Hello All,

I am experiencing the 7 second clean light blinking issue; so far I have downloaded the service manual and searched the archives for similar issues. I have been able to reset the unit, but during the reset process when the unit seems to check all functions, I hear what seems like motor noise. Basically it is a steady low frequency sound that a motor would make if it is not able to turn due to some sort of impedance.

From the threads that I have read, it seems to possibly be either a bad hi limit thermostat or heater element, but the motor noise seems to contradict this diagnosis.

Any help is appreciated.

Did you ever figure out the problem with your machine? My KitchenAid is having the exact same problem. Thanks

My Kitchenaid dish washer clean light is blinking 7 times then pause which makes me believe this means something. Did you guys figure out what is broken here?
