Stopped in middle of cycle and clean light flashing. Cannot restart. Turned breaker off and then on and still light flashing. What to do?

Press the following buttons within 6 seconds....

Hi Temp--Heated Dry--Hi Temp--Heated Dry

All the lights will come on, wait about 30 seconds then press cancel. Make sure the door is closed securely and try another cycle. If it happens again, you have an issue with a component in the heating circuit. Let me know what happens and we can work through it if it starts flashing again.

Yes It did. It started like water was coming in. Ran for about 30-45 seconds. It then shut off and went back to start light flashing. Thanks

Thank you!

The heat circuit consists of several components including the element, control, door switch and tub thermostat(s). Can you see any issues with the heating element, like cracks or holes or any spots that are discolored?

One other thing if it is related. When lights are on in any form, I can change selections on panel with door open. Does this make any sense?
