Matt P. for Model Number ADB1600AWW1 Have dishwasher in a rental, tenant said last several loads have come out covered with dry soap. Ran through a cycle today and watched it's operation. Unit starts, fills with water, dispenses soap and runs what appears to be normally with the "wash" indicator light lit. Unit continues to run what seems to be a normal duration and shuts off, but "clean" indicator light does not come on and dishes are covered with a heavy soapy residue. All water seems to be filling and draining properly. Unit does not appear to be going through any type of rinse cycle. Trying to determine which electronic part had gone bad, seems like there are only two. Thanks
Answer Hello Matt, You will need to run a service diagnostic cycle and note the fault code that comes up. This is fully explained in the tech sheet that is behind the kickpanel of the unit. To invoke the Diagnostics Cycle, perform the following key presses or actions in less than 6 seconds while in standby: Heated Dry ? Normal ? Heated Dry ? Normal Invoking Service Diagnostics clears all status and last ran information from memory and restores defaults; It also forces the next cycle to be a sensor calibration cycle. Calibration cycles begin with a “sensor check” to determine whether the dishwasher has an OWI soil sensor. If the control detects an OWI, it forces two rinses to occur prior to Final Rinse (to assure clear water), then calibrates the OWI during the final rinse. If flowmeter is operating correctly, the control will turn on the Clean LED when flowmeter counts 3 or more pulses anytime during these intervals. Read More...
