Electrolux Dishwasher Error Code STATUS LED's Flashing

This condition means the dishwasher door was opened while a cycle was actively running, causing the cycle to pause. The STATUS LEDs that were lit at the moment of interruption begin flashing and stay lit so you can see where in the cycle the machine stopped. It is not a component failure code. Pressing START/CANCEL clears the interrupted state and returns the control board to normal standby.

Yes, flashing STATUS LEDs indicate a paused or interrupted cycle, not a hazardous condition. The machine will not resume operation on its own until you press START/CANCEL to clear the state. There is no safety risk associated with this specific condition.

In most cases, there is no repair cost at all since pressing START/CANCEL resolves the flashing LED condition for free. If the issue is caused by a failing door latch or door switch that repeatedly triggers false interruptions, replacement parts and labor could range from around $50 to $200 depending on the specific component and whether a technician is needed.

Press the START/CANCEL button to clear the cycle interruption. This signals the control board to exit its held state and reset the LED indicators. Once cleared, you can start a new cycle from the beginning or leave the dishwasher in standby mode.

Pressing START/CANCEL is the correct method to clear this specific condition, as referenced in Electrolux procedures for this model range. A full power reset by unplugging the unit or tripping the circuit breaker may also clear the held state, but the START/CANCEL button is the recommended and most direct approach.
