Main Control board.. SHOT.. I think

I have taken the control board off and it looks like it and a wire connected to it almost caught fire.

I am not a appliance repairman but Im a pretty good DIY person.

On the board Where it is labeled CON2 the brown wire and the metal connector on the board are burnt.

The insulation on the wire is melted off. The board is brown. The solder is pretty much all gone on the connector on the board.

Please advise on how to fix this.

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to attach a picture.

Here are your parts
Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL KUDI01ILBL3 UNDERCOUNTER DISHWASHER | AppliancePartsPros.com

See the attachment for the tech sheet.

Looks like the burner wire goes to the Soil Sensing Pressure Switch.
I could not find this switch in the parts so am not sure if your unit even has one.

At minimum you need a new wiring harness (Item 12 in Section 3) and a control board (Item 11 in Section 2).
At a combined price of around $200.00 I would probably get a new dishwasher.

If you have some electrical/electronic experience you could jiggery pokery it.
It is important that you figure out why this wire overheated.
This will take some circuit tracing to figure out what they are doing with this line if in fact you do not have a pressure switch.
