Jean for Model Number GU3200XTPS5

The 'normal' light blinks constantly on my whirpool gold . No break in the blinking pattern. Dishwasher does not work and unplugging it hasn't helped. Help is GREATLY Hello Melissa. Here are the instructions from the manufacture. Hope this helps. A rapidly blinking LED over one of the keys of the keypad (or sometimes a “dead” keypad/console) indicates one or more key switch lines are stuck or shorted on either the control or the keypad. To determine which one, do the following test: 1. Unplug dishwasher or disconnect power. 2. Open console and disconnect the keypad ribbon connection from the control (at P1). Put console back together. 3. Plug in dishwasher or reconnect power. 4. With door latched, disconnect and reconnect thermistor or OWI sensor two times in less than 6 seconds. 5. Wait 10 seconds, then monitor the control’s response to the thermistor: ?If the control is OK (no longer sees shorts with the keypad unplugged), it will respond by running service diagnostics. Listen for it to begin filling after it concludes the 5–10 second display test at the beginning of the service diagnostics cycle. Check and/or replace the keypad if the control responds OK. ?If the control is not OK (still sees shorts with the keypad unplugged), then it will NOT respond to the thermistor at all and will remain off after 10 seconds go by. Make sure the keypad is unplugged for this test. Confirm that all other connections are made, the console and door are reassembled, power is back on, and the door is latched; then repeat steps 1-5 above. If still no response, replace the control. I did this diagnostics and I've got code d3 the 05 the 16 with normal light and heated dry then the dishwasher start doing the 16 minute cycle but I have the fuse blow up after wile and the wire heated the when the dishwasher stoped it give me on the dash like time delay with 1H 2H 3H till 9H then it stoped again with the normal light blinking any help sombody told me to replace the termistor.any help

Answer

Hello Jean. Make sure the door switches are good on the unit. If so, you will need to replace the control panel WP3385741 on the unit. You can try removing the ribbon cable and cleaning it, but if the problem continues, you will need to replace the control panel. Hope this helps.
