Cj June 26, 2018 for Model Number PDW7880G00SS Hi, I am not getting 120v at the over flow switch relay testing on the cable assembly to the switch during the fill cycle, could this be a bad electronic control board? Also no 120v at the flow solenoid as well. So Of course I am not getting any water fill as I suspect this interlock is open since no power is there. Thx.
1 Answer CJ, Yes, the issue could be the dishwasher main control board WD21X10174 / WD21X10174( it's not available from the manufacturer). You'll want to check the pink wire between the control board and float switch. and the white/red wire between the valve solenoid , door switch, and detergent cup and up to the control board. That way you eliminate the possibility of a broken wire, before you hunt for a control board. Read More...
Bud July 12, 2015 for Model Number PDW7800J03CC I reset the power and dishwasher works correctly. When the cycle is done the LCD numbers go out along with the entire panel. Works again if I reset power again and only that way.
1 Answer Hello Bud. You will need to look for loose connections on the unit. If none is found, then you will need to order and replace the control module WD21X10215 on the unit. Read More...
Jim May 26, 2015 for Model Number GSD6200G00BB The detergent dispenser cover will not stay closed when starting a load of dishes. Also, before this problem first developed, the dispenser cover latch would not return to its initial position after completing a wash-cycle. If I moved the dispenser cover latch with my finger so that the cover would remain closed, then the detergent would be released at the correct time. Is this a Module Control Assembly problem, or a problem with the Detergent Dispenser Assembly?
1 Answer Jim, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty detergent dispenser especially with the door not latching. The part number for the dispenser assembly is WD12X10163. Read More...
Erwin February 17, 2015 for Model Number GSD6200G00CC I replace the door handle activator and all the dishwasher does is just lights up and doesnt fill with water and does nothing but sit there how do you check the control panel.
1 Answer Erwin, The best way to check the unit by putting it into a service diagnostics based on the tech sheet that is under the kickplate. Run the diagnostic mode and make sure that everything works. This would most likely be a control board that is faulty rather than a issue with the control panel since it is lighting up. Read More...
Chris January 20, 2015 for Model Number PDW7800G00WW Hi, my dishwasher is not filling with water, test that I have completed was First I found that the float switch was not working, I took it apart and found the switch was burned up, I tested the out put of the pink and yellow wire connected to it I have 124V AC I replaced the switch, POOF that switch is burned up to, next in line is the water inlet valve I removed it, I tested across the coil I have 1120 Ohm, from other sites I believe that to be ok. So for a test I left that part disconnected and left my meter connected to water valve connector with hope of seeing 124V AC but as soon as I turned it on the 3rd float switch burned up. I now look to a pro for some thot's on this.
1 Answer Hello Chris. You will need to trace the pink wire back to the board and look for breaks touching the frame of the unit.. Also, check the yellow wire for the same grounding issue. If both are good, replace the water valve on the unit. Read More...
Bill October 06, 2014 for Model Number PDW7800G00CC My GE Profile dishwasher trips the circuit breaker every time I push the "Start" button. All the wires appear to be OK (nothing frayed or bare). Could a faulty Control Module be the cause of the problem? You folks sell the part for $139 and I can certainly install it myself. I just need to know if that is a reasonable source of the circuit tripping problem. Thanks.
1 Answer Bill, While the issue could be with the control module, you will also want to check the drain pump and the connections at the heater to make sure that there they are good. If they check ok then the control module would be the issue. Read More...
Tony July 04, 2014 for Model Number GSD6700G00WW The dishwasher will not turn on. I tried unlocking the keypad, but no luck. The door appears to close securely as there is an audible click. I disconnected the power, waited a minute, then turned it back on. The unit beeped once. If I open then close the door, the unit beeps once and the heated dry light flashes briefly. Please help, I cannot afford to buy a new dishwasher. Thanks
1 Answer Tony, Based on the information it sounds like the issue would be in the module control assembly WD21X10174. Read More...
David M June 30, 2014 for Model Number PDW7880G00SS My dishwashewr will not fill. I have replaced the water valve and float switch. The dishwasher does have water coming to it. The keyboard appears to be working as it should. Any ideas as to what I need to try next?
1 Answer Hello David. If there is no power to the valve, you either have a wiring issue or a control board WD21X10174 issue. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Steve April 17, 2014 for Model Number PDW7880g00ss I have a dead short on this model. I removed connections to every piece of this dishwasher one at a time and the only time the breaker does not trip is when I remove the main connection to the control module. Can I assume the control module is shorted? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Steve, This sounds like a very good theory. If nothing else was connected, the control WD21X10174 would have to be internally shorted. Read More...
Wayne February 05, 2014 for Model Number EDW4000G00BB When the water valve is told to open it trips the 20A supply breaker immediately. I have traced it down to the connector for the water valve. There are 2 yellow wires and 2 White/Red wires on this connector. About 6" from the connector one of the yellow wires goes into a small round bump. On the other side of this bump the wire is White/Red. It then joins one of the other White/Reds coming out of this same connector (2 White/Reds in and 1 White/Red out). It appears that this "bump" is shorted out, because when I use an ohm meter on this connector, it is showing a direct short. Can you tell me what this device is, and can I buy another one? Thank you
1 Answer Hello Wayne, This is simply a connection point for the harness to facilitate the manufacturing process. The connection point can be cut out of the harness if there is enough slack and the wires connected directly to the corresponding wires with either wire nuts or crimp connectors. This should correct the short and restore normal operation if no other problems exist. Read More...
