Hi, Take the top cover off and click the little red button on the thermostat/overload (small black box). Then try again. Sometimes these trip out as a safety precaution.

It sounds like you're experiencing multiple issues with your Smeg DWAU6D15XT dishwasher. The combination of non-responsive control buttons, unusual display behavior, and a stuck door mechanism could indicate a few different issues. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: 1. **Power Reset:** You've already attempted this step, but it's worth mentioning again. Turning off the dishwasher at the wall for an extended period (such as overnight) can sometimes help reset electronic components. 2. **Check for Jammed Door Mechanism:** If the door won't close properly, it's possible that something is obstructing the door mechanism. Check for any objects or debris around the door or hinges that might be causing the issue. Gently clear any obstructions and try closing the door again. 3. **Check for Water Leaks:** Sometimes, water leaks can trigger safety mechanisms that prevent the dishwasher from operating. Look for signs of water around the base of the dishwasher and address any leaks you find. 4. **Check Child Lock Feature:** Some dishwashers have a child lock feature that can prevent the control buttons from responding. Check the user manual to see if your model has this feature and how to toggle it on or off. 5. **Inspect Door Latch:** The door latch is a crucial component for proper operation. Ensure that the latch is not damaged or misaligned. If it's not engaging properly, it can prevent the door from closing securely. 6. **Circuit Breaker:** Check the circuit breaker that supplies power to the dishwasher. If it has tripped, reset it and see if the dishwasher responds. 7. **Error Codes:** Some dishwashers display error codes when they encounter issues. Refer to the user manual for your dishwasher to interpret any error codes being displayed. 8. **Service Call:** If none of the above steps resolve the issues, it's advisable to contact Smeg's customer support or a professional appliance technician. They can diagnose and address more complex issues that require specialized knowledge and tools. Before attempting any repairs, make sure to unplug the dishwasher or turn off its power supply to ensure your safety. If you're unsure about any aspect of troubleshooting or repair, it's best to seek professional assistance.

There are several reasons why a washing machine may pause during a wash cycle. One possible reason is an unbalanced load. If the load is not distributed evenly in the drum, the machine may pause to redistribute the load and prevent damage to the drum or other components. Another possible reason is a clogged filter or drain hose, which can cause the machine to pause as it tries to drain water from the drum. In the case of the SMEG model WMI-12C7, repeat pausing during wash cycles could be caused by a malfunctioning sensor or control board. These components are responsible for monitoring and regulating various aspects of the wash cycle, such as water level, temperature, and spin speed. If one of these components is faulty, it may cause the machine to pause or stop unexpectedly. To resolve this problem, it is recommended to first check for any obvious issues such as an unbalanced load or clogged filter. If these do not appear to be the problem, it may be necessary to call a professional repair service to diagnose and fix any issues with the sensor or control board. In addition, it is important to properly maintain and care for your washing machine to prevent future issues. This includes regularly cleaning the filter and drain hose, avoiding overloading the machine, and using only recommended detergents and settings.
