I have never scene a dishwasher do this. Sometimes it works fine and
sometimes random light start flashing in no particular order. It's not just one or two lights that blink, all of the lights will flash in no pattern at all. Sometimes you can get it to stop by disconnecting the power. It sometimes will then work for about a couple minutes then stop in the middle of the cycle and start flashing randomly. The only thing I can think of is the main circuit board; the part # on it is w10208673. Thanks in advance.

Rich, try this first, Remove the control panel, and disconnect the key pad ribbon from the control board connector. Clean the insertion end of the ribbon connector and the pins in the connector, with alcohol, and re insert the ribbon. put a thin coat of vaseline around the ribbon and connection, and try it again. If the problem persists, replace the control panel/key pad assembly. Part number: AP4507741
Good Luck, :) :) :)

So far so good, took everything apart and cleaned all the connections I could. It has been running for about 15 min. I haven't been able to get it to run for about a day now. Hopefully this works.

You did put the vaseline around the ribbon and connector, that will help keep impurities and moisture out of the connection. If or when the problem returns, order and install the new control panel and key pad assembly, and follow the same procedure. Hopefully, it will be a while. :) :) :)
