This is a bad control board that if replaced will only repeat in a short time .My advice is to contact the manufacturer and complain,you have the right as a consumer to do so.

SOURCE: DIshwasher Cycle TIme INcreases by 20 minutes over two years

Try cutting the breaker off for 5 min, This will reset the control. The issue is in order for a dishwasher to clean the dishes properly the water in the dishwasher needs to be at least 120 deg f. If its not the dishwasher keeps adding more time with the heater on to try to achieve this temp. The dishwasher only uses about 1 gallon of water per fill so if the water heater is a ways away or the temp is not hot enough, the water temp in the dishwasher will not reach 120.

SOURCE: Dishwasher during normal cycle gets hung up and does not advance

HI. this is just a control fault. you can try to reset the core program by unplugging this unit for 5 minutes. this will drain all power and reset the core on the timer/control.

If you experience the same situation after this reset, simply replace the control/timer module.

SOURCE: Leaks on Delicate but not on Normal.

Appears to have been the drain holes below the rubber drum flange. My wife cleaned in there for the first time after our speaking to a lowes sales person who owns one as well. When I monitored the next "delicate" load with the front panel off and after cleaning, there was no sign of water anywhere. Hope this was the solution. My wife also mentioned the loads (on delicate) came out damper than the norm but this time it was much drier. Wonder if delicate cycle may fill the washer higher than the normal cycle.

As a footnote we mentioned an occasional musty smell would occur and the same sales person said to not only leave the front door ajar but also open the soap drawer. When I checked the service manual I noticed the unit has a vent hose which vents into the soap drawer. All makes sense when you consider a front load is much tighter sealed than a top load.

SOURCE: Error code 2H

The control panel needs to be replaced (indicated by the "2H" error code displayed at the start of the cycle).
BTW - The number 1 displayed at the end of the cycle indicates the cycle has timed out (i.e., it doesn't mean 1 minute remaining). Hence the continued running of the unit. Until you replace the control panel, you'll have to manually cancel the cycle at this point.

Samsung DMT300RFW dishwasher is stopping mid cycle without draining, continuously flashes Heavy / Delicate. Power off/on, and press buttons to drain. Cleaned out water flow assembly - same issue.

Disconnect the power cord from the outlet and wait for about 2 minutes. Plug the power cord in again. The computer board will probably reset itself, anf there should no longer be a problem

Samsung dishwasher heavy and delicate lights blink and cycle stops

The lights that are blinking are indicating an error code--the particular code you describe is a "heater error". You will have to check the circuit for an open heater element, loose or broken wire, defective main control board. The part number for the main board is DE92-02256C. Hope I helped you!

My Samsung Dishwasher keeps flipping cycles during the course of its run. I set it to "normal" and it ends up on "delicate". Dishes seem to be clean, but are still wet after the 2 hour run time. Help...

I'll bet that Delicate light is flashing, which is actually indicating an error. You didn't mention your model number, but in most Samsung dishwashers I'm familiar with, that light indicates a Drain Error. You may have something hard caught in the impeller of your drain pump, or you might have a bad ECS sensor. In any case, it's time to call a dishwasher repair technician. For Samsung dishwashers, I recommend calling Sears Service (1-800-4MY-HOME or 1-800-469-4663).

All my lights on the front of the dishwasher are blinking at me & stops running after 3 minutes into the cycle. What is the cause of this & of course, I am two months past my warranty. Help.

If three lights are blinking (normal, heavy, quick)... I just had this same problem, and I think I figured it out. There was water on the bottom from the last cycle, so I pressed HEAVY and DELICATE at the same time for 3 seconds (you'll see it printed on the control panel), and the unit drained. I was then able to start the new cycle normally without the error. Hope that helps!
