- Faulty thermal fuse – If your dishwasher is overheating, the thermal fuse will blow to cut off power to the unit. Sometimes fuse will blow if it is faulty. Test with a multimeter to check for fuse shows discontinuity. If there is no continuation, it needs to be replaced.

No Water
- Turn ON the dishwasher and start the normal run cycle.
- After five minutes, stop it by pulling the release handle. Now, the safety switch will stop the heating process automatically.
- Check the bottom pan or basin of the machine and assess the dishes for moisture. If the basin has one inch of standing water and dishes have a moderate amount of condensation, then consider that the water inlet valve works properly.
- If the dishwasher is dry, turn off the water supply and pull the access panel off the front bottom of the machine by removing screws that hold the panel.
- Now, loosen the compression coupler which is placed on the copper pipe that connects to the inlet valve. You can use a wrench for loosening the compression valve.
- Place a container under the copper line and slowly turn on the shut off valve. If water comes from the water line into the container, means your water line works properly and the dishwasher inlet valve is defective. If water doesn’t come out of the line, the problem with shut off valve. So, replace Samsung dishwasher shut off valve.
No Heat
- To troubleshoot this problem, first, you need to turn off the control breaker of the Samsung dishwasher.
- Next, remove the access panel in the machine’s front by removing screws. After removing the panel, find out the terminal wires for the heating element. You can locate them at the element in the unit’s bottom pan. See where the heating element ends go through into the pan bottom.
- Once you located terminal wires, disconnect the wire connectors from the terminal by pulling on the connectors.
- Now, test with a multimeter. Touch the leads on the multimeter against wire terminals on each end of the heating element. If the multimeter shows off zero, then consider that element is working properly and the problem is with internal circuitry. When the multimeter shows other than zero, the heating element is defective.
