I tried the Cancel button and it didn't work. When I Iooked closer the lock light/icon was nearest the Heat Dry button and sure enough when I held that down it unlocked - so try whatever button is nearest the lock icon/light.

Blinking auto lock Whirlpool

What does it say in fine print right under control lock? "Press & Hold"? Page 16 of the user manual shows it as "air dry" with two lights, twelve and three o'clock positions. It says hold it for four seconds and the light turns off.

I am locked out of cycle with clean light blinking green and cannot find my manual, dishwasher is about 1 year old. Is there a sequence to break this cycle? I turned off power for 60 seconds to no avail.

Hi
I have not seen this model in Australia, but normally if you hold down "Start/Stop" button for 3 to 5 seconds, that should clear the cycle.
Otherwise if you have a Clear button press that for 3-5 seconds.

I have a Whirlpool Dishwasher Model #GU240CXTPB1. The normal light won't stop blinking. Tried turning the breaker to reset, but still blinks. No other button works.

Whirlpool dishwasher reset sequence is usually to hit the heat dry then normal then heat dry then normal buttons within 5 seconds and it usually resets.

Air Dry Button just flashes

that is the fault code indicating the button is stuck. the touchpad must be replaced. the lock light indicated two or more buttons activated at same time
