Hey Guys,

My Kenmore dishwasher 587.15079200 has power and the door switch is good. I push the Normal wash button and the led light comes on, but when I push the start button, nothing happens. The Normal wash light then times out after 15 seconds. I tried power off and back on and that didn't work either. anybody got any ideas?

Thanks in advance....

Danny.

Danny,

The first thing I would do is check if the door switch(es) is properly engaged when the door is locked.

I did that, the door switch works and voltage comes from switch when door is closed.

thanks,

danny.

Open the control panel, unplug the ribbon from the control board and clean it using a pencil eraser. Plug it back and check the dishwasher. If it would not help then most likely the touch pad has to be replaced.

- The part number for the membrane switch is AP3211387
