Model compatibility: Monogram reuses codes across series and model years, so Flashing FAST WASH light may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means

The motor is running, yet the tub stays dry and the FAST WASH light flashes. In the use and care guide’s Problem Solver the symptom reads: motor starts but water doesn’t enter the dishwasher.
Cause and remedy in the guide
Possible cause: the water supply valve is turned off.
What to do: check the water supply valve.
