How-to help

Clean light stays on
The dishwasher won't start a new cycle unless it detects that the door opened after the previous cycle.
Check/Repair

Control lock LED is on but not accepting key presses,
Accidentally turned on or control detected keypad problem.
Check/Repair

Sanitized LED blinks at end of cycle
Control could not confirm Sanitation water temperature was achieved
Check/Repair
The heating element must stay on for 10 minutes when heating water for the sanitation cycle and water temperature must reach 150 degrees. Check incoming water temperature. If incoming water temperature is below 120 degrees, the heating element may not heat the water to 150 degrees. If incoming water temperature is above 150 degrees the heating element may not stay on for 10 minutes so the sanitation error may occur. If incoming water temperature is okay, check the heating element for damage. Replace the heating element if it's damaged or it doesn't heat.
