My dishwasher for a while took forever to get off the 37 when the minute cycle wash counting down. After a while it would finish. Now when I turn it on, I get a clicking sound, and then nothing. A little while later more clicking and nothing. Then it goes through the cycle and doesn't wash the dishes and the water is still in the bottom. Once in a while it will wash them fine, then it does nothing again. Thanks for any help.

A Model Number may help others help you, probably why you have not received a reply yet.

I would try disconnecting the unit from power for half an hour or so just to see if it will reset.
Next I would clean/check the keypad connection

RIBBON CABLE CLEANING
Unplug the unit
Open it up
Remove the ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board at the control board.
Clean the edge connector.
If it is the type where there is not a connector just the insulation is removed, it can be cleaned with a pencil eraser. Do not use an ink eraser as it is too abrasive.
Check the tracks in the ribbon cable for hairline cracks. A magnifying glass helps here.
Would not hurt to clean the connector on the board. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush. Be gentle and do not reconnect till all the solvent evaporates.
Reconnect everything and give it a try.
