Monogram dishwasher: PF on a dishwasher means the power was interrupted

What we can confirm
Code PF, from the manufacturer's own documentation
This code has no number, because this equipment has no display to put one on. The appliance signals it instead — an alarm, a symbol or a pattern of lights — and what it means is recorded in the documentation that ships with it.
The code
PF
A power failure has occurred. Not a problem with the machine — a note that the supply was interrupted mid-cycle. On a fully integrated machine this is displayed on the TOP EDGE of the door, which is only visible when the door is open. Most owners have never seen it.

What else belongs to the dishwashers
On this make a code belongs to the appliance rather than to a product line. These are the other conditions this machine can display, and the models that can show this one — a display often has more than one thing to say, and the model number decides what any of it costs to put right.

About Monogram dishwasher: PF on a dishwasher means the power was interrupted
What the appliance is actually doing
A power failure has occurred. Not a problem with the machine — a note that the supply was interrupted mid-cycle. On a fully integrated machine this is displayed on the TOP EDGE of the door, which is only visible when the door is open. Most owners have never seen it.
Which machines this one applies to
Monogram fully integrated dishwashers. Monogram says plainly on their own range and oven table that they cannot list every code for every model past and present, so a code missing from their table is not proof that your appliance cannot raise it — and a code in it is not proof that yours can. The model number settles it.
What to do about it
- Select the cycle and options you want, press Start, and it runs normally.
- If this appears without any outage you noticed, the circuit is worth checking.
Where this goes next
The job this usually becomes is diagnostic visit, and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call (305) 614-3572 and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
