a thermal fuse on the circuit board has blown through. Dishwashers that do not stop filling due to a defective float switch or timer can also get stuck, and filling water inlet valves can get stuck as well.
To avoid this, the dishwasher should be switched off and not started by the heater, and it should be replaced if the defective heater is not repaired.
If you have a whirlpool dishwasher that lights up when not starting, you may need to open the door and press a combination of “hot” and “dry as normal” (heated and dry as normal). If you press the “Start” button, the dishwasher will be reset to run in the cycle and run for 90 seconds. Check if there are safety settings for children and turn them off to prevent dishwashers from starting.
Depending on the dishwasher brand and model, you can test the start switch yourself with a multimeter. Depending on the dishwasher brand, the start counter can be between 25 and 70%.
If your appliance door is not closed, the door locking switch is defective or your dishwasher control does not receive the energy needed to start and operate your appliance properly. If your timer or its connection to the control panel is broken, the dishwasher will not start and the first timer will never start. Whirlpool dishwashers do not start or close when the door latches do not work.
On some dishwasher models, there is a manual timer that ensures the correct cycle sequence. The timer supplies power to the pump motor, the water pump valve, the heating circuit and the drain pump motor. Dishwasher timers are connected to the control panel, but if the connection is broken, it must be restored.
A common problem with dishwashers that do not start is the door handle or the door switch. A locking mechanism can be defective, preventing the door from locking and preventing the dishwasher from starting. If the locking mechanism is defective, the door cannot be clicked to keep it closed, which means that the dishwasher does not automatically start running.
If the previous troubleshooting tips do not fix the problem and your dishwasher does not begin, it is best to call a certified professional to resolve the problem.
