Symbols & Indicator Lights
Work out what a control panel symbol or a blinking light is telling you, and whether it needs action right away.

Why Is My Dishwasher's Normal Light Blinking?
A blinking Normal (or cycle) light on most dishwashers means the door isn't fully latched, the cycle is paused, or the machine has detected a drainage or water-fill issue. On many models it's a status indicator rather than a fault code, but the exact meaning varies by brand.

What Does the Snowflake Symbol on a Freezer Mean?
The snowflake symbol on a freezer control panel usually means Fast Freeze (or Super Freeze) mode is active, which temporarily lowers the temperature to freeze fresh food quickly. A flashing snowflake on some models instead warns that the freezer is too warm.
