Error Code: PF Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Power failure.
How to Fix PF Error (Step-by-Step)
- First, check that the dishwasher’s power cord is securely plugged into the wall outlet.
- Go to your home’s electrical panel and check if the circuit breaker for the dishwasher has tripped. If it has, flip it completely off and then back on.
- If you have a fuse box, check for a blown fuse and replace it if necessary.
- Ensure the dishwasher door is fully closed and latched shut. The dishwasher will not start if the door is ajar.
- Press the ‘Start/Resume’ button to begin a new cycle.
- If the power failure was brief, the dishwasher might resume its cycle automatically after a few minutes.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
