This dishwasher repair guide gives step-by-step instructions on how to replace the control panel in your dishwasher. Replace the dishwasher control panel when keys are stuck or the electronic control board doesn't respond to button presses. You can do a resistance check on the control panel in your dishwasher using a volt/ohm meter with precision needle probes to determine whether the control panel keys work properly. If a button on the control panel doesn't work, replace the control panel on your dishwasher with a manufacturer-approved dishwasher part.
Use the steps in this guide to replace the control panel on some Kenmore, Whirlpool, KitchenAid, JennAir, Maytag, Amana, GE, Frigidaire, Electrolux, LG and Samsung dishwashers.
