Most likely, you will have to contact the service center. But you can also try to repair the dishwasher yourself, just follow this step-by-step instruction - https://washingcodes.com/kenmore-dishwasher-troubleshooting/
I'd guess that the clock timer motor has a lubrication issue and is slowing down. A new one may be only to fix.
Try Appliancepartspro, or other online appliance parts sites.
Usually, they are quite helpful.

This is a known issue for GE dishwashers and may be similar for other
models too. The fix is simple. The noise is due to
vibration of the arm for the middle sprayer. Just secure it with
a tie wrap or wire and the noise should be gone.
Refer to the following link for my earlier response to a similar issue which fixed the problem.

Hi Dirty Dish gang.
After having 2 appliance repairmen here, I now have the latest scoop on our dishwasher problems, $200 later!
Los Angeles IS currently having hard water issues. Also, all the new cleaning gels etc. are actually a cause of our dishwasher problems.
So, here is what we need to do:
1. Use Cascade POWDER detergent only. Make sure is is just "plain" no "scented" or "complete" or gel, etc. (I have tried a phosphate free powder and gel and this is a cause of our problem as well!)
2. Use Jet Dry in the dispenser (set it to a 2-3 opening)
3. Make sure water is at least 120 degrees
4. Only run dishwasher on "normal" setting. All others just run it longer, hence causing more water stains.
5. Do not pre-wash dishes! You can knock of chunks with a "non" soapy brush, but don't rinse (the oils actually help to clean the dishes)
6. Do not wash sponges in dishwasher.
Acid Wash:
The repairman just gave my washer an Acid Wash today.
It says it is an acid derived from lemon, I got mine from Carters appliance in Torrance, CA for about $19.
I am to run a normal cycle with the above mentioned Cascade after this "acid cycle" is finished.
If you are still having problems:
Monthly maintenance:
Glass Magic:
Buy a box of Glass Magic (near the Cascade) Use 1 Tbsb in main detergent compartment of dishwasher along with the Cascade, till washer starts working again.
White Vinegar:
You can run an empty dishwasher with white vinegar once a month. Fill a bowl with 2 cups vinegar and place on bottom rack. Then run as a normal cycle...this allows vinegar to disperse slowly.
So far it seems to be working. Good luck.

sounds like a bad solder connection on the heater relay of your control unit. more than likely you will need a new control unit. part number 266746

This is caused by a water leak into the base pan,it will trigger the anti flood and the machine will continously drain out even with the door open,you need to establish what is leaking,if you leave the appliance standing for a few days it will start again as the water will evaporate however if the fault returns you will definetly have aleak on the appliance which will require further investigation.
