Steve for Model Number SHU5312 UC/11 The dishwasher runs and washes normally but continues running while displaying a "1". I replaced the Heater relay to no avail. Followed a procedure to measure resistance on the Aqua Sensor and find it reads less than 1ohm. The Manual indicates that it should read about 1 Meg ohm. Pulled the sensor and got the same resistance. Do you think that is causing the continuous running and display of "1" or do I have problems. All other resistance measurements seem to be ok. Thank you
Answer Hello Steve, This is normally cause by a water valve not opening all the way which in turn causes the water to drizzle out of a port hole into the main base, floating the flood switch. This causes the drain pump to run constantly and in some cases, (depending o the wiring configuration), even with the door opened. Removing the kick panel and moving the red flood switch activating rod will turn it off. Water will be standing in the main base if this is the issue. This water has to be removed with a towel or shop vac, (be careful not to damage the styrofaom float). Replacing the water valve 00425458 and removing the standing water in the main base corrects the issue. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, December 18, 2014
