Hi
Thanks
for using FixYa. If the clean light flashes, pauses, and then repeats.
When the dishwasher doesn't sense a water temperature increase, it stops
working and locks the functions (clean light flashes, all buttons are
non responsive). It does this as a safety in case the element is broken and
feeding electrical current into the water.
To resolve this you will have to reset the console. Do this by closing the door
and press these buttons in sequence...
-high temp wash
-heated
dry
-high
temp wash
-heated
dry
All the lights will turn on briefly and the machine will start a diagnostic
cycle. You can press cancel or let the diagnostic cycle finish (1-2
minutes). You should now be able to run the dishwasher as normal. If the
issue returns, you could have a problem with the heating circuit (i.e. element,
thermostat or wiring). It rarely happens but it could also be the door
switch not engaging properly when the door is closed (slightly bend the door
latch down making sure it doesn't hit the door when you close it).
Please do
accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further
assistance.
Thanks

Hi,

have an older dishwasher also and recently my wife also complained
about it not cleaning right... so me being the man I am tried in vain
to clean the things... Bought new spray arms online and installed
them in minutes...now the thing works like new... However I have also
found that if the heating element goes bad then that also can mess
things up bad... So I would buy new spray arms, and also check out
the heating element to make sure it is working... Here is a tip that
