Bryan for Model Number KUDS01DSS0

Two questions. My dishwasher has started to occasionally started to leak thru the overfill float/switch. Jiggling it from underneath temporarily stops it. I'm cleaning it, is it that or a failing switch ? I've confirmed the switch with dmm but the one tab on it is discolored as if internal contact got hot. Second question, a couple years ago I ordered a new control board from you and had to get a new heater element too as a kit. Problem is about a year later and has been operating like this for 2 years ....the unit will run thru cycles but only regular cycle. No cycle lights light when you try to select a different cycle but will run thru wash cycle when you press start. I've unplugged it for awhile to reset but no luck. How do you enter diagnostic mode ? Thanks for you help.

Answer

Bryan, Here's the diagnostic cycle programming information : DIAGNOSTICS CYCLE SERVICE FEATURE – Press the above option keys in the sequence shown, while the dishwasher is inactive, to run the Diagnostics Cycle. This cycle may be rapid advanced, interval by interval, by pressing the Pots&Pans/Heavy key, Antibacteria/Cookware key, or Start key. HIGH TEMP(Power Scour)> AIR DRY(No Heat Dry)(Energy Saver Dry)> HIGH TEMP(Power Scour)>AIR DRY(No Heat Dry)(Energy Saver Dry). Allow the dishwasher to advance through the complete cycle to off, in order to reset the control. The small leak from the float assembly could be due to a "stcky" float due to a build up on the float guide ans is not likely due to the discolored terminals.Once you've reset the control, if you still have an issue with the cycle selector keypads, you'll need to consider a new control panel/keypad assembly. Good Luck and Thanks
