John for Model Number KitchenAid KUDS02FRSS1 My dishwasher stopped with water left in the bottom. I can press the Normal, then the Start, then shut the door. After a few seconds I can see the Start blinking, and hear a faint clicking sound. I open the door, press the blinking Start - it goes solid on, then close the door. Again, after a few seconds it begins blinking. The door switch tests OK and the fuse tests OK. All the buttons/LEDs seem to respond OK. Laying out the panel I pressed Normal, then Start (with the door switch wedged closed with a small piece of wood). After a few seconds the Start light began blinking in harmony with the clicking sound. I traced the "clicking" to a solenoid (?) on the corner of the control board. So... does this indicate a bad control board?
Answer Hello John. Yes, based on the information you provided, it sounds like the control board WPW10084141 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, February 9, 2012
