I have a Kenmore dishwasher 665.16372301. It just stopped working. You press the "normal" wash button and start - nothing happens. The "normal" button stays lite for a while, then goes off.
Did any light on the control panel blink? Did it make any noise?
Gene.
light stayed on for a minute or so, then went dark. No blinking
no noise, nothing
We ordered a new control panel and it lasted less than a week. So something else must be causing it to go out
What is the part number of the control panel you replaced? What it does now?
Gene.
I don’t have the part number right now, I ordered it from sears. It doesn’t turn on and none of the panel lights lite, and as a bonus, there is standing water in the bottom
Hi,
I have a question. Hope I reached the correct email address.
On my Neptune, when I energize the door lock wax motor (120v 60hz), the black plunger extends outward normally, but the far end doesn’t quite reach far enough to actuate the microswitch. The schematic id’s that switch as operating the door lock light.
Is the light all it does? Or does the failure of this switch to close also cause the logic board to take further action, such as shutting down the spin cycle? Our symptom is sometimes the drum doesn’t drain fully. Not all the time, just sometimes. The microswitch is very close to "making", so I could see it working sometimes, and sometimes not. Just don’t know if the logic board JUST turns on the light, or does it do more than that.
Also, I have the 35w pump motor. I’m seriously thinking of ordering the 80w pump just to make sure that’s not the problem. No, the pump isn’t clogged at all. Already took that apart. And the washer isn’t in a basement, so the wall drain is only about 36" high. Not too much of a rise.
Thanks,
Rick
