What should I do if my dishwasher is not starting?

If your dishwasher is not starting, we recommend you check the following:

  • Make sure you have not inadvertently set DELAY START or CHILD LOCK.
  • Make sure you have pressed START/CANCEL after selecting your cycles.
  • Make sure you have closed door immediately to avoid having to reselect your cycle/options. If you added a forgotten item or interrupted the cycle, you may need to press START again for the cycle to resume once you close the door.
  • Make sure the dishwasher door is properly closed.
  • Make sure your water supply is turned on.

Check to see if the circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is blown.

For additional help, refer to your Owner’s Manual .
