my kenmore dishwasher wont start

Asked May 3, 2012, 01:02 AM — 1 Answer
My kenmore elite dishwasher shut downed for some reason I dont know. No light indicator at all. I already replaced the control board and thermal fuse attached to the control board but it didn't fix the problem.

I also asked my electrician to check on the power from the breaker but breaker is working fine.

I bought the dishwasher from Los Angeles California and imported here in the philippines, my problem there is no service technichian for the said dishwasher.


Hope you can help on problem and thanks in advance!

It sounds like you have a door switch that is faulty or the latch is not closing properly. Here are some manuals that will help: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8010163/Whir...ishwashers.zip
The manuals are for Whirlpool who makes Kenmore products. You need to get a meter to check the switch. You will have to turn power off to unit and take off rear cover on door to get to the switch, but it's explained in the books. Let us know what you find.
