    Most of these processes vary from model to model. The best way to access this function is to locate the technical spec sheet located behind the toe kick plate and follow the specific steps from the manufacturer.

    In my experience, replacing the door switch fixes this issue. Until you do that, it's acting as if the door is open.

    Try to reboot it by shutting down the power and turning back on again. If not, get a technician to check to see if major parts have gone.

    Check if it's properly connected to a power source and ensure that it's plugged in securely. Check the circuit breaker or fuse box. Check if the wall switch is turned on. Be sure the door is fully closed and latched. If these steps don't help, use the SmartHQ App to identify and troubleshoot the problem. These steps may vary depending on the specific model.
