I have a D3450 that was doing the same. Eventually I ascertained that there was a pressure switch that was not functioning properly. On the D3250 it was only accessible from the rear after taking off the lower panel on the back. It was a black part with a red membrane of sorts. I just disconnected its wire connector instead of replacing the part as it was rather expensive. I've been running mine machine at least 2x day for months since with no problems. Good luck!
The thing that immediately comes to mind is a faulty door switch or latch. The door switch can be replaced and you might be ok. But the latch would be more tricky to check. Sometimes if dishwasher is not level or if the door springs are misalinged the door tends to slip and release the latch due to pressure. It works when you open and shut. But not sure about the night time cycle. That sounds a bit creepy if it starts again by itself. Why not put a tape around the door and then start. That will help eliminate the obvious ones. The other thing that exends dishwasher cycle time is the lack of adequate water temperature. Could be heater or thermostat or both.

I just had this problem and it seemed to be fairly easy to fix. Some times when you open and close the door interrupting washing cycles, the latch will think it is already latched. Even though it will still close with pressure, it seems like it will pop back out on you. Here's the fix. If you open the door, you will see a white plastic accepting latch that can be flipped back into the fully open direction using a screwdriver. That seemed to do the trick.
If the first start button is blinking then there is a door error...the door switch is not closing... to repair
1) turn off the power at the breaker...
2 ) remove screws in the door T20
3) remove contol panel (slide up)
4) place wire tie behind micro switch on door latch...
5) replace door latch and door.

Is there water in the drip pan? My asko developed a leaky inlet solenoid, which would fill the drip pan eventually causing a failure. If the water evaporated, the washer would run. Normally, there should be no water in the drip pan.
