Our dishwasher model eidw6105gs1 will not start. You push the start and nothing happens. The lights are steady.

Is it getting water?

Hello Pamela, I am happy to assist you!


Let's try resetting the dishwasher by either unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker to the off position. It is important to wait roughly ten minutes and then turn dishwasher back. Confirm that the door is properly latched and try selecting a cycle. If resetting the power does not correct the issue, it could potentially mean a number of things: a potential wiring failure, damaged cord, and faulty power supply or control board. Because it could be a number of any one of several underlying causes, I would recommend contacting a professional to properly diagnose and repair the appliance.

Assuming the mains power circuit breaker has not tripped, it is likely an internal thermal fuse has tripped.

Can you please provide the full model no. of you dishwasher

Some fault in the dishwasher is causing it to believe the door is not locked.

I would check the door lock.

check this youtube video out for the location of the door switch.

(quality of video may not be the best but gives an idea of its location).

If you can give me the exact model number I can find out more details of the problem you are having.

What is the make and model so we can better assist you? In the mean time shut power off to the unit briefly, then turn it back on and try a normal cycle. Will be watching for a make and model here.

is it on steady??? or blinking??? if on steady try pressing nad holding the button with the "lock" symbol on/or above it, thinknits the heat button, for 3 secs it will "unlock" the controls, if blinkin then its a diff issue, may be a bad door switch not recognizing hte door being closed therefore wont start,
