Steve February 15, 2012 for Model Number GU980SCGT3 during cycle dishwasher stopped and lights were blinking. i figured push cancel/drain to reset. machine started to drain then shut off and now cancel/drain light blinking. bad door switch? also, how old is this unit?
1 Answer Steve, You're just a little off target, a faulty door switch would distrupt power to the control and you'd have no lights and the unit would do nothing at all. You most likely have a fault in the control panel/key pad assembly 8051721 " If the control detects that a key is stuck in the depressed position, dishwasher operation will be suspended and the control will flash the light for that key until the condition is corrected. If a key without a light is stuck or multiple keys are stuck, the control will flash" You will also need to reset the control "HI TEMP WASH, AIR DRY, HI TEMP WASH, AIR DRY or POWER SCOUR, AIR DRY, POWER SCOUR, AIR DRY If the sequence is entered after starting a cycle, the Rapid Advance feature is turned on, which allows the operator to manually advance the currently running cycle, interval by interval, by pressing the Pots & Pans/Antibacteria or Heavy/Soak & Scrub key." and allow the diagnostic cycle to run the complete test mode.

There are 2 wires that go to the control board and 2 wires go under the unit - black goes to the power supply and the white with a purple line goes under the unit near the motor.

Jack E. July 26, 2011 for Model Number Du8950XY-1 My dishwasher quit on the rinse cycle and it will not start again.
1 Answer Hello, you will want to look at both door switches 4318273. You will need a Multi Meter: TJMA-DMT3 to test the switch, it should read closed when you press it in and open when you release it. If both switches are reading good you might have a defective timer. Unfortunately the timer is no longer available, sorry. Read More...
Jack July 11, 2011 for Model Number GU940SCGZ2 There is a flat bracket and comes from console at top center and fits over door when closed. This bracket drops down when door is open and blocks door from closing unless you hold it up with a knive or screw driver. When you hold it up and allow the door to close, the washer works fine. Is this bracket part of the door switch?
1 Answer Hello Jack. No, based on the information you provided, it sounds like you are talking about the door strike WP3378149. The door switch kit 4318273 is the micro-switches on the inside of the door latch assembly. Hope this helps. Read More...
