It is likely the door latch microswitch is faulty and preventing the controller from confirming if the door is shut or not. Or it is possible the door latch mechanism is preventing door from shutting. It looks like this.

SOURCE: Power going to dishwasher but nothing happens??

Gina, you probably blew a thermal fuse that sits on the control board. Easy fix. Have your husband first check the wiring to the dishwasher. Remove the toe panel and make sure the wire nut connections are good. If that is ok, he will have to remove the inner door screws to get to the control board. Lift out the inner door. Remove the control board cover, it just snaps off. He will see the thermal fuse on the upper right side. I will attach a photo of what it looks like...Catriver...post back

Control Lock means that the entire dishwasher is locked, for child safety purposes.  It's normally cleared by holding the "No Heat Dry" button in for 4 seconds or more.  It is locked again by the same procedure -- holding the "No Heat Dry" button for 4 seconds (or more.  I'd suggest trying this on yours...

SOURCE: Maytag Dishwasher Doesn't Start

on a dishwasher an ohmmeter is almost useless. the best way to check is to look for voltage. at the door switch check for voltage to ground on both sides. if you have 120 on both sides of the switch then follow the wire over to the control board. if you have 120 going into the control board and nothing coming out of the control then you nood to start looking for a broken neutral. however the likelyhood that its the control panel may be a better idea especially if you are hitting buttons and nothing happens. try reseating any ribbon cables

SOURCE: I cannot unlock the controls on the panel

Try turning the circuit breaker off for 30 minutes. Then turn back on and see. If it keeps locking you may need new control console. Hope this helps.

Swan dishwasher not working

If you have checked the power supply and it is not the issue, it is possible that the control board or other internal components of the dishwasher may have malfunctioned. Here are a few things you can try:
  1. Check the dishwasher's door latch to ensure that it is closed properly. If the latch is not engaged, the dishwasher will not start.
  2. Check the dishwasher's circuit breaker to see if it has tripped. If it has, reset the breaker and try starting the dishwasher again.
  3. Make sure the dishwasher's control panel is not locked. Some models have a control lock that can be activated by pressing and holding a certain button or combination of buttons. If the control panel is locked, the dishwasher will not start.
If none of these steps help, it may be best to contact a professional appliance repair technician to diagnose and repair the issue.

Does this dishwasher have a lock button?

Hello - Yes, it does have a child lock control. It is design to prevent children from accidently change the dishwasher cycle or starting the dishwasher. It locks the dishwasher controls by pressing and releasing the DELAY TIME icon for 3 seconds. Do you see an indication lock light on your dishwasher illuminate? It will usually appear when the controls are locked and no new selections can be made until the lock is released. To unlock the controls, press the DELAY TIME icon under the indicator light goes out.

Our Kenmore Dishwasher just stopped working. The control panel does not light up at all. I need to know how to reset the computer control panel. I thought I would try that first if it is possible.

Hello

If your control panel does not light up it will most likely be a blown fuse that clips onto the control panel and ya might want to check that first. This tip i wrote tells ya how to check that fuse.

to reset the board this tip covers how to do that

Once again though when the control need to be reset the clean light flashes a specific number of times. So so it will not even come on check the fuse first.

No lights on prima lpr 600 dishwasher just keeps filling up with water not draining

When there is no light at all, and machine is stuck with inlet valve open from start, then it is probably a faulty timer control board.

Before replacing the control board , the inlet valve, wiring harness, and additional electronic controls must be tested.

Try also unplugging the appliance from main, or tripping circuit breaker to cut power for ten minutes. ~This may unlock a jammed control board.

Dishwasher lights are all flashing

If you do have the Touch Control Electronic Pad, then you do have a problem, moisture related. You need to open the panel, use a Hairdryer to dry the panel properly and replace. This sorts many of these Touch Control Electronic Pad.

Blinking normal and cancel lights

I had the same problem- needed a new control panel. good luck. Didn't bother going through kitchen aid even though its still under warranty- figured they'd nail me on labor (it's in the 2- 5 yr warranty period) and I'd be waiting forever. had a private appliance tech take care of the problem.
