It appeared that the heating coil is not working properly. That seemed possible given that the dishwasher is about seven years old. I was pretty sure about that until today when the cycling seems all mixed up. Mostly it just sits there and hums away.
Is this hooked up to a insta hot under the sink? if so, the insta hot could be bad or the line coming from it could be clog meaning that there's no water coming into the dishwasher .

igsanders.. that is a heater fault code. toggle between heated dry and normal until all light light up . press cancel. now ensure door closes without striking cabinet and the unit is level. this fault normally has nothing to do with the heater but rather the nuetral to the door switch which it shares with the heater.it will now operate again.

Can you be more specific? Does the dishwasher fill and then overflow?

something in the heater circuit -or- the motor has died. I found the front bearing on mine was toast.

Control is programmed to stop
running and not allow any
further cycles if it detects a
water heating problem (no
temperature increase detected
in heated Main Wash on
3 consecutive cycles). Control
blinks the Clean LED 7 times
repeatedly and disables the
Start/Resume key until
cleared.
Running Diagnostics clears the
control and allows it to operate
again. The water heating problem
must be fixed or the control will
stop running again. See potential
causes below.
Heater circuit problem:
■ Open in heater.
■ Open connection or
component in heater circuit.
■ Faulty heater drive circuit on
control.
1. Check operation of heater in
Diagnostics cycle.
2. Unplug dishwasher or disconnect
power.
3. Check resistance of heater and all
components and connections in the
water heating circuit or heat dry
circuit.

if the bottom tub is filling with water but not washing the issues is with the wash motor, some of this model use a start capacitor that can fail, if it has a capacitor on the side of the motor it may have failed but are difficult to diagnose but are cheap to replace so worth trying, if this doesn't help or if it doesn't have a capacitor then the fault is with the wash motor.
Testimonial: "I'm going to spend this Sunday morning uninstalling completely and checking out the motor...and...if present....the capacitor. If it has a capacitor I'm going to try replacing that....if not....I'm not going to try replacing the motor... For about $100 more I can buy a bran new dishwaher. This one is only 3 years old....Very disappointed in my first whirlpool product....but a new one could be the way to go. I can install that myself no problem. Thanks so much. I'll let you know if it was the capacitor"
