Frigidaire dishwasher not working

Unplug it for ten or so minutes and that might reset it..

The buttons and the display panel are not lit when the machine is running. This is to save energy according to frigidaire. I wish I had know this before purchasing it about a year and a half ago. The cycle count down timer was a big reason I purchased this one, but what good is it if it only works when the door is open?

did you hold the start/resume button for at least 3 seconds if this works the dishwasher will start ok but if there is a fault it will fail again best you contact your nearest service agent good luck

My Frigidaire 500, 1100, 1400, 1500 & 2400 Series Dishwasher was purchased a month ago and it will not start either. The 8 second lock under "Heat Dry" is lit, but nothing happens when you press any of the other buttons. Any ideas?

by the descrition you are giving you will need to replace the main control board.Part number 154568401.you may also need to check the float switch.The part will run about 110.00 dollars from a local parts store

Some fault in the dishwasher is causing it to believe the door is not locked.

I would check the door lock.

check this youtube video out for the location of the door switch.

(quality of video may not be the best but gives an idea of its location).

If you can give me the exact model number I can find out more details of the problem you are having.

replace the button switch

Hmmm...don't know why this worked, but it did. When the lights were flashing when I tried to start my Frigidaire dishwasher model#FDB1500LF, nothing would happen...just blinking lights, so I went to the house electrical panel, found the switch for the dishwasher, turned off & on again, and now the dishwasher works.
Go figure.

Had the same problem, removed the kick panel to find a set of instructions under the insulation, had to push a sequence of the panel buttons, its been running great for a couple of weeks now!
