[Solved] Amica ZWM 676S - Dishwasher Does not start, salt and rinse aid LEDs are flashing

Best answers LABEL_AI_GENERATED

Why does an Amica ZWM 676S dishwasher turn on ECO, beep once, and then alternately flash the salt and rinse aid LEDs without starting a wash cycle?

The thread points to a control/module fault rather than a salt or rinse-aid problem, so first check the door wiring and the anti-flood sensor [#16785395] [#16793021] One reply recommends removing the door fronts and casing, tipping the dishwasher onto its back, taking off the bottom tray, and testing the door-connection cable for breaks or shorts to ground with a meter [#16785395] Amica service also reportedly diagnosed the symptom as a module problem and предложили a module replacement, while the owner suspected the module capacitors [#16793021] A different user with the same model got the dishwasher working again by resetting the programmer: hold the switch, program-selection, and start buttons simultaneously until the Eco program starts [#16833132]

    I have a problem with the Amica ZWM 676 S dishwasher. After starting, it turns on the ECO indicator, makes a single squeak, then blinks alternately with the salt and rinse aid level indicators. How she behaves can be seen in the video below: [film: a1bacda853] https://filmy.elektroda.pl/85_1508661555.mp4 [/ film: a1bacda853] What's wrong with her?

    Due to the fact that my nicer half is pushing, I will gladly order the repair of this dishwasher. Maybe someone from Dear Colleagues wants to take up?
    The dishwasher is in Sosnowiec.

    No, it is dry inside, and the outflow and inflow are unobstructed. Salt and rinse aid were topped up and I checked also the contactors in the door handle are OK.

    In the "door handle": there are contactors - two pieces. So that the dishwasher "knows" if it has a locked door. I checked all cables

    Yesterday, a nice lady from Amica service contacted me - 4 days after reporting the failure. She proposed a technician visit (for PLN 170) and a module replacement for only PLN 370. She confirmed that what you can see in the video is a problem with the module, but somehow I couldn't decide to repair it at this price. Still looking for someone to repair. I suspect replacing the capacitors will solve the problem.

    Hello.
    I had the same problem in the same Amica ZWM476S model. After several interrupted washing cycles (no power - accidentally pressing the button). I reset the dishwasher (programmer) please press and hold the buttons: switch - program selection - start all 3 simultaneously. After that the Eco program started and the dishwasher was working. I hope it works, too, because the cost of the programmer is half the price of the dishwasher.
    Good luck

    Hello
    I have a question for my colleagues - how did this failure end because I have a similar problem in the same model of the dishwasher only apart from the salt level and rinse aid indicator lights flashing, the rinsing program indicator lights up for a moment.

    After unplugging for 40 days and restarting, the dishwasher works as if nothing ever happened. More than six months now. Magic?
