Symptom / Description

FAULT

The device reports an anomaly on wash arm 1 and the cleaning results are disappointing.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

The monitoring system did not register the rotation of the upper wash arm (1). The cause may be an obstruction, insufficient water pressure or rotation monitor failure.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Unplug the appliance electrically. Pull out the upper basket to inspect the wash arm 1. Check that it swings freely. Unclog the spray nozzles if they are clogged. If the error persists, the speed sensor or its circuit should be examined by a technician.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !Electrical Safety Protocol: Disconnect electrical mains plug or trip dedicated circuit breaker before servicing.
  • !Wait at least 5 minutes before opening any casing panels to reset volatile microcontrollers and bleed residual charges.
  • !Operate in a dry workshop environment; never bypass internal electrical thermal cutouts.
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Check appliance leveling with a spirit level; adjust threaded leveling feet for perfect stability.
  • Check door and lid perimeter rubber gaskets for tears, gaps, or foreign object obstruction.
  • Inspect shock absorbers, suspension springs, and rubber dampers for mechanical fatigue or excessive play.
