Our Kitchen Aid dishwasher started a probelm with the Normal Wash led blinking. After a week or so and repeated tries it started working correctly.
Problem is now back after not using the dishwasher for about 3 months.
Normal Wash LED blinks, hitting Clear stops it.
Rinse LED is always on very dim.
Hitting "4 hour delay" and then Normal Wash and then Start, lights all 3 leds and then turning off the 4 hour delay starts the wash but it stops after about 30 seconds.
Then hitting Clear restarts the wash but it stops after 30 seconds. hitting Clear will repeat the 30 second run
Does anyone have suggestions? Can anyone send the link to the proper service page so I can get the correct sequences of button pushes to clear the memory (before I start replacing parts - growl)?
Thanks,
Al
