To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death, disconnect power to dishwasher before servicing,
unless testing requires power.
Manual Function Test
Field Service Test
A Manual Function Test may be started by pressing the Normal Wash key
5 times followed by the Start key within 6 seconds.
A Field Service Test may be started by pressing the Heavy Wash key 5 times
followed by the Start key within 6 seconds. This test must be performed with
clean water to insure proper sensor performance.
The Normal Wash LED will Flash 3 times indicating manual test mode is
active. Specific keypads will turn on or off a component as follows:
“88” will appear in the display (if available*) and the following sequence of
events will occur:
Heavy Wash

When a component is activated by pressing a specific keypad, the LED above
the keypad will be On. The test will cancel 120 seconds after the last keypad is
pressed. The display (if available) will show ‘99’ until the remaining timeout
period is less than 99 seconds. At this point it will countdown until the mode
times out, is cancelled, or another key is pressed. To cancel test, press the
Start / Cancel keypad.
Time frame for Thermistor/Turbidity Sensor check & calibration may vary
slightly.
The Field Service Test will not repeat. The Heavy Wash LED will Flash during
the test mode. Indicator lights (except Heavy Wash and the Display) will
illuminate per Sales Floor Demo Mode. If the dishwasher door is opened
during the test, the test sequence will pause, and resume when the door is
closed. To the cancel test, press the Start / Cancel keypad.
Sales Floor Demo Mode
Press Extra Rinse keypad 5 times within 6 seconds. The LEDs will illuminate
in a progressive order until all are lit. All LED’s will stay on for 1 second then all
go off simultaneously. The display (if available) will begin at ‘50’ and sequence
down to ‘0’ at a 1 second interval and repeat until this mode is terminated. This
mode will repeat.
The control has been designed to test the Sensor Memory and Motor. During
the Field Service Test, if a fault has been detected, the test will abort any time
after the motor current has been checked and 2 or more LED's will begin to
Flash. A Memory / Software Check will occur immediately after the test is
To cancel, press the Start / Cancel keypad.
Diagnostic Tips
started. The (See Note**) LED and one of the following:
To check control LEDs, enter Sales Floor Demo Mode. If control fails to
perform as described, replace control. To check control and components, enter
Field Service Test. If control fails to perform sequence as described, and a
fault is detected, determine failure as described in the Field Service Test. If a
load component failure has been diagnosed, proceed to the Manual Function
Test. To check individual load components for proper operation, enter Manual
Function Test. Follow test procedure as described. Repair or replace
component as needed.
