They turned the circuit breaker off and<strong> left it off for about an hour<\/strong>. After turning it back on, the dishwasher <strong>resumed normal operation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find yourself in a similar situation, flip the circuit breaker off for a good few minutes. Then, cautiously turn it back on. This simple reset often solves the problem, getting your dishwasher up and running again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Power_Outlet_Issues\"><\/span>2.

You may be wondering, <em>&#8220;Jason, what makes GFCI outlets special?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My colleague Damien has a succinct explanation: <em>&#8220;GFCI outlets enhance safety, especially in wet spaces.

It&#8217;s simple. For standard outlets, plug in another device. If it doesn&#8217;t power up, you&#8217;ve found your culprit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I remember discussing this topic with members of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/simplyswider\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Facebook group<\/a>. Many were quick to blame their trusty dishwashers, only to discover that their outlets were actually at fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GFCI outlets can be a bit trickier to diagnose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unplug your dishwasher first. Press the reset button on the GFCI outlet. Test the outlet with another device. If there&#8217;s still no power, it&#8217;s time to replace the outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reminder:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When dealing with electrical issues, always consult a professional.
