Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the control panel.
- Check child lock: Refer to the Haier manual to disable child lock (often by holding specific buttons for several seconds).
- Try different cycles: Select another program to rule out a single-program fault.
- Inspect control panel: Remove the console and check the start button and its circuit board for cracks, stuck buttons, or moisture.
- Clean and dry: If detergent or moisture has entered the panel, gently clean and dry the area before reassembly.
- If still unresponsive: The user interface or main PCB may need replacement.
