Ben July 18, 2023 for Model Number PDW9280L00SS Dishwasher fills washes and drains all in like 5 min. Would the control board be the issue?
1 Answer Ben, Locate the tech sheet packaged with the machine, place the machine into "Service Mode" checking for error codes and for component testing. Read More...
Mark S March 02, 2022 for Model Number PDT825SSJ0SS Dishwasher having trouble starting up when start button is pushed. Starts beeping -and blinking - no pauses. We have been able to get it started by shutting it down with the 2 end buttons for 3 seconds, then going to our breaker boxes and turning off the breaker and leaving it for about a minute before turning it back on. Sometimes we go through this routine several times before it finally will start. Once it does start, it runs fine without problems. We have never been able to get it to start up by only using the buttons on the dishwasher. It has something to do with resetting the breaker, too. We don't know what part is going out. Can you identify the problem? And if so, is it a part we can replace ourselves?
1 Answer Mark, Remove the lower kickplate and access the control board underneath along with the tech sheet. The control board will have a light that would flash and the sequence will tell you the error code. Look at the tech sheet to find out what the flashing represents. If it comes back normal then the issue will be the User interface board. Read More...
Eugene October 06, 2020 for Model Number PDW9280N00SS After the washing cycle is over the lights on my GE Profile dishwasher are running sequentially within the "Selection" part and making beeping sounds as soon as I press the Start/ Reset button after the cycle is over. The only option for me to stop the running lights and beeping sound is by keeping the Start/ Reset button in the "ON" position. What part do I need to replace in order to fix the issue? Thank you in advance, Eugene
Gen April 08, 2019 My GE profile dishwasher (stainless steel tub and exterior) will not fill to the proper level. Which part do I need to change? Thanks Gen
1 Answer Gen, more than likely you would possibly have a partially clogged water valve or the valve solenoid may not be opening properly. One thing that can be checked is the operation time of the valve itself. If the valve operates for the appropriate amount of time and does not allow the proper amount of water through, then the valve would need to be changed out. Read More...
Keith December 12, 2018 for Model Number PDW9280N00SS Touch pad stuck on rinse reset dishwasher by unplug it for an hour. The dishwasher began to work properly for a short period and touch pad is not responding correctly and dishwasher is beeping the cycle complete sound. is there a way to trouble shoot if it is the board or touch pad?
1 Answer Keith, For this issue the touchpad would be the most likely cause if it would not switch from one setting to another. The part number that would be needed would be WD34X11210. Read More...
Dale July 30, 2018 for Model Number PDW9980N00SS Dishwasher operates correctly through all cycles, except leaves water from final rinse. It fills and pumps out just fine during prewash and wash except at the very end... Telling me nothing is plugged, pump and impeller are functioning. It does empty completely if I run rinse only cycle, control module/timer not telling it to empty except on rinse only? That's my theory...
1 Answer Dale, For this issue with only the final drain not running then this would be a faulty main control board on the unit. Read More...
Dorothynocerino July 23, 2017 for Model Number PDW9700N0011 We noticed a burning smell coming out of the dishwasher. We took the panel off the front and it looks like the control unit needs replacing. There was also what looks like a flat plastic type of strip that when I look at the diagram of the parts, it is the piece that goes from the right side of the control panel to the inside of the unit that seems to have burned. Is this a major repair? Should I be considering replacing the unit It is approx 9 years old now.
1 Answer Dorothy, Sounds like you're referring to the keypad assembly WD34X11158 / WD34X11158 key pad assembly. It is adhered to the top of the door and the "ribbon" connector is inserted through a slot in the panel, and is routed through the door and attaches to the control module WD21X10370 / WD21X10370 module control assembly. If the electrical shock/short was big enough, it could have damaged/burnt the keypad. You may want to replace both parts, based on your description. Whether you repair or replace the machine is up to you, but a repair is less than a replacement, and you may get a few more years of service out of the machine. Read More...
Steve February 19, 2017 for Model Number GE PWD9280L00SS From a complete reset (leave power off for 30 minutes), dishwasher drains, fills, runs for about 7 minutes, drains, and then stops (soap dispenser has yet to open). LEDs are in same state as when powered on (only LEDs lit are Normal wash and Heated Dry).
1 Answer Steve, Will want to make sure that the incoming water supply is a minimum of 120 degrees. If not then the unit may be stalling to heat the water to the proper temp. If this is not the case then the issue would most likely be with the main board. Read More...
Ray December 28, 2016 for Model Number PDW9280N20SS So my wife mixed detergents and plugged the dispenser tank again. for the second time.in our GE dishwasher. I took the tank out and cleaned it thoroughly as I had in the past then tried to manually purge the water and the touchpad stopped responding. After turning power on and off several times to try and reset. I got a new touchpad. Before sticking it to the front door I plugged it in and tried it. The dishwasher ran through a cycle as it should.. Thinking I had solved the mystery even though the two issues shouldnt have been related I carefully put the pad on the door, closed the door, then turned the breaker back on.Now It is doing the same thing it did at the start no response from the touchpad no matter which buttons pressed. two lights are on, heat and one of the lights that show which mode of cleaning is lit. Makes no sense to me.Your thoughts?.
1 Answer Ray, You will want to check the ribbon harness connection at the control board to make sure that the harness is fully seated. This issue could be a bad connector on the control board in which once the liner is put on it is causing a short in that connector. Read More...
Azamul December 28, 2016 for Model Number Ge Profile PDW7712 The rinse button and cookware button do not light up. Nothing happens when they are pressed. Other cycles seem to work. I suspect the control board or front panel capacitive switch membrane.
1 Answer Azamul, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty touchpad on the unit with just 2 keys not working. Read More...
