I'm ready to replace my fuse. The directions with the fuse are poorly written. After searching the web, I believe the new fuse needs to be relocated. Where? or just farther away than the original position?
And what does the mylar shield shield against?
My questions may be premature but it seems as though the directions are written poorly to confuse the homeowner DIY-er :confused:

Did you order the new fuse? If yes, have you received it yet? What did you find unclear in the instructions (attached to the reply)? The new fuse can NOT be relocated. The purpose of the mylar shield is to insulate the thermal fuse from hot steam. Gene.

What I found unclear was too many instructions for such a simple job.
I do have the fuse and it was installed yesterday. So far, so good!
Everythings working!
As for relocating the fuse, I think some other info I found on the web said
move the fuse further from the original location but now I see they meant
there is a longer length of wire isolating the fuse even though it remains in the original
location.

You may want to start the troubleshooting from checking the door switch(es). If there is nothing wrong, replace the control board. - The control board Part number: AP4309110

I replaced the control board and it does the same thing only now it will only work for just a few seconds instead of a full wash before the Normal light starts flashing. Although it did work for about five min the first time i turned the power on after replacing the board. Any ideas ? Thanks again

Remove the bottom panel and locate the soil sensor (#25 on the diagram). It is mounted on the sump assembly. Unplug the dishwasher. Open the console and disconnect the keypad ribbon from the control board at P1. Plug the dishwasher back. With the door latched, disconnect and reconnect the sensor two times in less than 6 seconds. Wait 10 seconds, then monitor the control's response. Listen for the dishwasher to begin filling after it concludes 5-10 seconds display test at the beginning of the service diagnostics test. If it does it, replace the control panel. If it would not do it, the control board you installed is defective. If you need the correct part number for the control panel, post the color of it. Gene.

Thanks, I did the test and it pumped water in and ran for about 10 min. So I ordered the control panel. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks for your help.
