Precautions To Be Observed Before
And During Servicing Of Dishwasher
A. There is line voltage present at several
points in the console and below the tub.
Be sure to always disconnect the power
supply at the fuse or breaker box before
replacing a component.
B. Always check the wiring harness and
connectors before performing any test
procedures.
C. Disconnect the power supply before
touching the circuit board, or reseating
electronic control board connectors.

ponents with the wiring harness discon-
nected.
IMPORTANT
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Sensitive Electronics
ESD problems are present everywhere.
ESD may damage or weaken the elec-
tronic control assembly. The new con-
trol assembly may appear to work well
after repair is finished, but failure may
occur at a later date due to ESD stress.
• Use an antistatic wrist strap. Connect the
wrist strap to the green ground connec-
tion point, or to an unpainted metal sur-
face in the appliance.
• Touch your finger repeatedly to a green
ground connection point, or to an un-
painted metal surface in the appliance.
• Before removing the part from its pack-
age, touch the antistatic bag to a green
ground connection point, or to an un-
painted metal surface in the appliance.
• Avoid touching electronic parts, or termi-
nal contacts. Handle the electronic con-
trol assembly by the edges only.
• When repackaging the failed electronic
control assembly in an antistatic bag,
observe the previous instructions.
