Hi crandon,
huuum, to your rescue,


You said, dishwasher starts but there is "burning" before any cycle begins
STOP, do not use the dishwasher till you call service!
This is a fire hazard if you continue to run this machine!

I am not there hands on to help you so you must not use it till you get professional help out to diagnose this matter!
Bless You,
huuum

How can I interrupt my dishwasher cycle without causing it drain out all the water and then have to start from the beginning?

Hey friend, thank you for the post!
From my understanding you are trying to interrupt your dishwasher cycle without causing it to drain all the water out and then have to start it from the beginning. Once the door has been opened the wash cycle will stop and once it has been closed again your appliance would start up where the cycle left off. Hope this is helpful - Matt

Built in dishwasher. Dishes are clean but leaves the interior dirty. Have cleaned it with dishwasher cleaner, then a few weeks later its grubby again.. This has just been happening in the last few...

Check your drain hose to make sure no water from the sink is draining back into the dishwasher.
If it is,re-hook the drain hose up high under the sink.
Next.
Start the dishwasher without dishes or detergent.
Once the fill and was cycle begins,open the door and por in 1 quart of WHITE vinegar and resume the wash cycle to completion.

Burning smell coming from dishwasher caustic to nose. GE Potscrubber 900. Nothing on element upon inspection. Smell more at beginning of wash cycle or when using the pot scrubber button

Older GE's had problem with drain coils over heating
Remove the bottem front plate and the coil will be on the left side of the moter and activate when the drain cycles, check that

Cycle begins and we can hear water filling up, but the arm doesn't spin, and water isn't being "sprayed" around the washer. We can hear the dishwasher "clicking" throughout the cycle, but nothing else is...

There are a couple of things here. One is the pump is not coming on. The other is the unit leaking. Check the door seal for rips or tears on the bottom. Replace as needed. Also check the sump in the bottom of the unit to see if it has a lot of debris in it. This can cause the pump to not start. It could be more complex like the water valve is not shutting down all the way. The control board is bad etc.

LG LDF6810 Dishwasher Starts filling with water then pumps water

Because you are not getting an error message, I agree that the controller card is malfunctioning. Almost everthing else would triger an error.
Recommend replacing the controller card.
