Viking dishwasher models may have different resetting methods. However, I can provide you with a general approach that is often applicable to many dishwashers, including Viking models. If this method doesn't work for your specific model, I recommend referring to your dishwasher's user manual for model-specific instructions. Here's a general procedure to reset a Viking dishwasher:
Turn off the dishwasher: If it's currently running, press the "Cancel" or "Stop" button to halt any ongoing cycles.
Unplug the dishwasher: Locate the power cord behind the dishwasher and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Alternatively, you can also turn off the dishwasher's power at the circuit breaker.
Wait for a few minutes: Allow the dishwasher to remain unplugged for about 5 minutes. This step helps to ensure that any residual electrical charge dissipates and allows the dishwasher's internal systems to reset.
Plug it back in or turn on the circuit breaker: After the waiting period, plug the dishwasher back into the electrical outlet or turn the circuit breaker back on.
Turn on the dishwasher: Once the power is restored, turn on the dishwasher by pressing the power button or any other button labeled "On" or "Start."
Select a new cycle: If the dishwasher successfully reset, you should be able to select a new wash cycle and begin using the appliance as usual.
Remember, these steps are general guidelines for resetting a dishwasher and might not work for all Viking dishwasher models. If your dishwasher continues to experience issues or doesn't respond to the reset procedure, it's best to consult the user manual or contact Viking customer support for specific instructions and troubleshooting assistance tailored to your dishwasher model.
