John S. November 15, 2011 for Model Number Kenmore 66516469300 Our control panel will start the wash cycle and it seems to go through a complet cycle. All the soap cube desolves and the dishes seem clean and dry. However when it stops running the clean light does not come on. The Smart wash light blinks continously and does not go out? I suspect the control board is the problem. However could it be a sensor?
1 Answer Hi John. You will need to replace the control panel. Touchpad and control panel assembly, white Part # WP8542351. Touchpad and control panel assembly, black part # WP8542350. Thank You. Read More...
David C. October 16, 2011 for Model Number KUDI01ILWH5 ( Kitchenaid ) Replaced control board (8564542). Have been unable to get it working. I tried turning off breaker for various periods of time. Nothing. Tried this interesting maneuver. pushed "high temp scrub" & "energy saver dry twice in sequence with door closed. ALL lights lit for about five seconds. Then normal light came on then rinse only, then norm then rinse then norm then rinse only starts and runs for a couple of minutes then after a brief pump out switches back to normal then back to rinse and shuts off.
1 Answer Hello David. If the control panel is responding to all the buttons except the start button, it sounds like the panel WP8531817 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...

Mike October 02, 2011 for Model Number KUDI01ILBL3 Hi, my unit was showing a blinking heavy load light. Any other cycle button pressed would start blinking. Start and cancle would not work. I replaced the contorl board pn 8534963 with the new version pn 8564542. Seemed good at first since cycle button presses would respond, but I did not run it yet. 24hrs later the heavy load light was blinking again and I'm at the same point. Please help. Mike
1 Answer Hi Mike. Your heavy wash indicates that your water valve is failed in operation. Part # is WP8531669. Thank You. Read More...
Arlyn September 30, 2011 for Model Number KUDIO1ILBL6 After replacing control board and unit still not starting, I did a complete resistance check as per schematic and found nothing. I then reconnected everything and the unit started to work, it was in normal wash, energy save dry. About half way through the wash cycle the 2 lites would flicker accompanied by a clunk noise, then they would both go off and the normal button would start flashing. It would do this and then start working again. It did this several times so I shut it down and wrote you.......thanks again for any help you can give me
1 Answer Hello Arlyn. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the control panel W10757829 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Arlyn F. September 26, 2011 for Model Number KUDI01ILB6 Had 3 lights, cancel button would start pump, wouldn't run. Ordered board as advised, had 1 lite and nothing worked. Asked question on line, was sent wiring diagram with instructions to test switches in panel. Tested switches with DVOM using both the ohm reader, and diode scale of the meter and all tested OK. Was sent another board, installed Sat. and it ran fine. Mon only one lite would lite and unit would not run. Removed panel again and tested with ohm meter again, all buttons checked OK, then tested again using diode test of the meter and 2 buttons give a forward reading of 3.1 volts. Could a bad control board cause the diodes to short or is this really a short or just a forward bias inherent to these components. Please help.Thanks Arlyn.
1 Answer Hi Arlyn. What exact light is coming on? The soil sensor will emit a code when it has failed. The sensor is part # WP8269208. Check the heating element to see if it is open. Should read 28-32 ohms. Make sure it is not shorted. Make sure the ribbon cable is plugged in securely. You need to use dishwasher monthly to keep all operating correctly. Part # is TJ104. Thank you Read More...
Arlyn F. September 20, 2011 for Model Number KUDI01ILBL6 Three of the green lites would lite, and the cancel would start the pump, but unit would not run. Replaced board ap3775964, now the only lite that lites is the heavy was cycle and nothing works.

Mike Smead September 10, 2011 for Model Number 66515959000 just installed the elec. control assy. ran one cycle, and now it will now start. green clean light is flashing, and my attempt to restart by shutting power off and to re boot the control assy. has no effect, is this a reman part, it seems the board is defective.
1 Answer Mike, Your "clean" light flashing, is an indication of the water heating option , not reaching the preset temperature. There are several causes, Water temperature in the tub too low, the heater element and or thermostat are malfuntioning. You will need to remove the kickplate in order to find the technical data sheet and test the heater and thermostat circuits to verify. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Tom September 10, 2011 for Model Number KUDS01FKSS0 Just replaced door balance kit and washer stopped working. replaced interface module since some cycle lights were intermittent. Unit will now not start any cycle. Is it the control board? Seems like the only thing left thanks
1 Answer Tom, Are you sure the thermal fuse 8193762 is OK, as well as the door switch circuits ? Also check and make sure the ribbon cable is not damaged, twisted or creased WP8524447 and that it is properly and tightly installed at both controls, before you replace the control board. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Mike S. September 07, 2011 for Model Number 66515959000 I purchased elect. control assy, (control panel) and temp sensor, can you tell me where the two item are located?
1 Answer Hello Mike. The electronic control board WP8564543 is located inside the door of the dishwasher. The temperature sensor is located under the bottom of the dishwasher. You will remove the toe panel to access and replace the temperature sensor. Hope this helps. Read More...
