Dishwasher won't start wash cycle

My dishwasher won't start a wash cycle. All of the front panel buttons illuminate. The drain motor starts when the Drain button is pushed, but the Start/Resume button neither illuminates, nor starts the cycle. The first two times that I pulled it out to check connections, it started after pushing it back in place, but now nothing. I've already tried flipping the breaker for a few minutes.

Soluzione Prescelta

Cause 1

Touchpad and Control Panel

First, ensure that the display works. If the dishwasher display is working but the some of the button don’t respond correctly, the touchpad and control panel might need to be replaced. (Some manufacturers sell the touchpad separately from the control panel. Other manufacturers require that you purchase the touchpad and control panel together. If you cannot replace the touchpad individually, replace the touchpad and control panel.)

Cause 2

Touchpad

First, confirm that the dishwasher display is working. If the display is still working, try pressing some of the touchpad buttons. If some of the buttons respond correctly but others don’t, it is likely that the touchpad is at fault. (Some manufacturers sell the touchpad separately from the control panel. Other manufacturers require that you purchase the touchpad and control panel together. If you cannot replace the touchpad individually, replace the touchpad and control panel.)

Cause 3

Main Control Board

The main control board regulates nearly every function in the dishwasher. If there is a problem with the main control board, it might not send voltage to the dishwasher touchpad, causing the touchpad buttons not to work. Control boards are often misdiagnosed; make sure you test more commonly defective parts before replacing the main control board.

Go to your fuse box and turn the power to the dishwasher off for about 10-15 seconds turn back on. This should resolve your problem. Kenmores are notorious for this issue.

On some Kenmore dishwashers, hold in the start button until cycle button lights up AND WAIT two minutes before dishwasher starts. The owners manual will explain how to start the dishwasher. If the control panel lights up, more than likely there’s nothing wrong with the dishwasher.
