Below is a brief discussion on the reasons for having issues with different buttons of your dishwasher and solutions to them:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_button\"><\/span><strong>Start button<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Corroded_touchpad\"><\/span><strong>Corroded touchpad:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most common issues that can cause the dishwasher to malfunction in its start button is a corroded touchpad.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fix_the_touchpad\"><\/span><strong>Fix the touchpad:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If the touchpad is corroded, you need to fix it immediately by replacing it with another one or fixing the corrosion issue in the touchpad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Touchpad_control_panel_synchronization\"><\/span><strong>Touchpad control panel synchronization:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes if you notice that the touchpad is not working, this can be the reason for the touchpad control panel&rsquo;s failure to synchronize with each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reprogram_the_component\"><\/span><strong>Reprogram the component:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In that case, immediately need to fix the touchpad and control panel to make sure they synchronized with each other properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Control_panel_error\"><\/span><strong>Control panel error:&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The dishwasher buttons may remain fine, but the control panel may have some serious error issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reprogram_control_panel\"><\/span><strong>Reprogram control panel:&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to get rid of this issue is to reprogram the control panel with a professional mechanic or technician so that it can work again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cancel_button\"><\/span><strong>Cancel button&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
