On Sat nite, my dishwasher decided it didn't want to wash. I had used it already 3 or 4 times during the day. The clean lite was blinking as usual. I pushed the setting buttons, but when I push Start, it blinks a few times, and then Clean starts blinking again. I can push the Cancel/Drain button and it seems to be working. There is a little symbol that looks like a padlock, but there is no button to go with it. All of the buttons function, it just won't start washing. I tried turning off the power to reset it, but that didn't work either. It has never given me a problem since installation last spring. It may not be a Whirlpool, but I think it is. I'm at work and I can't remember what it says on the front.:confused:

Hi dreamunicorn
The Clean light blinking seven times in a row, means the control is sensing a problem with the heat circuit. It could be the heater or the hi limit thermostat.
In order to provide the most accurate advise I need the complete model number of the dishwasher. You can find it on the door frame.

I have the same problem. The model for the Whirlpool is Gold Quiet Partner III. The Model Number is GU2400XTPS1. The same flashing of the Clean button and it won't start. How much are the parts? How can I tell which one it is? and Can I replace it myself? I am a little technically inclined. Meaning I can follow directions.:) Thanks for the help.

I couldn't find the model number. The only thing on the door was a sticker with Whirlpool's phone numbers on it and basic setting temps. It is a Whirlpool Quiet Partner I. I did determine that it is not locked.

The name plate with the model and the serial numbers is not on the door but on the door frame.

The model number is DU1048XTPQD and the serial number is FS0901113. The link for the instruction you sent in your next email wasn't valid. Thanks.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have the same problem with my Kenmore Model 66517032401. I checked out the link for the instructions, but I don't know how to "initiate a service diagnostic cycle". BTW - I can't find my owners manual.
