Question about Maytag MDB7100AWB Dishwasher

No power to control panel after power surge

Hi, Our dishwasher worked fine until today. I tried to use it and there is no power to the control panel. I push Auto Clean, and nothing happens, no lights turn on when I press any of the push pad. We had a power outage yesterday, however this is not the first one that we've had. I checked the breaker and it is fine. Any idesa? Thanks

Dishwasher was fine one day then the next it wouldn't "Drain/Off" until the following day and then it wouldn't "Normal Wash" OR any other cycle. We cleared it w/3 sec button (or so we thought) - still nothing! Did the circuit breaker thing, but still nothing. WHAT CAN WE DO???

Try turning the curcuit breaker off for a few minutes. Turn it back on and see if it resets itself. If not, the outage may have shorted out the main control panel.

Dishwasher not working, no lights on control panel

If your good with electricity get a meter and with the unit unplugged check the resistance across the thermal switch... it should be 0.0 ohms(omega symbol) if a thermal switch is blown it will be open. and read unlimited ohms... I doubt if it is the thermal switch. Check first if you have voltage to the control board you should have lights on it. If no light then probably The door interlock switch has failed,, that is the first thing that I would suspect as I had that happen on one of my units... figure out how to bypass it or operate it.

Had a power failure from bad weather now the dishwasher is dead? checked the fuse box the breaker is fine, there are no lights on the display panel. what is the reset procedure for this dishwasher?

Try turning the breaker for the dishwasher off for 30 seconds and turn it back on. This should reset the dishwasher control board. If it still doesn't work then most likely the power failure burned up the main control board. The control boards in the newer dishwashers are sensitive to any type of power surges or failures.

Hope this gets it running for ya.

My dishwasher wont start

Sounds like you need to check for power to the unit. Access is at bottom of dishwasher under panel. Next you will see the wiring coming into an enclosed electrical box. you will need to get to wires and check voltage on black hot wire to neutral with a voltage meter. If you have power but still doesn't work then at least you know the problem is with the unit and not the incoming power.

I have a GE Dishwasher model GSD4430X72WW.

Hi, the surge has fried the logic sector of the control. it will work upon reset until the logic chip is commanded to initiate a wash. thsi is when the fault will kick in. I recommend replacing the control. this is the best action.
