For Whirlpool Control Panel (Part Number: OEM18052482)

Dj for Model Number Maytag MDBH980AWB dishwasher

when cycle select button is pushed, the lights come on and cycle thru heavy, normal and light. So it is getting power. However, when you depress the Start/Cancel button, the dishwasher will not turn on. Is that most likely a circuit board problem, a control panel problem, or something else. Dishwasher is 4.5 years old. Have had no problems up til a day or so ago. Didnt come on immediately but fooled around and finally got it turned on. Now even that will not work

DJ, You're on track, the most likely issue is a faulty Start/Cancel keypad circuit WPW10235718 on the control panel. You can test the keypad circuits, using a multi meter and the tech data information sheet attached to the back of the lower kick plate panel on the front of the dishwasher.

Hello Jennie,

As per the tech sheet, if a button is stuck, the corresponding light will flash and the unit will not respond to commands. In light of this, I would say the control panel WPW10235721 on your unit is the issue.

Hello Jason. The first thing you will need to test is the door latch assembly WPW10275768. If the door latch switch is bad, it will cause the issue you are having with the unit. If the door latch is working properly, then the control panel WPW10235718 could be the issue with the unit. Hope this helps.
