remove the bottom access covers on the bottom of dishwasher. turn on the dishwasher with water valve in off position so you can here the motor running,while its on, find the breaker and turn off power.you will here motor stop. disconnect power wires from power box on right hand side,then disconnect water line open the dishwasher door and at the top remove screws holding dishwasher in place. pull dishwasher out from bottom.you may have to adjust bottom adjustable screw legs. pull it out and check sides where springs are for the door to open and close. it may have came loose.
This is a possible sign that the water pump has failed in some way or the control circuit for the water pump has failed. You MIGHT be able to access the pump without pulling the dishwasher out of the cabinet space through the front kick panel. You may have to remove a few screws to get it off. You'll have to work low, on your belly, but it'll beat taking the dishwasher out and turning it on its side. Especially considering it's probably still full of water!
With the machine on and "running" at the point where it's supposed to be spraying or draining, check for voltage at the pump. If you see 120V there, the pump motor has failed. If you don't see any voltage, the control board assembly has most likely failed in some way. It's located at the top of the door. Again, remove a few screws and tilt it out. I would first check for a blown fuse, burnt board, etc.
I hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need any further assistance in this matter.
The fuse is in the control panel on the right hand side after you open the panels 6 screws. The replacement fuse kit comes with a wire harness that must be used to prevent the new fuse from blowing.
Does the washer heat the water during the hot cycle. If it does, your soap dispenser module in the door is faulty. To install, you need to pull power plug out first,then sit on a chair in front of the door and then open the door towards yourself. Once open unscrew those screws along the perimeter of the door to enable you to remove outer panel. Once off, you can view how to remove soap dispenser. If water does not get hot, check the heater element and/or the reset (over temperature switch). Note, top rotator must move freely as well to allow hot water dispersion which on some occasions activates the soap dish. On other occasions it uses a solenoid switch.
Turn the plastic center screw counter clockwise. The bottom spray bar is supposed to be loose so it will rotate under water pressure. Rattling maybe coming from diswasher/cabinet contact, or debris caught in the main pump or drain pump, or the food disposer.
