Fisher Paykel Dishdrawer Buttons Not Working

If you find that the buttons on your Fisher Paykel DishDrawer are unresponsive, several common issues might be at play. Here’s a step-by-step guide to troubleshooting and resolving this problem:

Wet Control Panel:

Moisture on the control panel can cause unresponsiveness. If the control panel is wet, wipe it dry using a clean, dry cloth. Ensure that no water is affecting the buttons or the electronic components.

Disconnected Power:

Check the power supply to the dishwasher. Ensure that it is securely connected, and there are no issues with the power source. If the dishwasher is not receiving power, it may not respond to button inputs.

Child Lock or Key Lock:

Fisher Paykel DishDrawers often come equipped with child lock or key lock features to prevent accidental button presses. Check if the child lock or key lock is activated. If so, follow the user manual instructions to disable the lock feature.

Unlatched Drawer:

If the drawer is not securely latched, the buttons may not function. Ensure that the drawer is fully closed and latched. If it’s partially open or not properly closed, the dishwasher may not respond to commands.

To address these issues effectively:

• Wipe Control Panel Dry: If the control panel is wet, thoroughly dry it to eliminate moisture interference.
• Ensure Power Connection: Confirm that the dishwasher is properly connected to a power source and receiving adequate power.
• Disable Child Lock or Key Lock: If the child lock or key lock is active, follow the user manual instructions to disable it.
• Close and Latch the Drawer: Ensure that the dishwasher drawer is fully closed and securely latched for proper button functionality.

By following these troubleshooting steps, you can often identify and address the issues causing the buttons on your Fisher Paykel DishDrawer not to work, restoring normal functionality to your appliance.
