Fisher-Paykel DD603 DishDrawer shows F1 fault code. The Flood Switch has been activated. I need instructions on how to re-set the flood switch. I have two drawers that are possitioned one above the other and the are both giving the error of the activated flood switch. Any advice or instruction is greatly appreciated.
This is what worked for me, unfortunately after paying a dishwasher repair expert 90 bucks who said I have a short somewhere, and yes he could start repairs by changing the PCB after buying it, but the short could be anywhere in the machine taking several hours to diagnose so maybe better for us to just to buy another machine. Not willing to throw in the towel yet, after not liking the standard machines being sold and the high price of new F&P machines after rereading some of your blog posts I did this: 1. Turn breaker off 2. Pull out bottom drawer and put on SIDE 3. Lift up PCB in back corner; no need to disconnect wires 4. Dry bottom of PCB with fingers or cloth....I didn't actually see much moisture but just rubbing all of PCB maybe did something 5. Give PCB a few taps 6. When all quite clean align and dry clip PCB back and tighten the one screw holding it fairly snug 7. With flashlight look at bottom of drawer wires through opaque plastic and see if any appear damaged.....I didn't see any 8. Give the mag drawer sensor a wipe on front right side 9. Put bottom drawer back on rails 10. Put about 10 cups of water INTO the bottom tub. Remember, because the pump wants to run it needs water right away, not air! 11. Turn breaker back on 12. Power both drawers off 13. If no F1 message now test the bottom unit with 12 minute fast rinse cycle, then test top drawer the same I probably would not have been so persistent if I had not over the years bought several parts and installed them myself, and also we actually really like the double drawer design which only F&P has.. Also I was not impressed with the expert not even using any F&P manuals which I had downloaded and kicking me out of my kitchen so he could troubleshoot....which meant partly phoning someone else on his cell in a foreign language.

no power to top drawer
I have a DD603 with both draws blinking F1 and showing a wrench. The machine also sounds like it is trying to empty out but there is no water in it. The manual says the flood switch has been activated. How do I reset it?
