SOURCE: Quick Rinse light was flashing at end of cycle.

Ok try this, open the door and then hit these buttons in the following combination. HI TEMP - DRY - HI TEMP - DRY...then close door and press cancel...then wait for the pump to shut down. you should be able to run a cycle after this...If this fails to fix the problem give me the make and model # of the dishwasher, this can normally be found just inside the door.

SOURCE: Kenmore Ultra Wash Dishwasher - Blinking Quick Rinse Light

My guess is that the foil that the buttons are mounted to is defective.  The control module "reads" the buttons that are pushed by the fact that the resistance between two pins on the circuitboard becomes zero ie. your pushing the button shorts out two pins.  the foil could have moistire damage or the resiistance of the tracks could be too high.  Solution for both would be to replace the control panel button foil.

Try this solution first
Push the Hi-temp and then push the Sani-rinse. Go back and forth multiple times on these two buttons. I found that after a handfull of pushes that a "1" came up on the display. I continued to keep rotating the two buttons and then a "2" came up on the display and the dishwater started it's "drain" phase. I then hit cancel to clear and then I selected the cycle I wanted. The washer started up just as normal at this point.

It is the touchpad that is faulty.. coz if the control board is faulty the unit may not respond to any button at all.. So just get a new touch pad.. If you want to buy it online.. then let me knnow i will get you the link..

SOURCE: Kenmore Ultra Wash Dishwasher LIghts are blinking....

I just read this for the same problem: push sanitize, then heat and dry, sanitize, heat and dry, sanitize, heat and dry, cancel, then open and close the door. It worked. The dishwasher is running correctly even as I type this.

Kitchen Aid dishwasher won't start. All keypad buttons/lights appear to be functional.

The touch pads are common to go bad. It could be a bad start switch pad or bad control board.

Dishwasher won't start and start button doesn't light, but other buttons respond

I think you still have warranty, it sounds you have faulty control panel, even if it's new does not mean it is good.

My Kenmore 665 has the pots/pans, hi temp and heated dry lights on. It won't cancel or start. Is there a reset button, or what would be the problem?

This means the touch pad has failed, You would need to replace the touch pad to fix this issue.
You can purchase the touch pad from the link below.

Start button wont respond

If all the other buttons work except the start button, you have a faulty touch pad that will need to be replaced. Below is a link to a video you will want to download so you can see how to replace the touch pad.

Dishwasher won't start

Replace the control board, or...if you're capable, resolder the control board joints for the wire connectors and the relays.
That fixed mine after I wasted money on a heater.

Dishwasher lights are all flashing

If you do have the Touch Control Electronic Pad, then you do have a problem, moisture related. You need to open the panel, use a Hairdryer to dry the panel properly and replace. This sorts many of these Touch Control Electronic Pad.
