The unit has a leak causing floor sensor activated.
1- Unplug power cord.
2- Pull oull half way the drawer so an access from the bottom left could be obtained.
3- Use Paper towel or small towel to dry out the water on the bottom housing.
4- Wait for 48 hour so the sensor can be dry out.
Plug in the power cord. The unit will act as normal.
Your problem is solved.

However you can't operate since you know you have a leak problem. Let me know how it in progress and you decide to call service to fix it or I can guide you to fix it. Good luck.

Assuming you are getting the F1 error in both drawers.

This means there is water at the base of the housing under the bottom drawer.

Turn power off and take the drawer out. You will have to pull out the plastic pins on either side and get the front cover off. This will enable you to pull the drawer out from the slide bar for better access. Use towels and hair dryer to get rid of all the water. The flood switch is mounted on the power board. Use hair dryer to dry this out.

Put everthing back and turn power on.

Post a comment if this is not fixed or the F1 is only coming in one of the drawers.
Please rate this solution.

SOURCE: Cannnot turn off or move

The F1 code indicates an overfill condition. One of the most common causes for an overfill fault is that the dishwasher cannot pump out the dirty water due to a plugged drain hose.

The F1 fault could be from your lid actuators not working properly or the lid seal needs to be replaced or check ur flood sensor it located at the back under a black plastic cover, the sensor is the little add on at the left. make sure u turn off power before touching anything

Hope helps.
