Leas June 14, 2014 for Model Number Du1345xtvb1 My dishwasher does everything but wash cycle. Fills drains heats dumps the soap. You Can hear a click when it should wash then a slight buzzing or humming noise. Machine is less than 5 yrs old.
1 Answer Hello Leas, You will need to pull the tech sheet from the behind the kickpanel and run the diagnostics. The tech sheet will explain the fault codes and what they mean. Read More...
Bill June 03, 2014 for Model Number gu2700xtsq1 Dishwasher will run through a cycle until the time gets to 39 minutes remaining. I keeps on running over and over but does not count down any further. I replaced the control board, and still have the same problem. Any suggestions?? Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Bill. Test the heater and the high limit thermostat. Sounds like a heating error. 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...
Mark L May 31, 2014 for Model Number 665.13743k603 Pressing start immediately clears the wash mode light and the washer goes to standby. Hitting it again and it drains. Washer does drain fine, just wont wash.
1 Answer Mark, Based on the information that was provided it sound like there is a short in the start key on the unit. When pressing start it should never go into a drain cycle. The control panel part number is WPW10243209. Read More...
Edward K. April 14, 2014 for Model Number KUDS30FXSS1 Ran the service diagnostics several times. It doesn't clean anything in the top rack. All spray arms and tubes are all free of obstruction. Keeps showing low water. Also says overfill in stuck open position. Ohm meter shows overfill working just fine. Shows all the circuits working. Fill valve seems to work just fine. Don't know if the OWI sensor is bad. Plenty of water getting to the valve. No blockage to the fill valve. The control board is 6 months old. I just don't know what else to check. Dishwasher is only 4 years old and I'm not ready to trash it yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Edward, First thing you should do is verify the water pressure to the dishwasher. Since they fill on a timed basis, if low water pressure is the issue, it will not fill with enough water if the water pressure is too low from the shut-off valve not being fully opened or if the valve connection is fouled with sedimentation and/or mineral deposits. The water valve may not be opening fully due to a mechanical problem that will not show up on a test meter. You could have a heavy float switch that is shutting the water off pre-maturely. There could be an issue with the control which would also prevent the proper fault codes from being displayed. Lastly, you could have a stopped up filter or check valve or a separated spray arm interfering with the water pressure. Read More...
Roger April 12, 2014 for Model Number DU1055XTSD2 I have a Whirlpool dishwasher model #DU1055XTSD2. Water will not heat for normal or high temp wash cycles but the heating element is good because it heats during the heated dry cycle. Ran the diagnostics and it failed during the thermistor check. The only part I can find that seems to be a thermistor is the turbidity sensor, which appears to be a combination soil sensor and thermistor? Your site shows it as part #25 on the pump and motor parts diagram, part #W10134017. Does this seem like it might be the right part for the symptoms I am experiencing?
Steve November 12, 2013 for Model Number w10073650 I have a one and half year old whirlpool gold series dishwasher. It will not drain the water at the end of the cycle. I took the drain pump off and wire it to 110 and it ran fine. I hit the cancel / drain button and it clicks and that all it will do. Do you know of other things for me to check?
1 Answer Hello Steve. Test for power to the pump. If there si power, it needs to be replaced. If there is no power, check wiring and replace control board if needed. 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...
Brian May 03, 2013 for Model Number 665.13964k017 My 3.5 month old dishwasher developed a problem. It will not drain completely between cycles or at the end of the program. The drain pump runs and discharges a small flow when it runs. I have run the complete cycle holding the drain hose going directly into the sink. Between cycles it will leave wash water at the level of the heating element and then refill to start the rinse cycle. When completely done there is water still remaining at the level of the element. Pressing the cancel/drain button will cause the tub to completely drain.
1 Answer Hello Brain. It is normal for some water to remain in the unit, but should not be visible with the door open. You will need to look for blockages in the drain hose and if there is none, replace the pump on the unit. Read More...
John April 08, 2013 for Model Number 665.13733k600 You guys helped me fix my dryer a week ago, now my dishwasher is broken. I'm having bad luck lately with my appliances. I'm hoping you will be able to help with this appliance as well. The dishwasher stopped in the middle of a cycle. The control pad is not responding and there are no lights. I pulled out the wiring diagram from under the dishwasher and I came across a suggestion to disconnect the keypad ribbon from the control circuit board. Then reassemble the panel and close the door.The next part of the instructions puzzle me. It says to disconnect and reconnect the thermister or OWI sensor two times in less than 6 seconds. Trouble is I have no idea where that is! Would you be able to tell me please? I have ordered a new bi metal thermal fuse from your site yesterday. I have a feeling though that it may not be the problem. I took the fuse out and tested it for continuity with my digital meter and it registered 0 which in my understanding means it is good. However when I replaced my cycling thermostat on my dryer it was registering continuity as well but it was still bad. So I don't trust the test. A dryer is one thing with its mechanical parts but the electronics on the dishwasher are annoying me. Any ideas what I can do?
1 Answer Hello John. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the thermal fuse W10258275 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Jerry March 04, 2013 for Model Number KUDS30CXWH0 I've had this dishwasher for about two years. Recently, the control panel started acting up. Some of the buttons no longer functioned, e.g., ProScrub option. Also, the Normal cycle would get to the Rinse cycle and then Cancel / Drain and turn off. I could occasionally get it to complete a cycle.I then replaced the control panel and all the lights and cycles appeared to be functional, but the problem remained. I did attempt to replace the control board, but the one I purchased did not have the plug for the control panel display and I returned it. However, I did install it before I realized the plug issue and the original problem remained. At this point I ran diagnostics to no avail. My question is what else could be the issues. As I see it, there are only two other part I could replace: the main control board (W10380685) and the sensor (W10134017). Any help would be much appreciated.
1 Answer Jerry, Are you sure you seated the new control pnel ribbon into the connector on the control board tightly and properly ? Did you try conducting the diagnostics, before you replaced the control panel ? The sensor WPW10705575 shouldn't cause the dishwasher to cancel and shut down during a cycle, it will extend or decrease the length of the cycle based on the degree of soil in the water. Based on your post, the control board WPW10380685 is the likeliest issue. Read More...
Nicole March 02, 2013 for Model Number MDB8959AWB5 Maytag dishwasher, turned it on, it make a noise and then stopped working.
1 Answer Hello Nicole, Was the noise the unit filling with water or a grinding noise or a clicking sound? It could be a piece of broken glass in the pump assembly. If you could give us a bit more information it would be much easier to diagnose the issue for you. Please re-post with more information and we will be happy to assist you. Read More...
