Mark S for Model Number PDT825SSJ0SS Dishwasher having trouble starting up when start button is pushed. Starts beeping -and blinking - no pauses. We have been able to get it started by shutting it down with the 2 end buttons for 3 seconds, then going to our breaker boxes and turning off the breaker and leaving it for about a minute before turning it back on. Sometimes we go through this routine several times before it finally will start. Once it does start, it runs fine without problems. We have never been able to get it to start up by only using the buttons on the dishwasher. It has something to do with resetting the breaker, too. We don't know what part is going out. Can you identify the problem? And if so, is it a part we can replace ourselves?
Answer Mark, Remove the lower kickplate and access the control board underneath along with the tech sheet. The control board will have a light that would flash and the sequence will tell you the error code. Look at the tech sheet to find out what the flashing represents. If it comes back normal then the issue will be the User interface board. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, March 3, 2022
