Beko Dishwasher Stopped Working – Worongary

Beko Dishwasher Stopped Working – Worongary

A customer in Worongary contacted ISB Electrical because their Beko dishwasher had stopped working. The customer also noticed a burning smell, which indicated a possible electrical fault inside the appliance.

When a dishwasher stops working and has a burning smell, it should not be used until it has been inspected. Possible causes include a damaged main PCB, burnt wiring, short circuit, faulty motor, damaged control module or pest contamination inside the electronic components.

Inspection and Diagnosis

• Checked the dishwasher power supply and safety condition
• Confirmed the Beko dishwasher had stopped working
• Checked for burning smell and signs of overheating
• Inspected the control board area
• Checked wiring and PCB connections
• Found cockroach contamination inside the electronic control area
• Confirmed short circuit damage to the main PCB
• Advised the customer that the main control board was faulty

Fault Found

The fault was caused by cockroaches making a short circuit in the main PCB. The short circuit damaged the electronic control board and caused the dishwasher to stop working.

The burning smell was consistent with electrical damage on the PCB. Cockroach contamination can create tracking, corrosion and short circuits across electronic components, which can damage the control board and stop the dishwasher from operating.

Repair Required

The faulty main PCB requires replacement. The control area should also be cleaned and inspected for any further contamination, damaged wiring or burnt terminals before the dishwasher is tested.

After replacing the main control board, the dishwasher should be tested to confirm it powers on correctly, responds to the controls, fills, washes, drains and completes the cycle safely.

Common Causes of Dishwasher Stopped Working with Burning Smell

• Main PCB short circuit
• Cockroach damage to control board
• Burnt wiring or loose terminal connection
• Damaged electronic control module
• Moisture or corrosion inside electrical area
• Faulty wash motor or pump circuit
• Overheated relay or PCB component
• Electrical tracking across contaminated PCB
