I had to move my dishwasher to the garage in the process. Reinstalled dishwasher. Turned on power. Drain motor will run for a few seconds then stops with "Heavy Duty" light flashing. No buttons are responsive at this time. Pressing "Cancel" will get the "Normal" button to flash also. Can't get it to run Diagnostic via the tech sheet. It ran fine before I changed out the inlet valve. Wondering if something messed up when I was moving it around? I've checked all the wire connections.

I've checked all the wire connections. Ended up taking the door apart, disconnected the touchpad and restarted. Drain motor kicked on. By the tech manual, this would say the touchpad is defective. Took off the touchpad and tested each button with ohm meter. Got all buttons to work. Reinstalled touchpad and checked all the connections inside the door. Works fine now. Don't know if I had a sticky button or loose connection, but take it apart and put it back together. It works more often than it should.
