Led light above the normal cycle is continuosly flashing. will not com on will not run
An angel of mercy on another blog posted this solution and it worked for me as well. My Whirlpool Quiet Partner Dishwasher would not work due to the CLEAN light flashing in 7 interval sequences. I followed these steps and my dishwasher is not working perfectly...hope it works for you:
"Well for mine which is a Whirlpool Gold Model # GU2400XTPS3, I found the seq of buttons that I had to push to reset the curcuit board. I think it may of been in this forum somewhere. But I had to push - Sani Rinse, Heated Dry, Sani Rinse, Heated Dry, and then the dishwasher went through it's diagnostic cycle and then after that the light stopped blinking and the dishwasher works great. Supposily, there is a Product Tech Sheet behide the kick panel of every dishwasher, but mine was gone so I had to find the information on the internet. You might want to do a serach for the correct seq of buttons you have to push to reset the curcuit board. If you know for sure that the heating element is bad, you will have to order one. "
1. Close the door
2. Press Hi Temp, Sani Rinse, Hi Temp, Sani Rinse
3. All the the lights should come on and a diagnostic process will initiate.
4. Wait about 10 minutes and your dishwaser will be ready.
Note: If Hi Temp & Sani Rinse do not start the diagnostic process try Sani Rinse & Heated Dry instead.

My Whirlpool Quiet Partner 1 Clean light is blinking and the diswasher will not reset with cancel or allow me to start a new cycle. Can I reset? Why is it blinking?
Sounds like its waiting for you to press the start button or close the door.can you press the cancel/drain button and have the drain motor come on. try light cycle and press start. is the light cycle now blinking?
My Quiet Partner III stopped working.
If I play with the buttons I can get it to start, then it does not complete a cycle.
Should I just bite the bullet and replace the computer - we had a tech in and had no clue and left!
I have a suspicion that the problem may be related to hot water. I can actually get a full cycle out of the machine sometimes if no hot water had been used almost all day (showers, clothes washer, etc.). So the dishwasher will wash. But only rarely. I am having the hot water heater checked to see whether one of the elements is gone. This was a very expensive dishwasher and I am pretty disappointed at it just quitting like it does. If the hot water is the problem, then it is even worse, since you'd think the design would permit the cycle to finish anyway. Whomever designed this product to fail like this isn't a very good engineer. I'll keep you posted on my results. Meanwhile, if you check the water and find that's you're problem, also, please let me know.
I had a similar problem. So I bought a new computer for it. It didn't fix the problem. It turned out to be the button pannel. With all of moisture surrounding it steam go into the buttons and caused all kinds of faulse info that the computer could not interpt. Had to buy new button pannel and problem was fixed.

My problem is virtually identical. My model is GU2548XTPS3. The "clean" LED flashes 7 times slowly and pauses, then flashes 7 times and pauses, etc. When I set the options and press start, the "start" LED blinks 3 times fast and goes off. The other LEDs stay on and the "time" displays "--" and the "clean" LED flashes as described above (7 times, pause, etc.). After about a minute, the other option LEDs go out and only the "clean" blinks as described.
When I press "cancel" the timer shows "2" and I can hear the drain pump go on. Again, the "clean" LED blinks and pauses as above. After 2 minutes, the timer counts down and the pump stops.
No combination of cleaning cycle options seems to work. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I have the same problem. The clean light is flashing. I tried this solution, did not work. I press cancel/drain and can hear the drain motor run. But after this if I open & close the dishwasher, click on light & try to start the light above start/resume blinks , clean LED continues to blink, nothing starts.
I have the same problem. When I select a normal wash cycle and hit start, the "Status Sensing Clean" LED light blinks on and off. If I hit the cancel button, the drain motor kicks and the time remaining display shows 2. After the two minutes, the Status Sensing Clea" LED is still blinking. I unplugged the dishwasher in hopes that whatever computer chip in it would reset, however, the Status Sensing Clean" LED still blinks when I plug it back in. It is two and a half years old and is unusable in this condition.
Any help would be appreciated.
We had exactly the same problem and when i tried the solution at the bottom of the page....sani rinse...heated dry.....sani rinse....heated dry, it ran through the diagnotic and now it works great.
THANK YOU
Quiet Partner III, I found the normal light flashing one night and dashes in the time remaining space and the dishwasher was not set to run. I removed power and replaced hoping the circuit would reset on the board but the normal light and heated dry came on with the dashes after which the heated dry turned off and the normal light started blinking again. Found the manual and tried to start diagnostics door closed, or opened and it did not make any difference. Any ideas?
Normal light blinks, diagnostics does not start with door open or closed, power interrupted turns on normal and heated dry leds and dashes in time remaining. And then heat dry turns off and normal blinks. no response from any buttons.
the light above the "Normal" button keeps flashing. Â the only thing i can do to make it stop is by unplugging the entire dishwasher. Â i can't do anything with it right now. Â
Quiet Partner 1 - I have the same problem and it won't fix. I don't want to buy a new panel but may have to it sounds like.
My Whirlpool Gold Quiet Partner III, is not running. When I turn on the power,the top sprayer is not working, The bottom is turning and spraying water (all while the washer is empty). How do I fit it.
