Keller M Franklin , TN October 20, 2014 Appliance: Maytag Undercounter Dishwasher MDBH980AWS1 Maytag Dishwasher Mdbh980aws1: Lights on front panel one by one stopped working till all lights went out and no button functioned. How to replace Control Panel. I tried cleaning the ribbon cable connecting the front panel to the control board and that didn't help. I agonized over whether the power supply was bad or the control board or the front panel control... ended up making educated guess after looking at other question/answers on the appliancepartspros site. Thankfully it was a good guess to replace front control panel. Works like new now. Very easy to replace.
