Kenmore Elite dishwasher (model 665): not doing anything. Just shows two blank lines in the display like two small hyphens. Can anyone help? Tried the reset trick...nothing happens.
Thanks for your suggestion. We didn't get to try it. Called Sears; technician came and said the panel was fried, so we had it replaced. The dishwasher was seven years old. Good to know about the tech sheet in the toe panel though. Thank you!Thanks for your suggestion. We didn't get to try it.

Hey Steve,Sorry it took me so long to answer i was offline and my add is not supposed to displayed when i am off line so sorry about that. Now then on that dishwasher with the hum and no water circulation it sounds as if the main wash motor is jammed up for some reason it could be that the motor itself is defective or as simple as something such a piece of debris such as broken glass or almost anything caught in the motor causing it to not turn on,by disassembling the wash motor you can see if something is caught in,if nothing is caught in its a (sorry to say) the motor itself thats bad and would need to replaced.The reason the water drains even though it will not circulate is because of the separate drain pump that is working Please reply back after disassembling the pump to check for debris if ya need further assistance. Thanks for using Fixya.Com,GENE
Kenmore dishwashers should be recalled!! Their poorly designed computer circuit boards are all malfunctioning around 15 months. Look on the inside top of your door. Do you see a instructions? There should be some about your Heat Dry button and holding it down for 4 seconds to reset your computer board. Read and try it first. It's like rebooting a computer.
Nearly all Kenmore dishwashers have a thermal fuse inside the operator console. If the fuse blows, it will exhibit the symptoms you describe. If you post back with a COMPLETE model number (located around the tub opening with the door open), I can verify, provide you with a part number, and explain to steps required to replace it.
NOTE: "665" is the manufacturer code, which identifies the manufacturer of your dishwasher as Whirlpool.
