This dishwasher stopped running after about 10 minutes when it first acted up.After that it had about every light on the display panel on or flashing in the 6 months we've not been using it.Tonight I tried it and closed the door and hit light wash.The normal wash light came on and it started and it filled with water.When I pushed cancel it continued to run.The sensing cycle light stayed on for 1 hour and then it moved to wash.I opened the door and the water had drained and steam came out.After another 30 minutes it moved to the clean cycle light.The time remaining light stayed dark the whole time but then it displayed Lo when the clean light came on.I don't know if I need the control panel AP4366833 or the switch AP3561117 but it seems like it would be one of them and I don't want to replace parts till I find the problem.

You truly can't tell what part is needed without an error code or a diagnostic test performed. It had a PF and a CL error code and sometimes all 4 lights for the different cycles would be lighted.Other times they would not be on.It seemed to have run full cycle last nght but the time remaining light never did come on the whole time it ran.I may have to call the dreaded repair guy and have him tell me what it is for 65 bucks.

[FONT="]This might be a professional job for you, so you may have to spend that $65 to have it completely diagnosed by a professional and get an estimate for the work. Then contact Frigidaire to see if you have any warranty on the unit at all. Couldn't hurt. [/FONT]
Talked with them and they said sorry.I explained it was less than 3 yrs. old and promised to never buy another one of their products and they said "Thank you.Is there anything else I can help you with today ? "Now today it will do nothing but light up the Normal Wash Light when any button is pushed.Calling in the pros.Thanks for the advice.
