Hello,
Welcome to FixYa.
Based on your post it may just be a loose/burnt connection in the dishwasher junction box.
**Now I would start by first shutting off the breaker...safety first**
Then removing the kick plate ( access panel at the bottom )...
...and checking the wiring at the junction box for the dishwasher 120vac supply line.
Remove the murret's and visually inspect the wire for "resistance burn" and strip the wires back and install new fastener's if necessary to repair.
i.e.
This is actually quite common to find a wire connector come loose due to improper fastening and once the unit is in use for a while the connections heat & cool, become loose from normal operating vibrations and burn up from all the added heat caused by "resistance".
Typically this will manifest in just the manner you've described. It is possible the control may be the culprit, but I'd check the jinction first.
Let me know what you find and I'll try to assist you further if necessary. I'd still suggest looking into the possible recall for your machine though.
Regards,
Macmarkus :)
