I have tried unplugging it to make sure it was not the outlet. I am sure that is not the problem as the garbage disposal still works. Can someone please help me figure this out?

You will need to test the fuse and see if it is bad. The fuse is located on the control board. It should read closed or 0 for continuity. Here is the part number, as well as a link to the parts diagram page. Hope this helps. Part number: AP3178588

Hi Jeff, I ordered this part on Sunday and it was delivered today (2 days later). My husband swapped the parts thanks to your help and our dishwasher is now running again! We are thrilled to have found this site. I will let everyone know about appliancepartspros.com A million Thanks to you! Sincerely, California Mommy

Hi Jeff, My dishwasher is acting up again. It was working perfectly fine since my last message to you and suddenly yesterday it stopped working again. I am having the same exact problem as last time. I think this new fuse blew. I was also getting a smell coming from the dishwasher like burning plastic. (I did check the bottom to make sure there was no small plastic dish ware there) Do you have any idea what the problem can be? I am so grateful for your help. Thanks in advance :)

I will also mention that the wiring was not replaced with the fuse.

Hello californiamommy. You will need to replace the fuse again, and this time replace the wires. They had a problem with the wiring harness, and that is why they send the new one to splice in. If you replace the wire harness and the fuse, you should be fine. If you do not replace the wires sent with it, it will blow again. Hope this helps.
