Something is wrong with either the timer or the motor. On a normal cycle it starts at 78 minutes and gets down to 48 minutes and it stays stuck at 48 minutes for approximately another 45minutes to an hour and then eventually the timer climbs down to zero and the cycle finishes.

SOURCE: Dishwasher wont finish cycle

I have experienced this problem before and it turned out to be the main control board in the console. Not a cheap fix, either. The control boards are not serviceable, and can run over $100. Sorry, I hope I was of some help.

It indicates a water temp problem. If water temp doesn't rise at a certain rate, by the heater, it goes into this error. Probably a problem with heater or wires to it.

Mine eventually "fixed itself". I think some debris got caught and eventually (5 cycles or so) got ground up and sent through the drain. The noise changed each time it got closer "flushing out"

SOURCE: Stuck on wash cycle

Do you set your cycles by a manual timer or do you have a digital display?If a timer then it most likley bad or its stuck---if thats the case try wd40 behind it and see if it loosens,If your unit is digital then the control board is most likley bad,let me know.

Got a Kenmore dishwasher Stock No. 17572. At about 78 minutes, my timer (I think it's the timer) starts to make a loud grinding sound. Sounds to me like gears meshing badly. Any thoughts?

Year make model of the vehicle. Sounds like the gearbox micromesh timer :>D




All question need 'make model (what it is)' as first 3 words.

Kenmore dishwasher: Pre-wash cycle is too short: fills with water, runs for only one second, and then drains. The rest of the cycle is fine; the dishes get clean.

Pre-wash may be compromised and a new power circuit board may be needed.
My advice: As long as the other cycles are accurate and work as usual; Pre-wash in your sink (spray off waste material) before you place the dishes in the washer and commence cleaning. Its best to wash off food and other material before washing in the machine to avoid clogging the drains and pump.

Dishwasher motor starts and stops

Hey Bill,
Not professing to be any kind of a dishwasher repairman but I have had a similar issue with the start and stop thing and it turned out to be the timer motor had started to go, and in going it 'burned' a couple of sets of the contacts as well. Check with a local appliance repair centre and see first if they agree with me, and if they have anyone who can rebuild the timer - Typically not too hard to get access to and remove - In my case in Canada, it had to go to Toronto pre-paid but $70 was cheaper then a new dishwasher and it's worked great for years

Dishwasher not working. lights come on but dishwasher will not start. when you hit cancel/stop, 2 minutes appear and there is a huming sound and it counts down and goes off. When u turn on the wash cycle,...

the dw is probably full of water because the motor didnt pump it out
because the impellor on the motor has stripped thread and not drainning the water when u hit cancel /stop the timer is asking the d/w to drain and end the cycle. If u wait 2 mints after u start the machine do u then here a hum from the motor trying to wash
if the d/w dosnt have water in it and you turn it on it should fill or there is a problem with the inlet water valve or timer or no power to the water valve a appliance tech should determine this probably more than normall person should attempt
( solv ya prob)

Dishwasher during normal cycle gets hung up and does not advance

HI. this is just a control fault. you can try to reset the core program by unplugging this unit for 5 minutes. this will drain all power and reset the core on the timer/control.

If you experience the same situation after this reset, simply replace the control/timer module.

Kenmore dishwasher 58715142400 fills but doesn't wash

Motor has gone out..just like mine...Make sure u have voltage going to the motor, (disconnect the plug from the motor) and use an electric meter to make sure you have voltage going to the motor. If so the motor has either gone out or has been blocked by something! If no noise except clicking then motor has gone out. Looking at about $150 for motor.
