Smeg DWI16 12C Lights 4 & 5 on

[TVRJOHN]

Hi folks
first posting so be gentle ! :rolls:

Having problems with the dishwasher, panel lights 4 & 5 stay on and beeps when switched on.
Tried to reset the usual way with no success

Does this mean its a PCB fault issue ?
Read up on QER Workington for repair, would just like to know if this is the right direction for a solution.

PS is the PCB in the door or in the back ?

Thanks,

Lights 4+5 indicate that the programme has completed. If the door latch is in the closed position, you cannot reprogramme the machine.

Re-set procedure is only appropriate for the E7 error.

Pcb is in the facia – next to the door latch. 😀

Stay safe, power off if you intend to resolve this yourself.

OK thanks for the reply, whenever it has finished a wash cycle before it has never displayed lights 4+5.

So could it be a stuck closed door switch, leaving it in a mode that cannot be reset ?

PS when the door is closed a pump momentarily starts then stops and this keeps repeating, does this help with any diagnosis ?

Thanks

Ah – the pulsing drain pump – this is not good. You’re almost certainly looking at a corruption issue with the PCB. You’d better have a read of THIS ARTICLE. No simple or cheap solution, I’m afraid.
