Kitchenaid Dishwasher Control Panel lights - some don't light up

Need help with Control Panel lights...some work, others don't. Trying to start wash, and when you press the Normal wash, it doesn't light up. The cancel light keeps coming on when "start" is pressed.

It seems as thought the "touch" sensors are bad..any suggestions??

cycle stops - no lights - press cancel drain its led blinks. -press any other key the rinse only light blinks.

    before receiving your response i arrived at the same cause - with the panel loose evrytime the cycle stopped and led's were blinking i touched the ribbon cable and the led's and washer acted normal. i will try the pencil eraser fix but it also could be a cold solder joint on the oin connector itself. the ribbon is terminated in a connector with female pins that mate to a male pin connector on board i will let u know.

About the only thing to try would be to remove the inner door panel to get to the control bd then you will see a mylar ribbon looks like a fat piece of scotch tape pull up on the plastic connector that holds it in and pull the ribbon out then get a clean pencil eraser and gently clean the ribbon and put it back in dont forget to push the locking tab back down then try it again and let me know

Can you explain the issue in detail - is your dishwasher not working at all, or the buttons continue to be lit up, etc?

First and foremost, check the dooe switch to see if it is functioning properly.

Probably a keypad gone bad. Try replacing the keypad.

There is a troubleshooting guide behind the foot kick panel. It gives a sequence to test for a bad keypad. You can try that sequence to be sure.

SOURCE: the light on the buttons that say cancel and normal are flashing and the dishwasher won't turn on.

first thing to try is to disconnect power for 15 minutes and then try again if goes into default again take off bottom panel and behind the black trim will be a tech sheet see if it gives yousome diagonostics sounds like it may be the computer if the power off and on doesnt make it work,.

Control panel stopped working, no lights

The most common problem on washing machines and dishwasher is failure of the electronics, usually the circuit board. As you have already had a problem (sanitize cycle) I am afraid it sounds like you need to call an engineer. Replacing the electronics will be expensive, but it may be loose connections only. :(

Model KUDS30FXSS1 Kitchenaid dishwasher control panel stopped working at the end of a cycle.

I had a similar problem: unresponsive buttons, then the 1 hour wash button led was on but the other buttons weren't working at all.
I power off for more than 30 seconds and after that everything return to normal.
Thank you for the hint!

Kitchenaid dishwasher KUDS01DJ Rinse only light is flashing. control panel is frozen with only rinse only light flashing. does not respond to pressing of any buttons. I flipped the breaker switch,...

Ok, Turn breaker off at breaker panel. Just off then on. The rinse only light should be on.....not flashing. Now press the start button first and hold; then press the cancel button. That should cancel all lights. Then press wash button then start. If the light is still flashing after you turn off breaker....you might have a bigger problem. May need new control panel.

Kitchenaid kud101tj "cancel drain" light and "Rinse Only" lights are falhing and DW won't start???

Don't know if this will help, but when I had problems with my control panel (lights blinked and nothing worked) I fixed it by disconnecting the power completly from the dishwasher at the fuse box. Leave it off 10 or 15 minutes and then repower. That reset mine and it worked again...has happened several times and each time I could fix it by cutting the power. If that doesn't work, you may need a new control panel.
