Clean light blinks. It blinks
Hi,
This machine was made by Whirlpool and the flashing clean light is a common error code for them.
If
the clean light is the one flashing then your dishawasher could have a
heater circuit problem (depending on the age) or this could simply just
be water colder than it is used to getting.
Repeatedly press the Heated Dry and Hi-Temp Wash(scrub) which ever yours has untill all the LED lights come on, press cancel twice and
try the dishwasher again making sure to run the water at the kitchen
sink till it is hot before starting the dishwasher, if this trips and
locks you have a problem with the heating element, or temp sensor.

the heated dry button followed by the normal cycle button, and then
repeat once. You should see all of the lights come on for a second or
two, and then the dishwasher will work again.

Hi
Thanks for using
FixYa. First of all please check the Water temperature by using a thermometer
inside the dishwasher to measure the water temp. It should be as close to 125
degree F to 140 degree F as possible. Now try using the temperature boost feature
if your dishwasher is equipped with this cycle feature and check if this will
help your wash ability issues.
Now check the
Powder soap by making sure that you store your soap in a dry environment and it
is not stale and clumping together. Possibly try a different detergent like a
liquid or gel. Also, make sure the dishes are loaded properly, or dishwasher is
not overloaded.
To check the
proper filling dishwasher will fill with water up to and around the heating
element. If water is more below the heating element, you may have low water
pressure or a problem with the fill valve. Try & listen if it sounds like
it is spraying the water around with enough pressure.
For low water
pressure, try to clean the screen at the entrance of the fill valve, sometimes
the fill valve can fail and not allow the proper water into the dishwasher and
may need to be replaced. And, check the spray arm and pump cover for
splits or leaks. Also make sure that the water is draining and is
not accumulated in the dishwasher, if it is in dishwasher then check
for clogged drain hoses and drain pump.
Low water fills
are a very common trouble maker with today's dishwasher.
Please do rate this solution and
revert for further assistance.
Thanks

Whirlpool Dishwasher No Power: GU1200XT dishwasher
Hi,
The thermal fuse protects the entire dishwasher circuit from overload. Not just the heater or motor, but everything. From the diagram in the tech sheet, you can see that this fuse is between the incoming line voltage and the door switch. This means it is controlling all power to the dishwasher. Any shorted component can open the fuse
You will get two new wires with the fuse kit.
You need to make sure you
use the new wires in the kit with the new fuse.The old wires have a bad connection that create heat and blow the old fuse
And in this link you can download Step by step instructions on how to install the 8193761 Thermal Cutoff in a whirlpool made dishwasher
