Washer control panel stuck on "rinse only" and "Sani Rinse" and is doing nothing. The lights for those two buttons are blinking on and off constantly. :confused: PLEASE ADVISE !!

Note: A couple of days ago the operations panel was stuck on "Control Lock," and one of your techs advised me to press and hold "Energy Saver Dry" and that unlocked the control board and we have been able to wash several loads of dishes since then with no hitches.

Thank You,

Hi John,

Most likely the problem is a stuck pad on the key panel. The correction is to replace the control panel. If you need the correct part number, post the color of the control panel.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL KUDS01IJBS0 UNDERCOUNTER DISHWASHER | AppliancePartsPros.com

Hello, I also had a blinking "Rinse Only" light so we replaced the control board. Then the "Normal" light began blinking and nothing else would work. So we replaced the control panel. It ran through the rinse cycle then stopped. Nothing works - no lights or anything. Could it be possible we blew the thermal fuse? I noticed we failed to replace the plastic shield that goes on the thermal fuse. Could that be the problem? Thanks so much!!

Yes, it is possible. All parts have to be installed as they were. You may want to check the thermal fuse for continuity.

Model# KUDP01SLSS0
My dishwasher stopped working a few days ago. The LED lights are lit and change when I select the different cycle types but the dishwasher doesn't start when the START button is pushed. When the dishwasher is operating properly, the LED light flashes twice after the START button is pushed indicating that the cycle will start once the door is closed. This is no longer occuring. Presently, it does not flash twice after the START button is pushed and does not start upon closing the door. Thanks in advance for any advice you have. The problem sounds similar to that of prior posts

It is possible that the problem is a bad thermal fuse. You have to check it for continuity.

The model number you posted does not come up. Verify and repost it please.

What should the desired result be when checking the fuse for continuity?

If the fuse is still good, the reading should be close to 0 Ohms.
