What This Part Does

The push-button power switch is mounted behind the dishwasher's control panel and is what physically turns the appliance on and off. Pressing it once completes the mains circuit and powers up the control board; pressing it again breaks the circuit and switches the dishwasher off. Because it is a mechanical push-push switch, the internal contacts and latching mechanism gradually wear with repeated use, which can eventually stop the switch from making a reliable connection.

Common Fault Symptoms

• Dishwasher does not turn on at all when the power button is pressed
• The power button feels loose, stuck, or no longer gives a positive "click"
• The dishwasher needs several presses before it responds
• Power cuts out intermittently during a cycle
• The control panel display or lights do not illuminate when the button is pressed

Repair Difficulty

Moderate. Replacing this switch usually means removing the dishwasher door's outer panel and then the control panel fixings to reach the switch and its wiring, disconnecting the wires (a pair of needle-nose pliers helps here), removing the small retaining bracket, and snapping the new switch into place before reconnecting the wiring and refitting the panels. The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply before starting. If you are not confident opening the appliance casing or working around the wiring, we recommend asking a suitably qualified engineer to carry out the fitting.

Typical Tools Required

• Phillips head screwdriver
• Needle-nose pliers
