Control-panel communication fault

Cut power at the breaker and reseat the connector between the Haier door panel and the base main board
Flex the harness through the door channel to find a fatigued wire that opens the data link as the door moves
Inspect both connectors for corrosion or discoloured pins that interrupt the communication signal
Restore power and note whether Ed shows immediately or after warm-up, separating a broken wire from a failing board
Replace the door control panel first when the harness is sound, then the main board if the fault stays
Pro Diagnostic Tip
Haier routes the panel harness through the dishwasher door hinge, so an Ed that flickers as the door opens and closes is nearly always a chafed hinge harness rather than a dead board.
