The dishwasher seems to wash okay but it will not shut off the timer was at 42 the first time so we opened it and the dishes were clean. Then with the second wash it was stuck at 82 and just kept running. Hitting cancel does nothing. So opened it again. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thank you
