There are no blinking lights as others have mentioned. It won't do anything at all. This happened the other day and after about 30 minutes of working with it (just pushing buttons, not getting inside) the Light Wash button worked and it completed the cycle. Then the Normal Wash button worked and I hit Cancel to stop it after just a second. Help?
I hope it's still in warranty. Usually when power comes back on after a power failure, there is a power surge that takes out electronics.Sad, but true.

I just read this for the same problem: push sanitize, then heat and dry, sanitize, heat and dry, sanitize, heat and dry, cancel, then open and close the door. It worked. The dishwasher is running correctly even as I type this.

I suspect for either of these units that the timer control boards are bad.

you need a new cycle selector ...or "timer "....

Thanks for all the ideas, but mine must be a different model - it starts with 950 and has different buttons from those you have listed.
The buttons are (left to right): Rinse only/Light Wash/Normal Wash/Heavy Wash/Pots&Pans then Hi Temp Scour/Sani Rinse/Air Dry(Control Lock)/ Cancel-Drain. Any thoughts on what combination will reset it. The manual is useless.
My husband pulled it out a little, moved the power connections around and it worked. But before that we had been randomly pushing buttons so we don't know if that is what fixed it.
