DIAGNOSIS & TROUBLESHOOTING

DIAGNOSTICS CYCLE TIME CHART

Refer to the chart on the next page.
R/A SENSOR ASSEMBLY CHECK
To help detect a failed or misconnected "Rinse
Aid" level sensor, the control should operate
the "Rinse Aid Empty" LED in Diagnostics as it
does during any other cycle.
THERMISTOR OPEN/SHORT
DETECTION
The Diagnostics Test Cycle will illuminate the
"CLEAN" LED and "WATER HEATING" LED. It
lights throughout the operating portion of the
cycle that follows the initial display test interval
whenever it detects a "short circuit," or "open
circuit" on the thermistor input.
NOTE: Warm water must be in the dishwasher
when performing this test. The highest ther-
mistor resistance values the control can detect
as its open circuit criteria are close to the
normal thermistor resistances at room tem-
perature. Consequently, this indicator is only
reliable for "open circuit" detection if warm
water is in the dishwasher.
As a means of testing the accuracy of the
thermistor circuit, the control will turn on the
"SANITIZED/SANI COMPLETE" LED in "Inter-
val 3" of the Diagnostics when it detects a
thermistor resistance of 10 kΩ.
STUCK PRESSURE SWITCH
DETECTION
The Diagnostics Test Cycle will illuminate the
"SENSING/SOAKING" LED throughout the op-
erating portion of the cycle that follows the
initial display test interval whenever it detects
an "open circuit" on the pressure switch (soil
sensor) input. The Diagnostics Cycle also moni-
tors the normally-open soil-sensing pressure
switch input for a "stuck open" condition by
aborting wash "Interval 3," and skipping imme-
diately to drain "Interval 1" if the control detects
an open pressure switch.
DISPLAY TEST
All LEDs, regardless of function, are turned On
during the first interval of the Diagnostics Cycle
as a "Display Test." All LEDs should light, and
all segments of any time display should light. If
any LED does not turn On, there is an open
circuit in the keypad, and the console assem-
bly/keypad should be replaced.
DIAGNOSTICS CYCLES
Pressing the following option keys in the se-
quence shown will start the Diagnostics Test
Cycle:
RINSE ONLY
SANI RINSE
RINSE ONLY
SANI RINSE
Once Diagnostics Cycle is started, the cycle
can be rapid advanced to the next interval
manually by pressing the "Start" key, or the
"Pots & Pans" key. NOTE: The door lid must be
latched after each key press to advance to the
next interval.
RAPID ADVANCE
SERVICE FEATURE
To turn on the "Rapid Advance Service Fea-
ture," start the desired cycle, and then press
and hold the "Start" key for 5 seconds. Once
"Rapid Advance" is turned On, the cycle can be
rapid advanced manually, one interval at a
time, by pressing the "Start" key, or the "Pots &
Pans" key. NOTE: The door lid must be latched
after each key press to advance to the next
interval.
