Diagnostic steps
Request a technician
The manual directs the final user to request the intervention of a technician for AL-03; the checks below are technician-level.
Check the probe connection on the board
Technician check 1: verify the tank temperature probe is connected correctly on the power board.
Check the probe terminal
Technician check 2: verify the tank probe terminal is connected correctly.
Replace the probe
Technician check 3: replace the tank probe if it remains interrupted or shorted after the connection checks.
When to call a professional
AL-03 is a probe/wiring fault the manual hands to a technician. If powering the dishwasher off and on does not clear it, call qualified service. Verifying the tank probe's connection at the power board, checking the terminal and replacing the probe all require opening the machine and working on the control board, which is technician work rather than an operator task.
