I have a Kenmore Elite Dishwasher and when I try and start it the rinse and empty button lights up and then nothing happens. It stays lite up for a min or so then turns off. Does anyone know how to fix it or whats wrong with it.
Try removing the Kickplate and look to see if there is a troubleshooting guide. This may show the rinse and empty buttons being lit represent an error code.
Also look to see if there is water in the basin. If a float has been activated it will not go past a drain.
