Can't choose just one option like "Rinse & hold" on the control panel.

I would like to be able to use just one of the options on the control panel/touch pad. First I push the start button, and all the lights start to blink. I then press the "rinse and hold" button. This does not prompt the upper left light to turn red, like it says in the manual. Instead, all of the lights continue blinking, alternately. I can't get just the "rinse and hold" light to glow red, indicating this is the option I have chosen. This machine's control panel has never worked properly and it has been very frustrating, considering the cost. What is causing this problem and what are the solutions. We hardly ever use this ASKO because the control panel has never functioned like fit should.

Try this
turn the machine on at the wall select what you want then press the start button
it is possible that you are trying to change the program after it is started and that is causing conflict

SOURCE: Asko D1796 will not start properly

It sounds as if you may have A bad control board. It could be causing the heater element to come on when its not supposed to (usually a stuck relay) and not filling the machine with water. you could also have a bad control board AND a bad fill valve, as a stuck relay for the heater shouldn't affect the fill valve circuit. The bad news is that these asko control boards are $350 to $450 for just the part, the good news is that the control board is under a 5 year warranty (for only the part, not the labor to change it) as are the pump motors and any timers. Also, if you are just out of warranty, find your date of installation, as asko warranties start when you install it, not when you buy it (if you moved into the house and it was there when you moved in, and you are the first owner, submit a date of occupancy and that's when your warranty started)

SOURCE: Asko 1585 Dishwasher

do they flash lik all on one side then the other? Start a cycle, then open the door. Do the lights flash the same way when you open the door as when it stops? if soyou may have a door that needs to be adjusted so it closes better. when the cycle ends, is there any standing water in the bottom? if so you may have a poorly routed drain hose or a partial clog in it. Last, pull the bottom panels off and look inside the bottom of the dishwasher and see if there is standing water down there . If ther is you have aleak somewhere or a bad drain pump. You r only other choice is a bad pressure switch. If youve already adjusted the water fil to the proper level ( just up to the grey plastic housing that the lower wash arm sits on) tehre really aernt any more options. Hope this helps!

SOURCE: lights blinking

I have a 3122 and had a similar problem, Lights flashing, humming noise and me standing there scratching my head! I emptied all the water out of the filter basket and then tilted the machine backwards (only needed about 20 degrees) and then the rest of the water drained all over the floor... about 1/2 a liter. Now its all good! and the missus is nun the wiser!

SOURCE: asko 1805 - all idnicator lamps blinking

Searched some more on this site and found the following from a guest (thanks). It solved my problem, the base where all the electrics and plumbing is located had a pool of water. I had to pull the unit out as I could not access this area from the front.

This is a common problem with the Asko1805. The machine is equipped with overfill protection. Water has leaked through to the bottom pan and has triggered the overflow shutoff float. You must get the water out of the bottom of the dishwasher. Unscrew the kickplate and the metal cover to access the bottom of the machine where the pumps and motors reside. Use a sponge to slop up the water in the pan. Blow dry the bottom. The machine will reset itself as soon as the water is gone.

SOURCE: Lights on the Asko D1996 keep blinking

This depends on the blinking pattern. Of the eight lights on the panel, if the four on the left blink on and then the right four lights blink on as the left ones go off, and keep blinking back and forth, that just means the mode has been set and the Start button pressed. After closing the door it should just continue on wherever it is in the cycle. (This is normal operation).
If you hold down the Start button, this resets the dishwasher. If you then close the door, nothing will happen because it thinks it's done.
If the lights are blinking in a different pattern, such as they all blink on and off in unison, that indicates an error condition and needs to be diagnosed. If the pump is not running constantly, then at least it's not because water is leaking out somewhere.

I have a Jura Impressa J9 but there is no Descale or Decalcify option to choose

If your machine is not displaying the descale or decalcify option, you can try forcing it into descaling mode. To do this, press and hold the rotary switch until "RINSE" is displayed. Briefly press the rotary switch again until "RINSE" lights up. Turn the rotary switch until "DECALCIFY" is displayed. Product Support - JURA

    LG WD-10160 TP. Display is showing code CL and no buttons work. I think it may be child lock but can't turn it off. The problem occurred when I turned off the machine & disconnected the water...

    You are quite right, the Child Lock is engaged.

    3 options for you depending on the machine:

    Find the two buttons Temp and Options in the panel. Turn ON the machine, press these two buttons together for 3 seconds and that should reset it.

    Or

    It might have a little kids face above a lock key, inbetween the wash and rinse buttons, hold these for 3/5 seconds and it should work

    Or

    If it has a program selector twist dial, set the selector to off or the end of a program (If it doesn't have, don't worry) Then, unplug from the mains. Leave for 20 minutes without tampering.

    Power back on and the machine should have reset

    My microsoft is not opening, they said that l should use the control panel to repair it

    They're partially correct. What you need to do is open Control Panel and choose Add or Remove Programs. Scroll down to Microsoft Office 2007 and select Change (NOT Remove). A window should open that gives you the option to Repair. Select that option and it should resolve your issue.

    If your using Windows 7 it's a slightly different process. Open Control Panel, click Programs and Features, then select Office 2007 and select Change. Once again choose Repair and you should be good to go.

    My washing machine says control locked

    Hello there
    Try putting the machine into diagnostic mode. If it won't enter diagnostic mode, then you need to replace the main control board.

    DIAGNOSTIC TEST

    The washer must be empty and the control must be in the OFF

    state before pressing the touch-pad sequence to start the test.

    Starting the Test Mode

    ? Close the door.

    ? Push CONTROL/ON (if present on this model).

    ? Select the DRAIN/SPIN cycle.

    ? Select NO SPIN by pressing the SPIN SPEED touch-pad.

    ? Push PREWASH OPTION four times within five seconds. (If

    PREWASH OPTION is not present on this model, press EXTRA

    RINSE four times within five seconds.) C:00 will light up on the

    display.

    If the Starting procedure fails, push the PAUSE/CANCEL touch-pad,

    then repeat the starting procedure.

    Test Program Control

    In order to advance to the next step of the test procedure, push

    PREWASH OPTION touch-pad two times. If PREWASH OPTION is not

    present on this model, press EXTRA RINSE two times.

    Somehow, I managed to widen my on-screen cursor in Windows XP. I don't like it but I don't know how I got there and I want to revert to the slimmer version.

    Open XP's control panel. Find the icon, (Picture of a mouse) & double left click on it. Mouse Properties window will open. Under Scheme, make sure the window reads, Windows Default (system scheme).
    Under Customize: choose the pointer you prefer to use.
