I have the above model dishwasher, it goes thru the complete cycle but it does not dry the dishes, it does not heat-up.
I have a Kenmore 665 about 3 years old
Over the last couple months the touch pads have stopped working and I am now down to one control the water miser!
Do I need a new control pad and is that easy to install ?
Thank you for any sudgetstions

Replace the electronic control board.Its located under the panel you select cycles from.

It appears your dispenser wax switch has failed in this instance.
For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question

Hello,
Welcome to FixYa.
The issue with your dishwasher is more than likely the "thermal fuse" inside the control panel...it is all too common with those machines unfortunately.
I've attached a link at the bottom which will show step by step how to repair your machine.
You will first need to retrieve a new fuse, part number 8193762.
**IT IS A REVISED FUSE KIT TO THE ORIGINAL (designed to prevent this from happening in the future), BUT COMES WITH THE PARTS AND INSTRUCTIONS REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR/UPDATE. AS SHOWN BELOW.**
i.e.
these are available at most local brick & mortar parts vendors or on-line at depots such as "repairclinic.com" or "searspartsdirect.com" to name a couple.
In the video just follow the instruction as per removing the panel and turn the power off of course and you'll be fine.

touch pad does not let cycle start
lock on light blinks
have already changed out the control panel and still have the smae problem
Touch pads are not working on my Kenmore 665. The touchpad lights up for a few seconds and then goes off.
After loving this dishwasher for about 1-2 years, it will only do a wash/rinse cycle, but will not go to the dry cycle. I actually can't tell if it is on wash/rinse, but it does the water action, then pauses, drains, and starts it all over again. It will run for hours doing this, and never seems to progress in its cycle. Since it's a digital not a manual panel, I cannot crank it forward to continue the cycle. Ah, the good ole days. Any ideas?
have had dishwasher 5 yrs it goes through the cycle but doesn't heat up ,have tried on all temperatures will work at random ,cant find anything in the trouble shooter page
