Bryan for Model Number 665.13893k801 The dishwasher has started malfunctioning. Noticed when the Control panel went dead and water remained in the tub. Tested the thermal fuse, needed replacing. This seemed to fix the dead control panel. The dishwasher started but stopped mid-cycle during normal wash, heated dry, and sanitize mode, water remained in the tub. The start/ resume light would flash. I can restart the sequence but get the same result. Cancel drains tub as expected. Replaced the high temp limit switch/fuse on the bottom of the tub, and the same result. I tested the heating element, seems to be in the normal range. The door lock seems to be working correctly, but have not tested resistance. Did a diagnostic test, Seemed to work very close to what the schematic said it should do…. The diagnostic test shows turbidity sensor should be replaced. The control panel was replaced 1.5 hrs ago and has worked fine until now. Quick and light wash cycles seem to work fine. Normal and pots pans cycles malfunction, yet it seems to run normally for the first 45 min or an hour, then malfunction occurs and the control panel goes dead. Doesn’t seem to be blowing the thermal fuse though, If I remove power for 5 min, the control board flashes start/resume with normal wash light. At this point, I press cancel to drain the water. Motors and pumps seem to be working. When the dishwasher stops, I open the door and a significant amount of steam comes out. Water in the bottom of the tub is approx 135-140 degrees. Not noticing any steam coming out the door vent at any time…. Read somewhere if the vent fan doesn’t work, it will shut down mid-cycle or during the drying cycle and shut down the control panel. Could this be my problem causing an overheat situation? Suggestions???
Answer It is possible if the fan is not working to cause overheating. Did you replace the turbidity sensor? That is what failed diagnostics and would be the first part I would replace at this point. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Saturday, September 10, 2022
