    This service manual is intended for use by persons having electrical and mechnical training and a level of knowledge of these subjects generally considered acceptable in the appliance repair trade. Electrolux Home Products, Inc. cannot be responsible, nor assume any liability, for injury or damage of any kind arising from the use of this manual.
  • Page 5: Operation

    OPERATION In order to address service issues with the Electrolux 5000 Series dishwasher, the primary elements of its operation are described below, as well as its physical components. STATIC FILL The cycle begins by activating the drain pump, ensuring the sump is empty.
  • Page 6: Wash System

    OPERATION WASH SYSTEM Once filling is complete, the dishwasher enters the pre-wash phase. The pre- wash phase conditions the soil with water and detergent to prepare it for removal in the main wash phase. Once water enters the tub, the pump draws the water into the sump through a primary filter at the Sump bottom of the tub to prevent food from circulating...
  • Page 7: Main Wash / Temp Assure

    OPERATION MAIN WASH / TEMP ASSURE After the final reading by the soil sensor, the unit drains before starting to fill for the main wash. The tub fills, with the wash motor starting after the low level pressure switch is activated. The detergent dispenser now opens, introducing detergent into the wash cycle.
  • Page 8: Rinse Phases

    OPERATION RINSE PHASES The first rinse phase following the pre-wash portion of a wash cycle. During this rinse phase, the motor ramps up by 100RPM/second to full speed (2800RPM). Once at full speed, however, the motor will cycle between 1600RPM and 2800 RPM throughout the rest of this rinse phase.
  • Page 9: Cycle, Systems & Components

    CYCLE, SYSTEMS & COMPONENTS Knowledge of the dishwasher’s cycles and systems is necessary in diagnosing any potential operational problems. Methods for diagnosing these problems, such as taking resistance readings and testing for closed circuits are outlined in the following section as well. DISHWASHER CONTROL All of the functions and operations of this dishwasher are dictated and monitored by the electronic control.

  • Page 17: Temperature Sensor And Soil Sensor

    CYCLE, SYSTEMS & COMPONENTS TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND SOIL SENSOR The electronic control reads information from two sensors to adjust the wash cycle. The Thermistor and soil sensor are integrated into the same housing mounted to the right side of the sump. Both sensors extend into the outer section of the sump to perform independent tasks.
  • Page 18: Checking The Soil Sensor

  • Page 19: Dispenser

    CYCLE, SYSTEMS & COMPONENTS DISPENSER The dispenser consists of two dispensers in one housing, controlled by the use of one wax motor actuator. The first time the actuator is energized in the cycle, detergent is dispensed. The second time the actuator is energized, rinse agent is dispensed.
  • Page 20: Fan Dry Unit

    CYCLE, SYSTEMS & COMPONENTS FAN DRY UNIT Dishes are dried with a fan driven condensate system. This system is made up of (refer to Figures 20, 21): Fan Dry Motor Air Intake Condensate Duct Condensate Vent As the dishwasher completes its final drain, the fan dry motor forces saturated air across cool baffles in the condensate duct, resulting in the removal of moisture from the air.
