How can I reset my Bosch series 3 dishwasher.

The specific steps to reset a Bosch Series 3 dishwasher can vary depending on the model, but here is a general method that may work:
  1. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the Power button or unplugging it from the power source.
  2. Wait for at least 30 seconds to allow the dishwasher to fully power down.
  3. Press and hold the Start button for about 5 seconds.
  4. While still holding the Start button, turn the dishwasher back on.
  5. Release the Start button when you see the display or indicator lights change, which may take a few seconds.
  6. Press the Start button again to initiate a new cycle, and the dishwasher should now be reset.
If this method does not work for your specific Bosch Series 3 dishwasher model, you can try consulting the dishwasher's user manual for specific reset instruction

I have an electrolux dishwasher model #=EIDW6105gS0. All lights are flashing on the console and will not let me select any of the modes...will not run at all. Is there any way to reset? I have tried...

Hi,

Sorry for the delay in replying to you, but there has been a technical fault and we have not been able to answer your question.

The 6105G does not have a numeric display, so all of the LEDs flash when a fault is detected, but this does not indicate which fault has been detected. Resetting the dishwasher should clear the error message, but if there is a fault, the flashing LEDs will return after resetting the washer and further investigation will be needed to determine the cause of the fault.

You should be able to reset the dishwasher by entering the engineering test mode and then cancelling it:

1. Switch off the main power to the dishwasher or reset the breaker.
2. Switch the power on again.
3. Press SANITIZE and DELAY START simultaneously.
4. Press the START/CANCEL button to exit
5. Reset the power again.

Please try the above, then let me know if you the error persists and you need further assistance. You can reply to me by clicking on "Add a Comment" below your question.

Regards,
BElectric
