Maytag Panel shows 21

My control pannel shows 21 and won’t change unless I reset the power

Gene sometime it resets and works and sometime I have to leave it shut down for a while to get it to reset.

It will work as I said then sometime I have to leave it off for a while and then it will reset and work again

…What does it do at this point? Does it wash, drain or stays silent?..

I still need you to answer this question.

When I get it ti reset it works it does everything wash drain dry it totally works and every now and then it goes back to 21 and I have to reset it again and then it will work again totally for a while

Sounds very unusual. It can be a loose connection somewhere as well as a bad control board.

If it does it not very often I would keep use the dishwasher until it will die.
