Jillian for Model Number KUDD01DPPA1

I have 2 Kitchen-Aid dishwasher drawers. Problem is the same with both of them. After selecting cycle dishwasher fills with water and begins cycle only to stop mid-cycle - and regardless of cycle chosen appears to be stuck, blinking "Heavy/Rinse" litghts and they stop working. I have replaced the rotors in both, dried out the overflow pan underneath but the problem persists. So far it has cost me around $700 and no solution. Latest repair service thought there might be a slight puncture in the top drawer pan and suggested it should be replaced! More cost which as this stage would not be worth it. The control board appears to be sealed in the plastic tub - could this be the problem and if so how does one replace it? Does it mean completely disassembling the dishwashers? Any and all ideas/solutions would be welcomed. Thanks!

Answer

Hi. Code: Fill failure. Water supply valve turned off. Make sure the valve is cycled on and off a few times to remove any clogs or sediments. Inlet valve part # WP8194068 failed. Check resistance of the solenoid coils, 65-75 ohms per coil. Replace if open or more then 10% out of tolerance. Low water pressure. Incoming water pressure must be above 4.3psi. If the water inlet valve is good then make sure the inlet screen is not clogged. Spray arm not in place. Replace the wash arm in its proper location. Obstructed inlet supply water hose or kinked. Bad wiring to the junction box or the controller. Machine is siphoning. Check drain hose installation so there are no vapor locks creating siphoning. This is the tech sheet for the model. Control board part # WP8564543. Thank You.
