Mod #gu2500xtpb1 clean light flashes 7 times

remove the bottom kick panel,you'll see a tech sheet there in the plastic bag,it will tell you how to check to see if the heater or board is bad,the light will flash 7 times,it's an error code telling you that there's a heat problem.

Check, if you have water in the machine, if yes, your control board could at fault

1st unplug or dispower appliance for 2 min. Then, be sure door is cloesd, press heated dry key and Hitemp repeatedly until all lights on panel light up; if no....
The clean led blinks 7 times which indicates a heat circuit error.
Pull the kick plate off and behind should be a tech sheet..Look for heat cicuit... Check the heater for continuity..Some models come with kits main erc w heater....If heater test good then replace main erc and neutral line door switch located inside panel w main erc... Estimate for tech to repair $249-$329.... If you follow my directions you may soon one day become a tech..... A good tech would make $100-$150 on this job profit

if the light is flashing 7 times there's a heat problem and the dishwasher won't start,if you remove the bottom kick panel you'll see the tech sheet,it will tell you about the flashing error codes, count how many times it flashes and look up the code,if it is 7 times you either have a bad heater or computer board,if you look at diagram it will show you how to read out the heater from board to see if the heater is bad or it's the board.

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

Flashing light is reset by pressing two buttons in sequence 3-4 times, to reset your dishwasher press these buttons in sequence:

High temp wash-heated dry-high temp wash-heated dry

Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

The electronic control looks for a temp. rise of 2-4 degrees. If no temp.rise control assumes a heater fault and blinks clean light 7 times. Bad heater. Water fill when completed can be no less than 1/2 inch below heater. If so, water valve probably. Circulation motor not working properly. Neutral door switch. Tech sheet is behind bottom cover. Check underneath of unit for leaking or white hard water deposits. Common for seals to leak. If unit is unusually noisy, motor problem. Common after 4-5 years. Will check back to see if you other questions. Good luck.

Hello, I have a Whirlpool DWF A10. The machine starts then stops after a short while and the indecator light flashes 7 times. What does this mean? Any body come across this?

This information may help in your situation. This can be a common problem on some Whirlpool manufactured dishwashers. The following link explains how you may be able to clear the blinking clean light problem:

Now, keep in mind all dish washers are not alike and have different panel options. If you do not have the same set up that I have mentioned, the tech sheet for your dishwasher will explain the touch pad functions. The tech sheet is located behind the lower toe panel under the door and lists the proper sequence of buttons to push for diagnostics and troubleshooting.

NOTE: Sometimes the tech sheet is located behind the inner door panel. You will need to remove the screws securing the inner panel to access it if this is the case. Make sure you turn off the main power breaker before doing so.

Sometimes this can be a momentary glitch in operation. However, if the problem keeps reoccuring the number of flashes is an indication of which circuit is causing your problem. Again, refer to your tech sheet to determine this.

If you have any questions, please let me know. I hope this helps you solve your problem.
