Dan February 24, 2016 for Model Number Kenmore 665 13163k703 A couple weeks ago the pump hose came off and flooded the kitchen. I replaced the hose clamp, but when I was reinstalling the water line I cross threaded the inlet valve. I couldn't get it to quit leaking, so I replaced the valve. When I tried to use it I got a code 16. I reset it and it worked for a week. Now I am getting a code 22 and none of the buttons will work. Is this really bad luck or am I missing something? Is it the control panel or board? Thank you for your help.
1 Answer Dan, This issue with the 22 error code will be a faulty user interface board. The part number that you would need is the control WP8557669. Read More...

Doug January 24, 2015 for Model Number 66513122K702 My dishwasher recently stopped running. I noticed water didn't seen to be coming in. I replaced the water inlet valve and everything seemed to work fine for 4 or 5 days, and then it stopped washing. Water still comes in when a cycle is started, but then the dishwasher will sit there and make clicking sounds, and nothing else seems to happen. It doesn't start washing the dishes. If you hit cancel, it will drain out the water.
1 Answer Doug, You will want to check to see if the control board is sending power to the motor. If there is no power going to the motor then check the float switch to make sure that it is lifting when the tub is done filling. If this checks ok then the control board would need to be replaced.

Robert December 13, 2014 for Model Number 66513153k701 Last year "normal wash" stopped halfway through giving 8-1 error (fill problem) Used instead "one hour wash" and no problem until now with blinking 1-8 code again (always at 20 minutes). I replaced fill-valve...no change. I ran a diagnostic wash-with-error-indication using a stopwatch. Several sequences yielded a steady green. At ten minutes, there was a brief drain and water was all out in a few seconds. Next, for three minutes was silence but the red run light was still on. At exactly thirteen minutes, red light went out, cancel light on, 3 minutes of dry drain motor running then 8-1 blink. It seems like the silent three minutes was a timeout from some action that didn't happen. I assume the fill function. I am considering control board possibly faulty. Is that surely it? Also, I have an old w10193578a board. The ribbon cable feels non-removable to finger-pull at control side. Is that true?
1 Answer Robert, You will want to first check the overfill switch to makes sure that it is not stuck, there could be something stuck under the float that could cause this issue. Also make sure that the drain loop has not come detached from the tub or an improper drain connection. Also check for leaks under the unit. If all this checks ok then the issue would be with the control board. Read More...
Richard B September 25, 2014 for Model Number 665.13129K703 I have a Kenmore Elite 13129K. Similar to another poster, my Start button will frequently not work when pressed. All the other keys on the pad seem to work. When I run service diagnostics, I get no error codes, and all the LEDS work when the diagnostic is started. Using my unit's diagnostic sheet, I follow the instructions for checking the Keypad Operation. This sequence: disconnect power-disconnect ribbon cable from control-reconnect power-close door results in a Drain cycle starting - which means CONTROL BOARD IS OK, KEYPAD IS BAD. I then disconnect the ribbon again, and use a diode tester and check all Key Switches for continuity / turn on/off. They all pass the test which means CONTROL BOARD IS BAD, KEYPAD IS GOOD. This is quite the conundrum. I then reconnect everything and the Start button works...for a week or two. I have been doing this for about 6 months hoping something will break. Is there some reservoir of knowledge that would give me a better than 50/50 chance at replacing the Keypad or the Control?? My engineer's brain will not allow me to buy both parts. Thanks for any insight.
1 Answer Hello Richard. Anytime you have an issue with a button not working, but all others work, it is not the board that is bad, it is the control panel that is bad and needs to be replaced. Read More...
Marianne August 23, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore Dishwasher 665-13889K800 Dishwasher won't start. Wash light, heat light come on but not the start light. Try pushing start light and nothing happens.
1 Answer Hello Marianne. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the control panel WPW10158339 is bad and will need to be replaced in the unit. Read More...
Tom L July 17, 2014 for Model Number 665.13123k703 Dishwasher parcel filled with water by its self after a power outage. Ran the drain cancel to empty it. The dishwasher responds to the drain cancel button. No panel indication or response to any of the other controls. Checked the thermal fuse and high temp snap switch both ok.
1 Answer Hello Tom. This could be 2 parts here. It sounds like the control board and the control panel may need to be replaced on the unit. You can try replacing the board and cleaning the ribbon cable of the panel, but if the issue continues, you will need to replace the panel on the unit. Read More...
Steve July 07, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore Pro Undercounter Dishwasher model #66513173K701 Two problems appeared at the same time. During idle period, with door completely closed, the dispenser latch solenoid start clicking by itself 3 times, then pause, then 3 times, again and again. I told my wife to keep the door unlatched until I look at it. Then I close the soap dispenser and started a quick cycle to investigate. I was surprised to hear nothing about the soap dispenser door, like if it was still working properly. I decided to open the dishwaher door to see if the dispenser was indeed still closed. I reçieved a full jet of water : the dishwasher no longer stops when I open the door. Ctrl board? What about the fire issue some people are talking about?
1 Answer Hello Steve, The unit not stopping will be caused by a sticking door switch WPW10134019. The solenoid clicking is a power supply issue from the control board WPW10285178. Read More...
Jeff M April 13, 2014 for Model Number Jdb3600awp4 My jenn-air dishwasher won't run a cycle. Symptoms are that the top shelf button flashes and other buttons do nothing. I cut power and some times the normal wash button flashes. When I restore power and close door it runs what seems like a cancel cycle but it stops and returns to previous state. Control board I suspect?
1 Answer Hello Jeff. It sounds like the control panel is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. It does not sounds like the control board on the unit. Read More...
Grams February 03, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore Elite 665.13122K The dishwasher started wash cycle and ran for a few cycles, then the clean light came on. It blinks 6 times, off, 1 blink, off, and repeats cycles. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Grams, This is the fault code for the heating circuit. You need to first make sure the unit is secured to the cabinet and all four feet are on the floor. This affects the door strike and can prevent the door switches which are passing the voltage to the heating circuit. If this is good, check the heating element WPW10082892, the high limit thermostat WP661566, the door switches WPW10404412 and the control WPW10285178. Read More...
