What's Happening

A button on the user interface control is stuck or continuously pressed. The control board detects the stuck input and displays this error to prevent unintended operation.

How to Fix It

Turn off the dishwasher and press each button individually to check for jammed keys. If one or more buttons don't respond, the user interface panel needs replacement. To determine if the interface or the control board is at fault, disconnect the interface wire harness and close the door — if the board starts the drain pump with the interface unplugged, the interface is the problem.
