Normal light and pots and pans light were blinking togetherand I tried the reset method of "normal-heated dry normal-heated dry" with the door open then closing the door and nothing changed. Now just the normal light blinks (dont know when the other one stopped). I'm wondering if I should proceed with the steps as given for the Resetting the Whirlpool Quiet Partner III to detirmine if its the control or the key pad. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Armstrong, Here's another way to test for a bad "keypad" CHECKING KEYPAD
OPERATION
A rapidly blinking LED over
one of the keys of the keypad
(or sometimes a “dead”
keypad/console) indicates one
or more key switch lines are
stuck or shorted on either the
control or the keypad. To
determine if the control or
keypad is faulty, do the
following test:
1. Unplug dishwasher or disconnect
power.
2. Open the dishwasher door.
3. Open console and disconnect the
keypad ribbon connection from
the control (at P1). Make sure all
other connections are made.
4. Put console back together. Do not
close the dishwasher door.
5. Plug in dishwasher or reconnect
power.
6. Wait 5 seconds.
7. Close dishwasher door.
8. Monitor the control’s response:
➔If the control is OK (no longer
sees shorts with the keypad
unplugged), it will respond by
turning on a Drain Motor for
2 minutes. Check and/or
replace the keypad if the
control responds OK.
➔If the control is not OK (still
sees shorts with the keypad
unplugged), then the drain
motor will NOT respond and
will remain off. If no response,
replace the control.
I'm pretty sure you have a bad key pad/control panel assembly,but is another tool to varify it.
Good Luck,
:) :) :)
