Sue August 11, 2024 for Model Number GU2400XTPS6 My dishwasher will not start the cleaning cycle and no lights show on the panel unless I push the cancel button. The cancel button makes the water drain out, What might be the cause of this?
1 Answer Hello Sue, thank you for contacting APP, That is likely to be an issue of the Control Panel Assembly WP3385741 or the Main Control WP8564547 if the Control Panel is totally unresponsive other than the drain out. Read More...
Michele September 22, 2021 for Model Number KUDi01ilb6 Ran dishwasher with no issue two nights ago. Last night, nothing happens when I push buttons on control panel - no lights, nothing. I've checked circuit breaker, it's fine. Control board fuse of control panel issue?
1 Answer Michele, it would be recommended that the dishwasher junction box is accessed to test for 120VAC at the wires. If there is voltage, the power supply would need to be turned off, and the fuse 8193762 tested for continuity. If there is not continuity, the fuse would need to be replaced. If there is continuity, the failure would likely be in the main control WP8564543 (part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available). Read More...
James March 08, 2020 for Model Number GU1500XTLS3 I have replace the thermal fuse 2 times already with genuine parts and both time the fuse blew immediately after I pressed the Normal Cycle. The first fuse blew after about 7 washed. The second on after 2 cycles. Please let me know what to do. James
1 Answer Hello James, the fuse in this kit is a thermal fuse , meaning it only trips under excessive heat around it. Check the control board and the attached main wire harness for any signs of overheating, melted wire insulation signs, etc, the heating element in the tub will not cause this to trip, it is a safety device for the control panel area. Next, if the fuse trips the entire kit need to be replaced not just the fuse itself, a poor wire or terminal connection at the fuse will cause the fuse terminals to overheat and cause a false trip.

Phllip Whitson November 19, 2019 the light over the "hold" button will not go out. i cannot reset the machine. I've unpluged it. i've taken off the front panel and looked at the buttons, etc. Any suggestions
1 Answer Phillip, If it were the fuse, there would be no lights or power to the control panel/control board. A constant LED illuminated on the control panel, usually indicates a faulty keypad circuit on this brand dishwasher, but we can't be positively sure or recommend any checks or repairs without a model number of the product. Please repost your question and include the model number so we can assist you properly and efficiently. Thanks, Read More...
Miguel April 17, 2019 for Model Number DUL240XTPB6 Hi, I was on a trip and I did not use the dishwasher for 5 months, now it does not turn on, or turn on any panel light, just the CANCEL / DRAIN light and it sounds like it's draining the water. Electric input wiring was checked as well as water input and everything is normal. The water inlet valve, disconnect it and work properly. The fuse is fine. There is some code or way to reset the machine.
1 Answer Miguel, Test for 120 vac going into the control board and if there is power but nothing is working then the issue will be a faulty main control board. Read More...
Tim August 22, 2018 for Model Number GU1500XTKS0 My dishwasher blows this fuse ( AP3178588 (8193762) periodically. sometime after 20 cycles, sometimes 1. What are the most common culprits? In my initial question, I failed to give you the model of my DW. You recommended replacing the thermostat (WP661566). It appears it doesn't have one,.... not where your DIY video (under the part description) shows anyways. I have not pulled the DW out yet. Thanks for your time. Tim
1 Answer Tim, the thermostat is under the tub towards the front, it has a white with red stripe on one side and orange colored wire on the other side. You actually may need to pull the dishwasher out to access it more easily if you can't find it by looking behind the toe panel. Read More...
Tim August 19, 2018 So, my dishwasher blows this fuse ( AP3178588 (8193762) periodically. sometime after 20 cycles, sometimes 1. It is probably protecting something that is not functioning properly (heating element?) or is grounding periodically. In your experience, what are the most common culprits, and, is there a fuse with a slightly higher amp threshold I could install? If it ends up frying anything, I don't care, I'm at the point of replacing the dishwasher anyways. Thanks Tim
1 Answer Tim, this is an indication that the temperature in the tub is too hot, this can sometimes be caused by a failing tub thermostat, part number is [WP661566] Read More...
Nick January 16, 2018 My dishwasher stopped working, I did some research and found out that the thermal fuse is most likely the cause. But when I took it apart I noticed there was no fuse and someone had tied the wires together, now would it be worth it to get a new fuse and replace it or could something else be wrong? The only reason I'm asking is because there is no fuse and I'm wondering if maybe something else burnt up or something like that.
1 Answer Hello Nick. You will need to replace the fuse. It is a safety device the manufacturer intends to be on there. But if all lights are out, then either the board or the power supply may be bad coming to the unit. 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...
Kickstand October 28, 2017 for Model Number KUDP01ILBS6 clean light blinking but will not go off and can get nothing else to work is this the control board
1 Answer Kickstand, The clean light blinking means that there is an issue with the heat circuit of the unit and you will want to check the heater to make sure that it has continuity and check the thermostat for continuity. If either does not have continuity then the part will need to be replaced. If they check ok then check the wiring between them and the main control board. If the wiring is good then the control board will be the issue. Read More...
Robert August 22, 2017 for Model Number 665.16989200 Tan wire on 4 block wire location in the control panel has burned terminal loose. I replaced control panel and checked continuity thermal fuse. Ran dw normal and could smell the control bd burning. I removed control panel and observed slight burning on same tan wire terminal where it meets the bd. Guessing too much power tan wire. What do I look for ? I don't want to burn up control bd.
1 Answer Robert, If the wire is getting hot enough to burn then this would be caused by either a loose connection or a bad wire and may need to replace that wire. Read More...
