✅ Cross Reference Information
Common Symptoms
- No lights or response at the control panel
- Dishwasher stops operating and remains unresponsive after a thermal event
- Open thermal fuse or visibly heat-damaged fuse wiring/connectors
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect electrical power before accessing the console or fuse.
- Verify the dishwasher’s breaker or power supply is present before condemning the fuse.
- With power disconnected, inspect the fuse, terminals, and nearby wiring for discoloration, melting, loose connections, or arcing.
- If qualified to perform electrical testing, check the removed fuse for continuity with a multimeter; an open reading indicates a failed fuse, but does not establish the cause of the overheating.
- If the fuse has opened, inspect related wiring and control-board areas for heat damage before installing the replacement. Do not bypass the fuse.
