Default Dishwasher buttons not working
Brand: Electrolux
Model Number: EDW5500DSS
Age: 1 - 4 years

First signs of trouble was when the only button that worked was the delay cycle. Now none of the buttons will start the dishwasher. Some will light up and others will not. Also some parts of the electronic digits are missing on the display.

I took it apart and it looks like over the years there has been a very slight amount of water entering the door.

Do I replace the control board for the touch pad or the main electronic controller?

Any opinions appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark

It is likely the control board touch pad that will have to be replaced.

Here is a link to your dishwasher model EDW5500DSS.

The board is number 418 on the door and control panel breakdown.
