Jeff for Model Number 66513672K600

When I try to start my dishwasher the normal wash light and the cancel drain light begins to blink. I shut off the power to the dishwasher and they of course went off. When turned back on they remained off until I hit a button to start the washer and the normal wash began to blink again. I read on one of the forums that it was the door latch...that the door is either not closed enough or it is sensing that it is open. It actually doesn't feel like it is closing with the same certain click that it used to. Not sure which of these door parts to purchase and is it difficult to replace? Thanks

Answer

Jeff, You most likely have an issue in the control panel/keypad assembly WP8558196 but you do want to check the door switch circuits with a multimeter and insure they are a "closed" circuit when the switches are activated. Here are the basic "diagnosis" programming "HIGH TEMP SCRUB, AIR DRY, HIGH TEMP SCRUB, AIR DRY " program the cycle and let the dishwasher run until it shuts off, this will reset the control board, and it should run one "reprogramming" cycle. To access the door switch assembly, you will need to remove power to the unit, Remove the six (6) screws securing the control panel to the door frame. The control panel will now drop down and be free of the door assembly. The wiring harness will remain connected to the console components. Here's some meter usage information should you need it [http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html] , Good Luck and Thanks
